Signing up
How to sign up for Nomapay with your phone number, a code by SMS or WhatsApp, your name and your face or fingerprint. It takes under a minute.
Signing up takes under a minute. You need a phone number that can get a text, and a phone with a face or fingerprint lock. There is no password to invent and no seed phrase to write down.
Step by step
- Open the app. Three short screens explain the idea: your money is in dollars, you can send to any phone number, and only you can move it.
- Enter your phone number. The country picker starts on your country, and any country works.
- Type the 6-digit code we send by SMS or WhatsApp.
- Enter your name. Use the name on your ID: you will need it to match if you later cash out.
- Approve once with your face or fingerprint. This creates your key, inside your phone's secure chip.
- Done. Your home screen shows a $0.00 balance, ready to get paid.
About the code
- It works for 10 minutes, and you have 5 tries.
- We never store the code itself, only a scrambled version of it.
- Never share it. Nobody from Nomapay will ever ask you for it.
What happens next
You can hold, send and receive straight away. Your number is linked to your account after a one-time safety check, and from then on money sent to your number goes straight to you.
You only share more about yourself when you need more, for example to cash out. See limits and identity levels.
No smartphone? Nomapay is designed to work on basic phones too, by dialling a short code. See using Nomapay on a basic phone.
