Transferring Binance Coin (BNB) from Binance to MEXC (formerly MXC) is a straightforward process, but it requires careful attention to network selection and address details. This guide walks you through the essential steps to ensure your funds arrive safely and quickly.

First, log into your MEXC account. Navigate to "Assets" and then "Deposit." Search for "BNB" in the list of supported cryptocurrencies. MEXC supports multiple networks for BNB deposits, including BEP-2 (Binance Chain), BEP-20 (Binance Smart Chain, also known as BSC), and ERC-20 (Ethereum network). This is the most critical step: you must choose the correct network that matches the one you will use on Binance. For most users, BEP-20 (BSC) is the fastest and lowest-cost option. Copy the deposit address displayed for your chosen network. Also, note the "Memo" or "Tag" field if it is required for BEP-2 deposits; you will need to enter this later.

Next, log into your Binance account. Go to "Wallet" and then "Fiat and Spot." Find your BNB balance and click "Withdraw." In the withdrawal interface, paste the MEXC deposit address you copied into the "Address" field. If MEXC provided a Memo/Tag for BEP-2, make sure to enter it correctly. Then, select the network dropdown. This is where you must match the network exactly to the one you chose on MEXC. For example, if you chose BEP-20 on MEXC, you must select BSC (BEP-20) on Binance. Choosing a wrong network (e.g., selecting BEP-2 when you chose BEP-20) will result in the permanent loss of your funds.

Enter the amount of BNB you wish to transfer. Binance will display the network fee (withdrawal fee) and the estimated arrival time. BEP-20 typically has a very low network fee and arrives within minutes. For high-value transfers, consider using BEP-2 on Binance Chain for its stability, but be aware that MEXC may charge a small deposit fee on BEP-2. For low-value or frequent transfers, BEP-20 is almost always the better choice.

After confirming all details, complete any required security verification (such as email or 2FA codes) and submit the withdrawal. Binance will process the transaction and provide a TXID (transaction ID). You can track the status on a block explorer like BscScan (for BEP-20).

Finally, return to MEXC. Go to "Assets" > "Deposit" > "Deposit History" to check the status. Once the blockchain confirms enough blocks, your BNB balance will be credited. Typically, BEP-20 transfers take 5-15 minutes. Once credited, you can use your BNB on MEXC for spot trading, futures, staking, or other features.

Always test with a small amount of BNB before sending a large transfer. Double-check that you have the correct network on both exchanges. If you encounter any delays or issues, MEXC and Binance both offer 24/7 customer support with live chat. Following these steps ensures your Binance Coin moves safely between the two exchanges.
