How do I accept crypto payments with my Ledger wallet?
Updated over a year ago

There are two options to accept crypto payments with Hoodpay, direct-to-address and extended public key. We recommend connecting your xPub key to maximize privacy and payment confirmations as our system will automatically generate a new address per payment.

Once you connect your extended public key to your Hoodpay payments account, we'll automatically process payments directly to your address without touching your funds.

Hoodpay does not require you to reveal, connect, or otherwise provide us with your private keys. Keep your private keys safe.

How do I find my xPub keys on Ledger?

  1. Launch the Ledger application on your laptop/computer and navigate to the account overview.

  2. Tap on the wrench icon then expand the "Advanced Logs" section when the modal appears within the account page.

  3. Copy the long line of text with "xpub" at the start until the end of the quotation marks in the expanded response.

... you're all set!

Note: Hoodpay will automatically convert any other yPub and zPub key formats to xPub.

How do I add my xPub key on Hoodpay?

  1. Navigate to your payments dashboard and access the cryptocurrency settings.

  2. Tap on the crypto asset (such as Bitcoin or Litecoin).

  3. Select the xPub option and tap on the "Legacy" option.

  4. Paste your xPub key into the "extended public key" field.

... and you've successfully connected your xPub key to Hoodpay!
