A BitcoinEmailAddress links your very long public Bitcoin address to something familiar — your email. This makes Bitcoin simple, as you just need to know an email address.
If you want to send to your friend, you simply use their email. The service is simply pulling their saved bitcoin address, and creating it into a QR code. We don't process any transactions at all, and instead encourage 100% direct wallet-to-wallet interactions. The system can even track the interaction on the public blockchain, so you receive a receipt, if you so wish.
No worries! The recipient will receive an email inviting them to claim their BitcoinEmailAddress. We'll notify you once they are ready, so you can complete any interaction you've started.
Our service supports the three main formats of Bitcoin addresses: Legacy (P2PKH), SegWit (P2SH), and Bech32 (native SegWit). These formats are fully compatible with each other. Lightning Network addresses are not supported at this time, most likely will be added in the future.
Your Bitcoin remains secure. This solution does not handle your Bitcoin directly in any way; it simply links a public Bitcoin address you provide to an email address. All transactions are carried out by you, away from our website, from your own wallet, giving you full control.
Sending Bitcoin involves dealing with long address strings, where even a single incorrect digit can result in a loss of funds. By using emails, you significantly reduce the risk of mistyping these long strings.
Absolutely! It's perfect for both personal and business use. Features like invoicing, transaction history and tracking web payments is all possible. Whether you're an author selling a book or a freelancer getting paid, a BitcoinEmailAddress opens up the possilbities for those wanting to avoid excessive fees and do direct wallet-to-wallet transactions.
No, there are ZERO fees to use a BitcoinEmailAddress. Your wallet or exchange may still charge a standard transaction fee.
Bitcoin is a revolution, a way to take back control that has been lost. However, its complexity can be overwhelming. Our mission is to break down those barriers and make Bitcoin accessible to everyone. We're not here to be middlemen; we're here to eliminate them. By making Bitcoin simple and cutting out the leeches, we return the power to where it rightfully belongs: with you.
Hopefully this makes Bitcoin easier to use for everyone, though it still stands... "If you don't believe it or don't get it, I don't have the time to try to convince you, sorry." — Satoshi Nakamoto
