Mental Preparation Before Your First Recharge
If this is your first time in Taiwan encountering RedNote RedCoin recharge, first establish three correct understandings:
- ✓ RedCoins Are Not Currency: The "RedCoin Service Agreement" clearly stipulates that RedCoins are not tokens, virtual currency, or prepayment certificates, and have no monetary value.
- ✓ Official Rate Is Fixed: 1 RMB = 10 RedCoins. Any claims of "1:12" or "1:15" ultra-low prices are unreasonable.
- ✓ No Official Direct Payment in Taiwan: RedNote officially does not support Taiwan local payment methods. All TWD recharges must go through specific channels.
- Low-Price Top-Up Trap: Top-ups claiming "750 RedCoins for only 60 RMB" actually require providing account passwords or guiding you to download phishing apps.
- No-Login Top-Up: Tests show that 90% of no-login top-ups are scams to steal accounts.
- Black Card Fraud Risk: Top-ups from unknown sources may use black cards. Once detected by the platform, your account will be banned.
- Apple Tax Loss: If iPhone users recharge in the app, 30% is taken by Apple.
- RedCoin Expiration: After recharge, validity is only 365 days. Hoarding too many is a waste.
Four Safety Checklists for Secure Recharging
When choosing a recharge channel, please confirm the following four points in order:
- Does It Use Official Website Direct Recharge: A legitimate channel should use the official RedNote recharge page (xiaohongshu.com/recharge), logging in with a phone number for direct recharge.
- Does It Ask for Login Password: The official mechanism only requires a phone number and SMS verification code. Any service asking for a login password should be rejected.
- Recipient Name: The merchant name displayed on the payment page should be "Xingyin Information Technology (Shanghai) Co., Ltd.", which is the official operating entity of RedNote.
- Is the Rate Reasonable: The exchange rate of a legitimate channel should be close to the official 1:10. Any significant deviation is a red flag.
2R (RedNote Recharge) adopts the official RedNote website direct recharge mechanism, completing the recharge on the official website via your linked phone number, without requiring a login password. The fund flow is transparent and traceable. This method is completely consistent with the web recharge path recommended by RedNote, ensuring account safety.

Common Questions for First-Time Recharge
Which denomination should I choose for my first recharge?
It is recommended to start with the 98 RMB tier (980 RedCoins). The amount is moderate, not prone to oversupply, and can meet most tipping and unlocking needs.
What should iPhone users pay attention to for their first recharge?
Never recharge directly in the app, otherwise 30% will be taken by Apple. Please use official website direct recharge instead, completing the recharge via 2R with your phone number to enjoy the full 1:10 ratio.
How to verify if a recharge platform is legitimate?
Check three things: ① Does it use the official website direct recharge mechanism? ② Does it only ask for a phone number without requesting a password? ③ Is the exchange rate close to 1:10? If all three are met, it is a legitimate channel.
Can I get a refund after recharging?
According to the "RedCoin Service Agreement", RedCoins are considered sold once purchased, and recharged RedCoins cannot be refunded. Please choose your denomination carefully.
