Wallets and customers

Create a wallet

Wallets > Create wallet. Pick the chain and the asset; the pickers only offer chains currently open for new operations, so you cannot create a wallet that would fail. Add your own reference (external_ref, an opaque id, never personal data) and, if you use sub-accounts, attach a customer.

On a Sandbox wallet, creation is followed by an optional pre-fund prompt: accept it and the faucet sends test assets to the new address, which then arrive as a normal deposit.

The wallet list filters by chain, asset and status; the detail view carries the full address and its technical identifiers. Wallets have no off switch by design: a public address can always receive, so CowriePay keeps watching it.

Customers (sub-accounts)

Customers manages the optional sub-accounts that group wallets per end-user; the concept and its rules (opaque external_ref, what archiving does and does not do) are in the customers guide.

From here you create a customer, edit its label, archive it, and jump to its wallets.
