Get Zcash to Play
Three ways to fund your account — no account or KYC required.
Swap Crypto
Already hold BTC, ETH, SOL, or USDT? Swap to ZEC directly from the deposit screen. No account needed — the swap happens in minutes.
Play & Swap →Buy from an Exchange
Purchase ZEC on any major crypto exchange. Most require identity verification. Once purchased, withdraw ZEC to your personal wallet.
Steps:
- Sign up on a crypto exchange
- Buy ZEC with fiat or another crypto
- Withdraw to your Zcash wallet
- Deposit to 21z
Get a ZEC Wallet
A Zcash wallet lets you send, receive, and hold ZEC with full privacy. We recommend these two:
ZEC on Solana
Wrapped ZEC (wZEC/zenZEC) is available on Solana via bridges like Zolana and Zenrock. Direct bridge deposits are coming soon — for now, you can swap SOL to native ZEC using the in-app swap.
How to Deposit
Get ZEC
Use any method above — swap crypto, buy from an exchange, or receive from a friend.
Go to a game
Visit Blackjack or Video Poker. You can try demo mode first with 10 ZEC play money.
Click "Deposit Real ZEC"
This creates a private session and generates your unique deposit address.
Copy the deposit address
You'll see a unified address (starts with u1...) and a QR code. Copy it to your wallet.
Send ZEC from your wallet
Paste the address in your wallet and send any amount (minimum 0.001 ZEC).
Wait for confirmations
3 block confirmations are required. This takes about 10-20 minutes.
Play
Your balance is credited automatically. You're ready to go.
