How to receive bitcoin to your Fold bitcoin account

How do I send bitcoin to my Fold account?

  1. Head to the Bitcoin tab, then tap Receive.
  2. Scan QR code or copy your Fold wallet address.
  3. Paste Fold wallet address into your send wallet and initiate transaction.

How do I track an incoming bitcoin transaction?

When the incoming transaction has been picked up in the mempool:

  • The transaction will appear as pending in your bitcoin transaction history.
  • You will receive a push notification letting you know the transaction is pending.

When the incoming transaction has settled:

  • The transaction will appear as settled in your bitcoin transaction history.
  • You will receive a push notification and confirmation email of the transaction.

Why don't I see the transaction in my Fold App yet?

The speed of your transaction may only be controlled only by your sending wallet. Some wallets allow you to pay more to increase the speed of your transaction.

Wallet Address Management

As an added level of security, Fold may automatically generate a new wallet address for you to receive bitcoin at, as soon a previous receive transaction has been settled - always verify that you are sending to the right Fold address before initiating a transaction from your sending wallet.

Why don't I see the receive button in my Fold App yet?

This feature is a phased rollout, and not every user will have immediate access. Users who have been given access will be notified directly by email.
