How to create a BSC account​

1) In the My Wallet tab, tap the Add account (+) button next to the search bar.

2) Enter bsc in the search bar and select Binance Smart Chain (BNB).

3) Follow the on-screen steps to add the account. Your BSC account then appears in the My Wallet tab.

For full account-creation steps, see the link below.

Receive BNB​

1) Tap your BSC account to expand it, then tap Receive.

2) Your QR code and BSC address are shown. Tap the copy button next to the address to copy it.

For more details on receiving coins, see the link below.

Send BNB​

Sending BNB follows the same flow as sending any other coin. See the general send guide below.

Set the fee for BSC​

1) Once you enter the amount to send, the BSC fee is calculated automatically based on the current average fee on the network, and shown under Network Fee.

2) Tap Network Fee to pick a preset (Slow, Normal, or Fast), or fine-tune it manually with Advanced.

warning

If the fee is set too low, the transaction may never be confirmed by the network.

Advanced Fee Setting​

The BSC fee has two parts: the Gas Fee (price per unit of gas) and the Gas Limit (maximum gas the transaction may consume). Turn on Advanced to enter both values, as well as the Nonce, manually under Custom.

Gas Fee is denominated in Gwei, a sub-unit of BNB:

1 BNB = 1,000,000,000 gwei

The actual fee paid is Gas used × Gas Fee.

The Gas Limit caps how much gas the transaction can use. A higher Gas Fee generally means faster confirmation.
