Send

Section titled “Send”

You can pay:

  • A bWalletX name: $alice or alice@bwalletx.com. Before paying, the wallet checks the name is signed by its owner.
  • Any paymail: for example a HandCash or other paymail address.
  • A BSV address: starts with 1.

Check the amount and recipient on the approval sheet, then confirm. Nothing is sent until you do.

Fees

Section titled “Fees”

Each payment pays a small network fee, usually well under a cent. It is added on top of the amount you send, so if your balance is exactly the amount, the payment can come up a few sats short. See Insufficient funds.

Store prices are different: a $1 theme costs $1 in total, because the network fee is already inside the price. With exactly $1 in your wallet, you can buy it.

If a send fails

Section titled “If a send fails”

The wallet tells you why. Look up the message in Error messages. If nothing there fits, tap Report to b on the error (next release) or email support@bwalletx.com.
