How do I calculate the network fees for sending Bitcoin Cash (BCH) for a sell order?

To complete your sell order smoothly, it's important to send your Bitcoin Cash (BCH) promptly and with the correct network fees.

Key points:

• Fees & speed: BCH transactions usually have low fees (e.g., 0.00001 BCH), but they may vary slightly based on network activity. Choosing a suitable fee ensures faster confirmation.
  
  
• 3-hour time limit: Your BCH must arrive within 3 hours after placing your sell order. Late transactions can lead to delays or cancellation.

How to calculate network fees:

• Use a blockchain explorer like Blockchair Bitcoin Cash Explorer to check current fee levels.
  
  
• Sending from a wallet (not an exchange) is recommended. Wallets let you set fees and usually process transactions faster than exchanges.

Sending tips:

• One transaction per order: Always send the full amount in a single transaction. Multiple transactions can cause errors or delays.
  
  
• Check the address: BCH does not require a destination tag, but make sure you're sending to a valid Bitcoin Cash address, not a Bitcoin (BTC) address.
  
  

How to confirm your transaction:

1. Go to Blockchair Bitcoin Cash Explorer.
2. Enter your sending wallet address in the search bar.
3. Find your transaction by checking the recipient address and amount.
4. Make sure the transaction status is marked "Confirmed."
   
   

If your transaction is pending or failed, the fee may have been too low. You might need to resend with a higher fee.

What if the transaction is delayed?

If your BCH arrives after the 3-hour window, the order may not be processed. In that case, we’ll contact you to return the BCH to your wallet.

Important: Refunds can take up to one month, as they are handled manually. Please make sure to send your BCH in time to avoid this delay.
