+# Deposit

-> Bridge and swap assets to Polymarket
+> Bridge assets from any supported chain to fund your Polymarket account

-The Polymarket Bridge API enables seamless deposits and withdrawals between multiple networks and Polymarket.
+Polymarket uses **USDC.e** (Bridged USDC) on Polygon as collateral for all trading. The Bridge API lets you deposit assets from Ethereum, Solana, Bitcoin, and other chains—they're automatically converted to USDC.e on Polygon.

-### USDC.e on Polygon
+## How It Works

-**Polymarket uses USDC.e (Bridged USDC) on Polygon as collateral** for all trading activities. USDC.e is the bridged version of USDC from Ethereum, and it serves as the native currency for placing orders and settling trades on Polymarket.
+1. Request deposit addresses for your Polymarket wallet
+2. Send assets to the appropriate address for your source chain
+3. Assets are bridged and swapped to USDC.e automatically
+4. USDC.e is credited to your wallet for trading

-When you deposit assets to Polymarket:
+## Create Deposit Addresses

-1. You can deposit from various supported chains (Ethereum, Solana, Arbitrum, Base, etc.)
-2. Your assets are automatically bridged/swapped to USDC.e on Polygon
-3. USDC.e is credited to your Polymarket wallet so you can trade on any market
+Generate unique deposit addresses linked to your Polymarket wallet. See the [Bridge API Reference](/api-reference/introduction) for full request and response schemas.

-## Base URL

+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \

-## Key Features
+### Address Types

-* **Multi-chain deposits**: Bridge assets from EVM chains (Ethereum, Arbitrum, Base, etc.), Solana, and Bitcoin
-* **Multi-chain withdrawals**: Withdraw USDC.e to any supported chain and token
-* **Automatic conversion**: Assets are automatically bridged and swapped
-* **Simple addressing**: One deposit address per blockchain type (EVM, SVM, BTC)
+| Address | Use For                                                  |
+| ------- | -------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `evm`   | Ethereum, Arbitrum, Base, Optimism, and other EVM chains |
+| `svm`   | Solana                                                   |
+| `btc`   | Bitcoin                                                  |

-## Endpoints
+<Warning>
+  Each address is unique to your wallet. Only send assets from supported chains
+  to the correct address type.
+</Warning>

-* `GET /supported-assets` - Get all supported chains and tokens
-* `POST /quote` - Get a quote for a deposit or withdrawal
-* `POST /deposit` - Create deposit addresses for bridging assets to Polymarket
-* `POST /withdraw` - Create withdrawal addresses for bridging assets from Polymarket
-* `GET /status/{address}` - Get transaction status for a given address
+## Deposit Flow
+
+<Steps>
+  <Step title="Get Your Deposit Address">
+    Call `POST /deposit` with your Polymarket wallet address to get deposit
+    addresses.
+  </Step>
+
+  <Step title="Check Supported Assets">
+    Verify your token is supported and meets the minimum deposit amount via
+    `/supported-assets`.
+  </Step>
+
+  <Step title="Send Assets">
+    Transfer tokens to the appropriate deposit address from your source chain.
+  </Step>
+
+  <Step title="Track Status">
+    Monitor your deposit progress using `/status/{address}`.
+  </Step>
+</Steps>
+
+## USDC vs USDC.e
+
+You can deposit either USDC (native) or USDC.e (bridged) to your Polymarket wallet. If you deposit native USDC, you will be prompted to "activate funds," which swaps it to USDC.e via the lowest-fee Uniswap pool (less than 10bp slippage).
+
+## Large Deposits
+
+For deposits over \$50,000 originating from a chain other than Polygon, we recommend using a third-party bridge to minimize slippage:
+
+* [DeBridge](https://app.debridge.finance/)
+* [Across](https://app.across.to/bridge)
+* [Portal](https://portalbridge.com/)
+
+Bridge directly to your Polymarket USDC (Polygon) deposit address. Polymarket is not affiliated with or responsible for any third-party bridge.
+
+## Minimum Deposits
+
+Each asset has a minimum deposit amount. Deposits below the minimum will not be processed. Check `/supported-assets` for current minimums.
+
+## Deposit Recovery
+
+If you deposited the wrong token on Ethereum or Polygon, use these tools to recover your funds:
+
+* **Ethereum deposits**: [recovery.polymarket.com](https://recovery.polymarket.com/)
+* **Polygon deposits**: [matic-recovery.polymarket.com](https://matic-recovery.polymarket.com/)
+
+<Warning>
+  Sending unsupported tokens may cause **irrecoverable loss**. Always verify
+  your token is listed in [Supported Assets](/trading/bridge/supported-assets)
+  before depositing.
