Wallets and paying

What you need

• A wallet that works on Base, such as Coinbase Wallet or MetaMask, in the browser or on your phone through WalletConnect.
• USDC on Base for the price: $30 for a free cell.
• A little ETH on Base for the network fee, well under a cent.

There is nothing to sign up for. The wallet you pay from is your account.

Buying

1. Press Claim or Buy out on a cell. The price on the button is the price you pay.
2. Confirm that the cell and what it earns belong to the wallet you pay from (once).
3. Your wallet asks you to approve the USDC, then to send the purchase; wallets that support permits do it in one step.
4. If someone else bought the cell a moment before you, nothing is charged: the cell shows its new price and waits for a second press.

Getting paid

Every payment goes straight to your wallet in the transaction of the sale: your share when you are bought out, and each royalty as later sales happen. Your account lists every payment and where it came from. If a payment to your address fails, the contract keeps it for you, and your account offers to withdraw it.

Your wallet is your account

The wallet's keys are yours alone, which is what makes the cell yours outright. Keep the recovery phrase private and backed up; Canvas64 never asks for it. The full picture is in Before you buy.
