Self-Custodial Wallets

A self-custody wallet gives you full control over your funds, meaning only you hold the private key to access and manage your assets. With BraidPay’s self-custodial wallets, your funds are secure, as no third party has control over them.

Exporting Your Private Key

Your private key is essential for accessing your wallet. Exporting it allows you to back it up securely, enabling you to restore access to your funds if needed. Keep your private key safe—anyone with access to it can control your funds.

How to Export Your Private Key

  1. Navigate to Wallet Settings:

    • Go to Settings and select Wallets to access your wallet management options.

  2. Initiate Export Process:

    • Click on Export Private Key, which will prompt you to unlock your wallet for security.

  3. Unlock Your Wallet:

    • Enter your wallet PIN to confirm your identity.

  4. Export and Copy the Private Key:

    • After unlocking, click Export Wallet Private Key to reveal your private key.

    • Copy your private key and store it securely. Avoid sharing it or storing it in easily accessible locations.
