Which Cryptocurrencies Are Supported for Transfers

Which Cryptocurrencies Are Supported for Transfers

Crypto transfers are coming soon.

We’re working on enabling this feature. In the meantime, here’s what you need to know ahead of launch.

Crypto transfers are executed on the blockchain and are irreversible once confirmed. IG cannot cancel, reverse, or recover a transfer where incorrect details have been provided.

You are responsible for ensuring all transfer details are accurate, including the wallet address, network, token, and any required destination tag or memo. Sending assets using incorrect details will result in permanent loss of funds.

Transfers are typically completed within 10–50 minutes but may take longer depending on blockchain network conditions. Delays due to network congestion are outside of IG’s control.

Before initiating a transfer, ensure you understand how crypto transfers work, including the risks associated with on-chain transactions.


Not all cryptocurrencies available to trade on IG are eligible for crypto transfers. Transfer eligibility is separate from trading availability — a token can be tradable on IG but not yet supported for Transfer In.

When you use the Transfer In feature in your IG account, you will only be able to select tokens that are currently supported. If a token is not shown as an option, it is not eligible for transfer at this time.

Which tokens require a destination tag or memo?

Some tokens require an additional reference code — called a destination tag or memo — alongside the wallet address when sending. If a destination tag is required, it will be displayed on screen and must be included. Omitting it may result in funds not being credited or being delayed.

Tokens that currently require a destination tag or memo include:

  1. XRP — Ripple (Numeric tag)

  2. XLM — Stellar (Alpha-numeric memo)

Note: This list reflects current requirements. Always check the destination tag field shown in the IG app when initiating a transfer — requirements can vary by token and network.


Can transfer eligibility change after launch?
