How to Send Crypto with ELLIPAL X Card

The ELLIPAL App prepares the transaction and broadcasts it — signing happens on your X Card via NFC, with no internet connection involved at any point.

1. Open the ELLIPAL App and tap Send

2. Select the token you want to send

3. Enter the recipient address and amount, then tap Submit

4. Review the transaction details, then tap I Understand

5. Enter your Card-PIN, then tap Submit

6. Hold your X Card to the phone's NFC area to sign the transaction — keep the card still until signing is complete

7. Tap Complete — the transaction is broadcast to the blockchain

Verify the recipient address and amount before tapping I Understand. Transactions are irreversible once broadcast to the blockchain. If anything looks wrong, go back and correct it before proceeding.

What Can Go Wrong

Why is my transaction pending for a long time?

A pending transaction usually means network congestion or a low fee. Check the transaction status in the app or paste the transaction ID into a blockchain explorer for that network. If the fee was too low, you may need to wait — most networks process low-fee transactions eventually, though it can take hours. To avoid this, select a standard or higher fee setting when the network is busy.

Why is my transaction failing?

The most common causes are an incorrect network selection, insufficient balance to cover the network fee, or a missing Memo or Tag when sending to an exchange that requires one. Check each of these before retrying. To prevent failures, double-check the network and available balance before tapping Submit.

What should I do if I sent to the wrong address?

Blockchain transactions cannot be reversed. If you sent to the wrong address, contact the owner of that address directly if you know them. If the address belongs to an exchange, contact their support team immediately — recovery is not guaranteed but some exchanges can assist. To avoid this, always verify the full recipient address before tapping I Understand.

Why won't the X Card sign the transaction via NFC?

Make sure NFC is enabled in your phone's settings. Hold the X Card flat and still against the back of your phone — move it slowly in small steps if it does not detect immediately. Also confirm your Card-PIN was entered correctly before holding the card to the phone.

FAQ

How do I sign a transaction with ELLIPAL X Card?

After reviewing the transaction details and tapping I Understand, enter your Card-PIN and hold your X Card to your phone's NFC area. The card signs the transaction offline and the app broadcasts it automatically once signing is complete.

Do I need to enter a Memo or Tag when sending crypto with ELLIPAL X Card?

Only when sending to an exchange or custodial platform that requires one. When sending to another personal wallet, no Memo or Tag is needed. If you are unsure, check the deposit instructions on the receiving platform before sending.

What is a Memo or Tag?

A Memo or destination Tag is an identifier used by some exchanges and custodial platforms to assign an incoming deposit to a specific user account. If the receiving platform requires one and you omit it, your funds may not be credited automatically — contact that platform's support team if this happens.

How do I send Bitcoin with ELLIPAL X Card?

Select BTC in the ELLIPAL App, tap Send, and follow the same steps as any other coin. Make sure the recipient address format matches the address type you have selected (Native SegWit, Nested SegWit, Legacy, or Taproot). Send a small test transaction first if you are sending to a new address.
