# How to deposit cryptocurrency to an account balance

In this topic, we will tell you how to deposit funds to your Traiex account so that you can start trading cryptocurrencies. Learn about the available deposit methods and follow the instructions to deposit funds to your account.

Three types of currencies are available for you to deposit: fiat money, stablecoins, or other cryptocurrencies. In these instructions, we will cover the methods to deposit your Traiex balance from another address (hot wallet or DeFi platform) with the cryptocurrencies available in the list.
