- When you add a wallet address on Oobit, you are invited to save it under a description (i.e. Personal, Business, Jane, etc.). After adding a new address you will need to confirm it through an email sent immediately after entry. The transaction will no be processed until the wallet address has been confirmed. Users also have the option of sending BTC funds to a phone number. Note the recipients will receive the funds even if they don’t have a crypto account.

What To Know About BTC Withdrawals
Here are some commonly asked questions regarding BTC transactions.
- How long will it take?
Typically BTC transactions take anywhere from 10 - 40 minutes depending on how busy the network is at that time.
- What are transaction fees?
Bitcoin transaction fees are paid by the user and sent directly to the miner who verifies your transaction. These are worked out based on how busy the network is at the time (the more busy, the higher the fee) and are automatically calculated by Oobit and added to your amount. You can read more about BTC transaction fees here.
- Are there any hidden costs?
No, what you see is what you get. The only "extra cost" is the transaction fee, which is calculated and displayed before you confirm the withdrawal.
- What are the withdrawal limits?
Depending on your current KYC verification, the amount of BTC that you can withdraw will vary. Verified Level 1 and 2 users have a limit of 0.2 BTC, while users with the Oobit Pass have unlimited daily BTC withdrawals.
