Send funds
Sending works the same way for every currency in Cake Wallet: pick a destination, set an amount, check the fee, confirm. Two minutes, start to finish.
Enter the destination
Four ways, in order of safety and convenience:
Scan the recipient's QR code.
Pick from your contacts — tap the contacts icon; the
Walletstab also lets you send between your own wallets.Paste a copied address.
Type an alias — the address field resolves human-readable names (ENS, OpenAlias, and more; see Address lookup services).
Always compare the first and last few characters of the pasted address against the original. Clipboard-hijacking malware that swaps addresses is real — seconds of checking beats an unrecoverable mistake.
Set the amount
Enter an amount in crypto or in your fiat currency — Cake Wallet converts as you type. Tap Max to send everything (the network fee is deducted from the total). Need to pay several people at once? The + button at the top right of the send screen lets you easily build one transaction with multiple different destinations.
Check the fee
Tap the fee row to choose a priority. Faster confirmation costs more:
Bitcoin-family: priorities show a time estimate and sat/byte rate (Medium is the default), plus a
Customrate for full control.Monero:
Automaticis the default and right for almost everyone; higher priorities pay more to confirm sooner.Ethereum and tokens: the fee is gas paid in the chain's native coin — to send USDT you need a little ETH.
Review and send
The confirmation sheet shows the destination, amount, fee, and network. Check the address one last time, then Swipe to send.
From the success screen you can save the recipient as a contact or add a private note — notes stay on your device, visible only to you.
