How do crypto payments work?

Now, you might be wondering, how do crypto payments work? Let's break it down. Imagine your customer wants to pay you with Bitcoin, a stablecoin (like USDC) or any other cryptocurrency. Both parties have agreed on the terms, and the only thing missing is the first payment. 

1. Log-in to Januar.com
   • Simply open Januar.com and log-in to your account (which looks like the online banking of your traditional bank account). 
2. Copy the address
   • On the website click the cryptocurrency the client wants to send you. Click “receive” and copy the number. This number is called “public key” or “wallet address”. 
3. Send the public key
   • Add this “public key” to the invoice which you send to your client. Once your client has sent the money you’ll get a notification. 
4. Manage Your Funds
   • Easily manage and convert your crypto funds through our platform. You can easily exchange your crypto into FIAT (like EUR, DKK or USD) or visa versa.
