How to deposit fiat
You can easily deposit currencies onto the Kinesis monetary platform, using ACH transfers, SWIFT or domestic wire transfers.
ACH and SWIFT transfers (direct bank transfers, such as direct debit or bill payments) are available for all users wishing to deposit their funds in any of the fiat currency options available on the Kinesis platform.
In most instances users can deposit their funds without the need for currency conversion, however, in some cases, their funds will be converted into the US Dollar ($).
Fiat currencies that do not require conversion: US Dollar ($), British Pound (£), Euro (€), Australian Dollar (A$), Canadian Dollar (C$), Swiss Franc (CHF), Singaporean Dollar (S$) and United Arab Emirates Dirham (AED).
Fiat currencies that will be automatically converted to the UD Dollar at the current prevailing interbank rate: Chinese Yuan Renminbi (¥), Hong Kong Dollar (HK$), Indonesian Rupiah (Rp), Japanese Yen(JP¥) and New Zealand Dollar (NZ$).
As the year progresses, Kinesis will continue to expand fiat on-ramping solutions, with enhanced fiat depositing options to follow.
Step 1: Click on the ASSETS tab from the left-hand navigation panel. (You can also use the deposit function in the top panel)
Step 2: Click open against the fiat account you wish to deposit funds into (USD in this example).
The deposit screen will provide the Kinesis bank account details that you need to make a transfer to in order to deposit fiat funds.
Step 3: Create a bank transfer from your bank account to the Kinesis bank account, including the payment reference contained in the description field on this screen.
Make sure you include the Payment Reference contained in the description field on this screen.
The Kinesis Payment Reference, (starting with KM followed by numbers, eg KM12345678) is a number the Kinesis team uses to identify the account to which the funds should be deposited. If you do not include your KM number as a payment reference, Kinesis will be unable to deposit your funds.
Please note: Allow 3-5 working days for the funds to clear. Once the Kinesis operations team have confirmed receipt of funds in the Kinesis bank account, your Kinesis account will be credited with the deposited funds and you shall receive an email confirming this transaction.
How to deposit BTC
Step 1: Click on the ASSETS tab from the left-hand navigation panel.
Step 2: Select the BTC currency tile from the top navigation bar, then choose RECEIVE from the BTC OPTIONS drop-down menu.

Once the transaction is complete, you will see your deposited BTC in your account along with an email notifying you about your deposit. You will also be able to view the transaction in your recent transactions.
Please Note: We do not recommend transferring BTC directly from an exchange. It is advised to send BTC directly from an e-wallet.
How to move KVT to your Kinesis account
