  • + No personal data leaves the wallet.

Cons

  • − Mistyped addresses aren't recoverable.

ETH and a card payment both land Stars in minutes — the difference is ETH needs a wallet, a card needs a bank that allows the charge.

Double-check the Optimism address before sending — ETH sent on the wrong network can't be recovered automatically.

What if the Optimism transaction is slow?+

Stars post automatically once the transaction gets its confirmation — no need to contact support.

What network should I send ETH on?+

Only send ETH on Optimism to the address shown; other networks aren't monitored for this payment.
