How To Convert or Top-Up Your Balance with EURt & Other Crypto

The CoinGate team has enabled an additional balance feature for merchants. This new change allows businesses to top-up their account balances with a SEPA bank transfer (EUR).

After making an EUR deposit, the payment will be transferred to your CoinGate account as EURt stablecoin at a 1:1 rate. 

As a result, merchants will be able to use a stable currency at any time when they need to issue a refund or for trading. 

It’s an improvement that should be helpful for companies that often deal with refund requests. 

Having a non-volatile balance of EURt can perfectly serve as an account exclusively for deducting funds needed to pay out refunds to customers. 

How to top-up CoinGate balance with EURt using a bank transfer?

Log into your CoinGate business account and click on ‘Balances > Accounts’ in the menu section. 

You will find two top-up options in the top-right corner – “Top up EUR” and “Top up Crypto”. 

“Top up EUR” is the option intended for SEPA bank transfers. Find the alternative guide for “Top up Crypto” below.

The deposited EUR payment is automatically converted to EURt and placed in your account once it arrives. 

1. Click the ‘Top up EUR’ button in the top-right corner of the page.

2. EUR top-up instructions will show up. It’s time to make a bank transfer to CoinGate. Send any desired EUR amount. It is recommended to copy and paste bank details to make sure they’re correct.

3. Double check if the “Reason for payment” is provided correctly. Example: Deposit Business xxxxx
4. Wait for the deposit to be transferred to your CoinGate account in the form of EURt stablecoin.

You can now use your EURt balance for issuing refunds to customers or trading.
