I have had an account with IG for some time now but have never used it to trade. I have used other platforms for buying and selling crypto and would like to learn about transferring my wallets and portfolio to IG, but I don't know how. Where can I find the information I need to read?

Hi @DFewy, 

Thank you for reaching out and for being a part of the IG community!

I’d like to clarify that trading cryptocurrencies with IG is done through CFDs (Contracts for Difference). This means that you’re speculating on the price movements of cryptocurrencies without owning the underlying assets, and we do not offer a wallet service for transferring or storing cryptocurrencies.

If you’re looking to learn more about how trading crypto works with IG, please refer to our comprehensive guide here: https://www.ig.com/en/cryptocurrency-trading . It covers everything you need to know about trading cryptos with us.

Regards,

I have an existing account with IG, but I haven't yet used it for crypto. I’ve been using other platforms for buying and selling cryptocurrency, and I’m now looking to transfer my wallets and portfolio over to IG. However, I’m not sure how to proceed with this transfer process.

Can someone please guide me or provide resources on:

1. Whether IG allows direct cryptocurrency wallet transfers.
2. The steps for transferring my crypto portfolio to IG.
3. Any specific wallet addresses or networks that IG supports for deposits.

Any help or links to relevant articles would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Please refer to the above response.
