Limits

Sending Bitcoin has a few limits to be aware of. We recommend checking your limits and track your limit progression regularly.

You can view your weekly and monthly limits in-app:

Limits are rolling and they accumulate for any consecutive 7 day period and 30 day period. Limits are tracked down to the minute a payment was made.
