Litecoin at a glance
02How it works
From wallet to delivered messages in four steps.
-
01Open an account
An email address and a password. No identity document and no card: there is nothing to verify before you can deposit.
-
02Choose Litecoin
In the panel, open Add credit and pick Litecoin. The screen shows the amount to send and your deposit address.
-
03Send from any wallet
Pay from a personal wallet or an exchange withdrawal, on the network shown. The deposit appears as pending when the network sees it.
-
04Credited in US dollars
After confirmation the amount is converted once and added to your balance. Send from the panel or the API at the published rates.
03Choosing
Why senders like Litecoin
Litecoin works like Bitcoin with faster blocks and much lower fees. For an account that tops up modest amounts every week or two, that combination matters more than anything else: the fee does not eat the deposit, and the credit lands while you are still writing the campaign. It is widely available on exchanges and supported by most wallets.
Whatever the coin, the mechanics are the same: the deposit shows as pending when the network sees it, is credited after confirmation, is converted once to US dollars at the market rate displayed at that moment, and then buys messages at the published rate card. The balance never expires and unused balance is refundable in the coin it came from under the refund policy.
04Checklist
Before you send
Send on the Litecoin network to the address shown on the deposit screen. Copy the address from the panel each time rather than from memory or an old note. If the deposit is still pending after the network has clearly confirmed it, check the status page, then write to support with the transaction id.
05What a top-up buys
Messages per deposit, at today's rates.
The balance is in US dollars, so the arithmetic is the same whatever coin you paid with: amount divided by the destination's published rate, one segment per message.
