Deposit and withdrawal problems

Common problems

We do our best to ensure that your deposit and withdrawals are quick and smooth, but sometimes, things can happen beyond our control. 

Common Octa deposit problems:

1. Payment not found. This might happen if you submit a deposit request in your Profile but do not send the money to Octa, or if your payment proof is still being verified. Try sending the payment again or uploading proof of payment.
2. Your profile is not verified. Verify your account and resubmit a deposit notification. If you are unable to verify your account, you can submit a refund request.
3. Payment is made from a nonbeneficiary account. Please ensure that you send your deposit payment from an account in your own name.

Common Octa withdrawal problems:

1. Not enough free funds. This might occur because the withdrawal request was made when you had open trades and didn't have enough funds to cover the withdrawal. 
2. Invalid bank account. Please double-check the account details are correct and resubmit the withdrawal request.
3. Withdrawal to another person's account. Please resubmit the withdrawal request to an account in your own name.

If you have a problem with your Octa deposit or withdrawal, please contact us via Live Chat on our website or send us an email at [email protected] with the proof of payment attached, and we'll assist you right away.
