Bank Deposit Limits on Solid: What You Need to Know

Solid supports bank deposits through regulated payment rails. Deposit limits depend on how the transfer is made, who the sender is, and your verification status. This article explains what to expect so you can deposit with confidence.

1. Two Types of Bank Deposits

✅ First-party deposits (recommended)

These are transfers sent from a bank account in your own name, matching your verified identity.

Limits

  • No per-transaction limit

  • No monthly limit

  • No yearly limit

This is the best option for larger or recurring deposits.


⚠️ Third-party deposits

These are transfers sent from an account not in your name (for example, a friend, family member, or business account).

Limits

  • $4,000 per transaction

  • Additional restrictions may apply depending on the sender

If you need to deposit more than $4,000, use a first-party bank account.


2. KYC & Terms Requirements

To access bank deposits, all users must:

  • Accept Solid’s Terms of Service

  • Complete KYC (individual users) or KYB (business accounts)

Without verification, bank deposit rails are not available.


3. Payment Rail Availability (Why Limits Can Differ)

Bank deposits run on different payment rails depending on your country and setup, such as:

  • SEPA

  • FPS

  • PIX

  • ACH / wire equivalents

Access to each rail is controlled by customer endorsements, which determine:

  • Which rails you can use

  • Applicable transaction rules

  • Eligibility based on region and verification

Not all rails are available to all users.


4. Why You Might See a Limit

You may encounter a limit if:

  • The transfer comes from a third-party account

  • The payment rail used has specific transaction caps

  • The sender does not meet eligibility requirements

  • Your account has not completed KYC/KYB


5. Best Practices

To avoid issues:

  • Use a bank account in your own name

  • Complete KYC before depositing

  • Start with a smaller test transfer if unsure

  • Follow the in-app deposit instructions closely


Summary

  • First-party bank deposits → No limits

  • Third-party deposits → $4,000 per transaction

  • KYC/KYB required for all bank deposits

  • Limits depend on sender, rail, and verification status

If you’re unsure which option applies to you, check the Deposit section in the app or contact support before sending funds.
