ChessBit's $5 minimum deposit, the $10,000 single-transaction ceiling, the per-level deposit limits, and what happens to a deposit that's over a limit.

Minimum Deposit
The minimum deposit is $5 (USD value), in any supported coin. Exchange and network fees come out of what you send, so a $5 transfer can arrive as slightly less than $5. Send about $10 to be safe.
If you send less than $5, the funds are not lost: the deposit is held instead of credited, and support can either credit it manually or return it. Contact us with your transaction ID if this happens. Deposit addresses, supported coins and networks are in How to deposit.
Maximum Single Deposit
A single deposit can't exceed your level's daily limit (below), and anything over $5,000 gets a source-of-funds check. Single deposits above $10,000 (USD value) are held for a manual check before crediting. Nothing is lost: larger transfers just get a human look first.
Per-Level Deposit Limits
Your verification level sets how much you can deposit overall:
A deposit that would pass a limit is held, not lost. Complete the next verification level and it's credited. While a hold is open, deposits, withdrawals and staked play are paused on the account. If a hold is still unresolved after about 3 days, the deposit may be returned to the sending address.
Limits are measured in USD value at the time of the deposit, whatever coin you send.
