How do I receive bitcoin?

Receive sats on-chain or via the Lightning network using AmberApp

Updated over 8 months ago

To receive bitcoin using AmberApp navigate to the lightning screen and follow these simple steps:

  1. Tap the purple floating action bubble (+)

  2. Select 'receive' from the pop-up menu

  3. Specify an amount to request (if applicable)

  4. Show or share the Lightning invoice QR code to the sender

  5. Have the sender scan or paste and confirm the payment

Alternatively, you can receive bitcoin on-chain by sharing the Bitcoin address visible when you tap the '₿' symbol on the top right of the receive menu. Keep in mind that receiving via an on-chain transaction might take longer to process.
