Sending crypto used to be one of the most nerve-racking experiences in finance. You'd copy a 42-character string of random letters and numbers, paste it into a wallet, double-check it three times — and still worry you'd just sent your savings into the void.
A .crypto domain changes that completely. Instead of 0x71C7656EC7ab88b098defB751B7401B5f6d8976F, your friends, customers, and clients can send payments to yourname.crypto. Same wallet, infinitely better experience.
Here's exactly how to set one up — start to finish, in about 10 minutes.
Step-by-Step: Setting Up Crypto Payments
Purchase or claim your .crypto domain
Browse available domains and complete checkout. Your domain is minted as an NFT to your wallet — you fully own it forever, with no renewal fees.
Sign in to your Unstoppable Domains dashboard
Connect the wallet that holds your .crypto domain. You'll see your domain listed with a "Manage" button.
Add your wallet addresses
Under "Crypto Records," paste in your wallet addresses for each currency you want to accept: BTC, ETH, USDC, MATIC, SOL, and 275+ others.
Save changes to the blockchain
Confirm the transaction in your wallet. There's a small gas fee — but most domains include free updates on Polygon, so this is often free.
Start receiving payments
That's it. Anyone using a supported wallet (MetaMask, Trust, Coinbase Wallet, etc.) can now send crypto to yourname.crypto and it'll route to the correct address automatically.
Why This Is a Game-Changer
Here's what most people don't realize: a single .crypto domain replaces every wallet address you've ever had. One human-readable name routes Bitcoin to your BTC wallet, Ethereum to your ETH wallet, USDC to your stablecoin wallet — automatically.
- No more copy-paste errors. "Send to alex.crypto" is a sentence anyone can type.
- Multi-chain by default. One domain, hundreds of currencies.
- Your domain travels with you. Change wallet providers? Just update the records.
- Public, shareable, brandable. Print it on a business card. Add it to your bio.
Use Cases Beyond Personal Payments
Freelancers & Consultants
Invoice clients with yourname.crypto instead of a confusing string. Clients trust readable addresses far more than random hexadecimal.
Content Creators & Streamers
Display your .crypto handle on stream for tips. Viewers can send any supported currency without you having to manage multiple addresses.
Nonprofits & Donations
Domains like donate.crypto or givehope.crypto turn one-time donors into recurring supporters because the donation address is something they can actually remember.
Small Businesses
Add "Pay with crypto: yourstore.crypto" to your checkout page. Lower fees than credit cards, instant settlement, no chargebacks.
Common Questions
Do I have to pay gas fees every time someone sends me crypto?
No. Senders pay their own gas fees, just like with any wallet address. You only pay gas when updating your domain records — and Polygon-based updates are essentially free.
What if I lose access to my wallet?
Your .crypto domain is tied to the wallet that owns it. Always back up your seed phrase securely. If you lose your seed phrase, you lose access to the domain — same as any NFT.
Can I use my .crypto domain on multiple wallets?
The domain itself lives in one wallet (the one that owns the NFT), but the payment addresses it points to can be on dozens of different wallets. So your BTC can be in a hardware wallet, your ETH in MetaMask, your USDC in Coinbase Wallet — all routed by one domain.
