Learn how to send and receive MINAFirst, ensure you have installed a Mina wallet.
To receive MINA, you must provide the unique address for your Mina account to the sender.
Here’s how to find your address within common wallets:
- Auro - Open the wallet, tap “Receive”, and tap “Copy” to share your address or QR code representing this address.
- Clorio Wallet - Open the wallet and tap
at the top to copy your address. - Ledger Hardware Wallet - Follow the instructions on creating a Ledger Mina account via Auro Wallet, then see the instructions for receiving MINA on Auro wallet above.
- Pallad - Open the wallet, tap "Receive", and tap "Copy to clipboard" to share your address. Wallet's QR code is displayed as well.
:::note
To prevent spam, the Mina network charges a one-time account creation fee of 1 MINA. This fee is automatically deducted from the first transaction received.
:::
When sending MINA, always double check that you have the correct Mina address for the recipient. Remember that transactions on the Mina blockchain are final and irreversible.
- Auro - Open the wallet, tap “Send”, enter in the address, amount, and fee, and tap “Next” then “Confirm”.
- Clorio Wallet - Open the wallet, tap “Send TX”, and enter in the address, memo, amount, and fee, tap “Preview”, and enter in the nonce then tap “Confirm”.
- Ledger Hardware Wallet - Follow the instructions on creating a Ledger Mina account via Auro Wallet, then see the instructions for sending MINA on Auro wallet above.
- Pallad - Open the wallet, tap "Send". Enter address and amount, and tap "Next". Enter your spending password and submit to confirm the transaction.

When sending transactions on a blockchain, such as Mina, senders must include a transaction fee. Most wallets calculate a recommended fee. You can also view a suggested fee amount based on current network transaction volume at this community-created Gas Station website.
