  2. 2Optionally add an amount, a label and a message.
  3. 3Scan the preview with your wallet to check the address.

Bitcoin Cash QR code format

Format

bitcoincash:<address>?amount=<BCH>&label=<label>&message=<message>

Example

bitcoincash:qexampleexampleexampleexampleexampleexampl?amount=0.1
  • Amounts are in BCH with up to 8 decimals.
  • Legacy addresses starting with 1 or 3 are accepted too, but CashAddr avoids mixing them up with Bitcoin addresses.

CashAddr, legacy and token addresses

Paste the address with or without its bitcoincash: prefix. The generator removes a pasted prefix and writes it once, as the start of the URI.

Token-aware addresses (starting with z or r), used for CashTokens, aren't accepted. Use your wallet's regular q address for BCH payments.

Legacy addresses starting with 1 or 3 look exactly like Bitcoin addresses, which makes it easy to send coins from the wrong network. Prefer CashAddr on anything you print.

Bitcoin Cash QR code FAQ

Is this the same as a Bitcoin code?

No. Bitcoin Cash is a separate coin with its own wallets. For bitcoin, use the Bitcoin generator.
