4. Now you’ll see bank transfer details on your screen — this is the info you need to enter in your bank's app or website. Go to your bank app or online banking, and make a SEPA bank transfer using the details Binance gave you. Once you’ve made the transfer, go back to Binance and click “I’ve sent the funds”.

It usually takes 1–2 business days for the euros to appear in your Binance account, although it can sometimes be faster.

By clicking on the wallet icon and then clicking on “overview” you will be able to see the funds you have in the account and check if the euro deposit has already arrived.
