Depositing locks your tokens into the Cove shielded pool on Solana mainnet. Once the transaction confirms, Cove generates a claim link that encodes everything the recipient needs to redeem the funds. No link is created until the deposit is fully confirmed on-chain.Documentation Index

Deposit flow
Select a token
On the send page, click the token selector on the right side of the amount field and choose SOL, USDC, or USDT.
Enter an amount
Type the amount you want to deposit. The field shows the minimum for the selected token. The Generate claim link button stays disabled until you enter a valid amount at or above the minimum.
Click Generate claim link
Click the Generate claim link button. Cove contacts the server to prepare the deposit transaction and proof. The status panel shows Preparing deposit and generating proof… while this happens.
Sign in your wallet
Your wallet extension opens and asks you to sign the transaction. The status panel shows Waiting for wallet signature…. Review the transaction details and approve it.
Transaction is submitted
Cove submits the signed transaction to Solana. The status panel shows Submitting transaction to Solana….
Confirmation on-chain
Cove waits for the transaction to reach confirmed status on Solana mainnet. The status panel shows Confirming on chain… along with the first characters of the transaction signature. This usually takes a few seconds.
