Wrong Network? If you sent to the wrong network address, funds may be irretrievable. Always double-check network before sending!
If you accidentally sent a different token:
  • Native POL: Should show in /balance under POL balance
  • Other tokens: Contact support - may be retrievable
  • Wrong stablecoin (DAI, USDT): May be convertible
Only USDC is used for trading. Other tokens need conversion.
Common mistakes:
  • Sent Ethereum USDC to Polygon address: May be lost
  • Sent Solana USDC to Polygon address: May be lost
  • Solution: Always use network-specific addresses from /fund
Contact support immediately if this happens.
If transaction stuck pending:
  • On Polygon: Usually resolves in minutes, try increasing gas
  • On Ethereum: May need to speed up with higher gas
  • Bridge transactions: Can take 10-30 minutes, be patient
  • Check block explorer for transaction status
