How do I send crypto to someone directly in a chat?
Open a chat, tap the attachment icon, choose crypto, set the amount, and confirm. The transfer lands in their wallet in seconds.
Note that the recipient needs to have their wallet activated for the crypto to arrive. If they haven’t set it up yet, they can do so during the process – once they receive a notification that you’re sending them funds, they’ll be prompted to activate their wallet before the transfer completes.
Sending crypto in EXTRA SAFE works the same way as sending a file – it lives in the conversation. The transaction is signed on your device, broadcast to the blockchain, and delivered to your contact's wallet without you ever leaving the chat.
Steps
1.
Open a chat with your contact.
2.
Tap the attachment icon.
3.
Select Send crypto.
4.
Choose the asset (ETH, USDT) and enter the amount.
5.
Review the network fee and confirm with your PIN or biometrics.
