Receive crypto in Phantom

  • Updated

Deposit crypto to Phantom from an exchange, another wallet, or another Phantom user. The sender needs your wallet address or Phantom username, and must send the crypto on a network that Phantom supports.

Each supported network has one receive address. For example, your Solana address receives SOL, USDC, USDT, and other Solana tokens.

You can also receive USDC, USDT, or PYUSD on Solana directly in your Cash account. They’re automatically converted into CASH when they arrive.

Find your wallet address

Get your wallet address or QR code, then share it with the person or exchange sending you crypto. See Find your wallet address in Phantom for more details.

Mobile app

  1. Tap the + button in the lower right, then tap Receive.
  2. The Tokens tab opens by default, with your Solana address. Scan the QR code with another app or copy the address.
  3. To view the address on another network, tap the chevron below the QR code, then choose a different network.
  4. To find your Cash account address, tap the Cash tab to the right of the Tokens tab, then scan the QR code with another app or copy the address. Alternatively, go to the Cash section on Home, then under Add Cash, tap Receive Cash.

Note: If what you're seeing in your Phantom mobile app looks different from what's described here, you may be on a previous version. An update is rolling out gradually.

Browser extension

  1. On the Home tab, click Receive.
  2. Click the QR code icon to display a scannable code, or click the copy icon to copy the address.

Receive stablecoins into your Cash account

Common issues

Sent the wrong token to my Cash address

If you sent a Solana token other than USDC, USDT, or PYUSD to your Cash address, the funds won't appear in your Cash balance, but they're safe. To recover them, take these steps:

  1. In the Phantom mobile app, go to Settings → tap your profile at the top → Recover Cash Assets.
  2. Next to the token, tap Withdraw.

The funds go back into your main Phantom account. You need a Cash balance of at least $1 for this option to appear.
