Withdrawals start in the Stake Wallet. Choose where to receive your crypto — a personal wallet or a platform such as Kraken — then get that destination’s deposit address. You can copy it into Stake to prepare the transfer.
Keep both screens open: the receiving service gives you the crypto, network and address to use in the withdrawal form.
Choose where to receive your funds
A personal wallet is an app whose access you manage. An exchange is a platform that can receive, buy or sell cryptocurrencies.
Before withdrawing:
- check the email associated with your account;
- review and enable the protections offered in security settings;
- open the deposit page of the service receiving the funds;
- check that it accepts your chosen crypto and network.
Withdraw your funds step by step
Open the Stake Wallet and select Withdraw.
Select the cryptocurrency you want to send.
In the destination wallet or exchange, open the deposit function for the same cryptocurrency.
Choose a network supported on both sides.
Copy the receiving address and memo or tag when required.
Paste the information into Stake and enter the amount.
Review the asset, network, address, minimum, fees and net amount.
Confirm using the requested method, then track the withdrawal in the history.
Where can you send your crypto?
You can withdraw to a personal wallet or the deposit address provided by an exchange such as Kraken. In both cases, the destination must accept exactly the same asset and network as Stake.
Copy the current address from the receiving service and choose a network offered at both ends. If that combination is unavailable, choose another compatible destination.
Address, network and memo: what should you check?
Stake asks for additional information for certain assets. EOS uses a memo and XRP a destination tag: copy this value from the receiving service whenever it appears.
A small test withdrawal can be useful for a new destination if the displayed minimum and fees allow it. It is not required.
Why might the amount received be different?
The Stake form displays the minimum, fees and withdrawal amount. The receiving service may also apply its own crediting rules.
Follow your withdrawal until it arrives
Timing depends on the cryptocurrency, network conditions and confirmations required by the recipient. A withdrawal can be approved by Stake without immediately appearing on the receiving exchange.
Start with your Wallet history. When a transaction ID is available, open it in the network explorer to distinguish a transfer awaiting confirmations from a crediting issue at the receiving service. If the delay seems unusual, contact the service responsible for that stage with the transaction ID.
FAQ
Can I withdraw directly to Kraken?
Yes, if Kraken provides a deposit address for the same crypto and network offered by Stake.
Why does Stake ask for a code?
Depending on your account setup, Stake may request a 2FA code, an email code or a new verification through the social service used at registration.
What if the networks do not match?
Do not confirm. Choose a compatible destination or return to the asset selection. Recovery after sending through the wrong network is not guaranteed.
How long does a withdrawal take?
Timing depends on Stake’s processing, network confirmations and the receiving service. The transaction ID lets you follow progress in the network explorer.
