Wallets
Wallets are blockchain addresses that enable customers to send and receive USDC directly on supported blockchain networks. Unlike the wallets you get when you create an account, these wallets operate independently and are not linked to an account.
Wallets workflow
To use wallets with Gravv:
- Create a customer to obtain a customer id.
- Create a wallet for the customer on your chosen blockchain network.
When to use wallets
Use wallets when you need:
- direct blockchain interactions without managing full user accounts
- multiple blockchain addresses under one customer
- flexibility to create wallets for specific blockchains on demand
Wallets vs accounts
While both wallets and accounts enable cryptocurrency transactions, they serve different purposes:
| Wallets | Accounts |
|---|---|
| standalone blockchain addresses | full-featured financial accounts |
| can send and receive funds directly | always backed by a wallet |
| don't include virtual account details | include virtual account details for wire transfers and ACH |
| don't support additional features | support additional features like cards and savings |
| wallets can exist without accounts | accounts can't exist without wallets |

- Polygon
