Payout wallet
Configure the merchant wallet that receives direct USDC transfers.
Who this is for
Merchant owners and administrators configuring or changing the wallet that receives customer payments.
Before you begin
- Owner or administrator permission on the store.
- Access to sign a message with the Base EVM wallet you want to use, either through a browser wallet extension or by pasting a manually produced signature.
Outpay's v0.1 flow is non-custodial: funds move directly from the customer's wallet to the merchant's registered payout wallet. There is no platform balance and no automated payout step.
Configure the wallet
Base USDC only
The token contract seeded by the application is 0x833589fCD6EDb6E08f4c7C32D4f71b54bdA02913. Do not advertise another currency or network as accepted by this release.
Expected result
The wallet status changes to active once the ownership signature is verified. New checkouts display this wallet as the payment recipient immediately; existing open checkouts keep the wallet address they were created with.
Common problems
| Problem | Likely cause | Next step |
|---|---|---|
| Signature verification fails | The signature was produced with a different wallet, or signed outside the allowed time window. | Re-issue the challenge and sign it promptly with the exact wallet address entered. |
| Customers report sending to an old address | A wallet change does not retroactively update checkouts created before the change. | Confirm which wallet a specific checkout displays before assuming a customer error. |
