How CRYPT.PE works.

There's nothing else quite like this, so we wrote the whole thing down — starting with the questions everyone asks first: where does my money go, which wallet do I need, and is it safe?

what is CRYPT.PE

One link that gets you paid in crypto — without a middleman.

CRYPT.PE gives you a public payment page at crypt.pe/yourname. You put your wallet addresses on it once. Anyone in the world can open it, scan a QR code, and send you crypto — Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, USDT and 20+ more — directly to your wallet, from any country, with no bank account, no sign-up for the payer, and no company sitting between you and your money.

On top of that page you get: exact-amount invoices priced in your local currency, automatic payment detection and receipts, a real-time dashboard, and a developer API. But the core idea stays the same everywhere: we route information, never money.

Who is it for? Freelancers invoicing foreign clients, creators taking tips, online stores adding a crypto option, NGOs accepting donations — anyone who wants to get paid across borders without giving up a percentage or control of their funds.
where's my money?

Your money never touches us. Here's the actual flow.

The single most important thing to understand about CRYPT.PE:

1. payer's wallet sends crypto
2. the blockchain settles it (public, verifiable)
3. your wallet receives it. done.
CRYPT.PE watches step 2 and shows you a receipt — that's all.

There is no "CRYPT.PE balance", no platform wallet, no withdrawal button — because your money is never here. It goes from the payer's wallet to yours in one hop, on-chain. That means:

  • Nothing to freeze. We couldn't hold your payout even if ordered to — we never have it.
  • Nothing to withdraw. Funds are already in your wallet the moment the payment confirms.
  • Nothing lost if we vanish. If CRYPT.PE shut down tomorrow, every coin you ever received stays exactly where it is — in your wallet.
The honest trade-off: blockchain payments are final. There are no chargebacks and no "undo". That protects you as a receiver — but it also means a wrong address can't be reversed, which is why we validate every address format before you can save it.
is it safe?

What we store, what we never ask for, and what could go wrong.

What CRYPT.PE stores: your email, your public wallet addresses (the same ones you'd print on an invoice), and your payment history metadata. That's it.

What we never store or ask for: private keys, seed phrases, exchange logins, or custody of any funds. Your public address lets people send you money — it can never be used to take it.

If anyone ever asks for your seed phrase or private key — including someone claiming to be CRYPT.PE support — it is a scam. Every time. No exceptions.

"What if my CRYPT.PE account gets hacked?" The worst an attacker could do is change the addresses displayed on your page — they can't touch funds you've already received. We still defend the account hard: two-factor authentication (TOTP), email verification, and email alerts on wallet changes. Enable 2FA in settings — it takes a minute.

"How do I know a payment is real?" Every payment we show links to the transaction on a public block explorer (Etherscan, Solscan, Mempool…). You never have to trust our word — you can verify every satoshi independently, forever.

wallets & networks

Any wallet that gives you an address works.

CRYPT.PE never connects to, unlocks, or controls your wallet — we only display an address you paste in. So any wallet works: mobile apps, browser extensions, hardware wallets, even a paper wallet. Popular choices per network:

networkcoinspopular wallets
EVM (Ethereum, Polygon, Arbitrum, Base, Optimism, BNB)ETH, MATIC, BNB, USDT, USDC…MetaMask, Rabby, Trust Wallet
BitcoinBTCMuun, BlueWallet, Sparrow
SolanaSOL, USDC (SPL)Phantom, Solflare
TronTRX, USDT (TRC-20)TronLink, Trust Wallet
TONTON, USDTTonkeeper
XRP · Litecoin · Dogecoin · Cardano · Polkadot · Bitcoin Cash · Aptos · Suinative coinsXaman, Yoroi, official wallets

13 network families, 25+ coins — and for maximum security, hardware wallets (Ledger, Trezor) work perfectly: paste your hardware wallet's receive address and payments go straight to cold storage.

New to wallets? Start with Trust Wallet or MetaMask (free, mobile). Create the wallet, write your seed phrase on paper (never in a screenshot), copy your address, and paste it into CRYPT.PE. Stablecoins like USDT are the easiest first coin — 1 USDT ≈ 1 US dollar.
getting started

Live in under three minutes.

1
Claim your handle
Sign up and pick a username — that becomes your permanent payment URL: crypt.pe/yourname. We'll email you a verification link (verifying unlocks receipts and password recovery).
2
Add a wallet address
In the dashboard's wallets tab, pick a network, paste your address, give it a label. We validate the format instantly so typos can't slip through. Add as many networks as you like.
3
Share your link
That's it — your page is live. Put the link in your bio, invoices, or email signature. Anyone who opens it can scan the QR and pay you directly.
your payment page

Your public page: scan, send, done.

Your page shows your name, bio, photo, and a coin picker. When a visitor selects a coin they see your address and a QR code that opens directly in their wallet app. It works for both open amounts (tips, donations — payer chooses how much) and exact invoices (next section).

  • Make it yours: custom accent colour and light/dark theme in settings.
  • Social proof (optional): show your last few received payments as verified receipt links — off by default, toggle in settings.
  • Products: sell fixed-price items with their own shareable pages.
invoices & links

Charge an exact amount — priced in YOUR currency.

From the dashboard's invoice tab, type an amount in your local currency — dollars, euros, rupees, whatever you set — pick a coin, and get a link + QR. The payer sees the exact crypto amount quoted at the live exchange rate, so "₹5,000" becomes "0.0021 ETH" without you doing any math.

1
Create
amount + coin → invoice link (takes ~5 seconds).
2

share the link with your client on any channel.
3
Watch it confirm
the invoice page detects the payment on-chain and flips to a receipt automatically — you get notified, they get proof.
Visitors also see prices hinted in their own local currency (auto-detected) — a customer in Berlin sees a € reference even if you invoice in $.
getting paid

Payments confirm themselves — usually before you can refresh.

We watch the blockchain for you. Ethereum-family payments typically confirm here in seconds (webhooks); Bitcoin, Solana and Tron within a minute or two. And if a payer just hit send and can't wait, the invoice page has an "already sent? paste your tx hash" box — we fetch that exact transaction on-chain and confirm it near-instantly.

Every confirmed payment produces a permanent receipt page at crypt.pe/r/<tx> with the amount, time, and a link to the transaction on a public block explorer. Send it to clients as proof, keep it for your books — it verifies itself forever.

Get notified your way: email receipts, and (on paid plans) Discord, Telegram, or your own webhook the moment money lands.

the dashboard
