Understanding On-Chain vs Off-Chain Transactions

Squared tracks and confirms transactions using public on-chain records. However, if both you and your customer use wallets from the same centralized service (like Binance or Coinbase), the transaction may happen off-chain. This means:
  • The funds are simply reallocated within the service’s internal records
  • No transaction is recorded on the blockchain
  • Squared cannot verify or confirm the payment
Our recommendation: We strongly recommend using self-custodial wallets (like Trust Wallet, MetaMask, or Ledger) to ensure all transactions are properly recorded on-chain and can be verified by our system. Squared Inc. cannot be held accountable for loss of funds due to off-chain transactions because of merchant’s use of centralized wallet service
💡 Tip: We use Trust Wallet internally because it’s easy to setup, supports many cryptocurrencies, and maintains proper on-chain records.

​
How Wallet Assignment Works

When an invoice is created:
  1. For USD-denominated invoices: We check which wallets you have configured. Customers will only see payment options for cryptocurrencies where you have corresponding wallets set up.
  2. For crypto-denominated invoices: We automatically assign the respective wallet for that cryptocurrency. If you don’t have a wallet set up for that specific network or it’s in standby mode, the API will return an error.

​
Managing Primary and Standby Wallets

You can configure multiple wallets for each cryptocurrency network, but only one can be active at a time.

​
Wallet Statuses

  • Primary: The active wallet that will receive payments for new invoices
  • Standby: Reserve wallets that are stored but not currently receiving payments

​
Changing Wallet Status

To switch to a new primary wallet:
  1. Click on your current primary wallet
  2. Select “Move to standby”
  3. Add your new wallet, which will automatically become the primary
To promote a standby wallet:
  1. Click on the standby wallet
  2. Select “Promote to primary”
  3. The previously primary wallet will automatically move to standby
⚠️ Important: Changes to wallet configuration only affect new invoices. Existing invoices will continue using the wallet that was assigned when they were created.
