paying with bitcoin
new to bitcoin? it’s a handful of taps, but none of them are hard. here’s every screen you’ll see, paying with cash app — the easiest place to start. any wallet (coinbase, strike, etc.) works the same way.
the screens below are illustrations of what to look for — your real cash app may differ slightly.

warning:
potential scam
look for warning signs that help you spot and avoid bitcoin scams.
• if someone you just met asks for bitcoin, it's likely a scam.
• scammers use urgency to rush you.
cash app shows a red “potential scam” warning for every bitcoin send to an outside wallet. it’s not about batchpure and nothing is wrong. check the acknowledge box and tap send anyway.

your invoice
all bitcoin transfers are final.
check the address and amount one last time, then tap confirm and send. that’s it. your order confirms on its own once the network clears it, and you’ll get a confirmation email.
the amount and address are always on your checkout page right after you place an order. send the exact amount shown — your order confirms automatically once it clears.
