The crediting time for crypto receipts depends on the network status, the number of confirmations in the hash, and/or the delay it takes for the network to confirm your transaction.

When a transaction enters the network, it is included in a block of the chain and receives one confirmation; when it is included in the next block, it receives two confirmations, and so on until the necessary confirmations are reached for credit.

 

**The confirmations required for each crypto vary, and are as follows:**

 

**👉Bitcoin (BTC) Sending: **As soon as you make the transaction, wait until there are **at least 6 confirmations **on the Blockchain so that the receipt is credited to your Ripio account. You can see the number of confirmations by entering the transaction hash in these search engines, depending on the network:

- Mainnet: [https://www.blockchain.com/](https://www.blockchain.com/)
- Lightning: [https://explorer.lbtc.io/](https://explorer.lbtc.io/)
  

**👉 Sending ETH, ERC20 tokens, and Polygon network tokens: ** To receive them, please wait until you have **at least 30 confirmations. **The search engines you can use to see how many confirmations your transaction has, depending on the network, are: 

- Mainnet: [https://etherscan.io/](https://etherscan.io/)
- Polygon: <u>[https://polygonscan.com/ ](https://polygonscan.com/)</u>

 

**👉 LTC Sending: **For this cryptocurrency, you need **at least 6 **network confirmations. You can track it through this search engine:**  **[https://live.blockcypher.com/ltc/](https://live.blockcypher.com/ltc/)


**👉 Doge Sending: **Just like BTC and LTC transactions, Doge receiving is credited once it reaches **6 confirmations **. You can check the status of your sending in this search engine: [https://dogechain.info/](https://dogechain.info/)
