Spend your crypto in Cape Verde

Yes. You can use your crypto to buy digital gift cards inside the app and share the code with a relative on the islands, which is a practical way to pass value for everyday brands and essentials. It works even when the person does not use crypto, since they only need the gift card itself. The available brands and amounts are shown in the app, so check the current selection before you send.

Because your wallet is self-custodial, you can send supported assets directly to another person's wallet address, whether they are on the islands or part of the wider diaspora. Many people keep part of their balance in a dollar-pegged stablecoin so the value stays steady as it moves between family members. If the recipient does not hold crypto, buying them a digital gift card is a simple alternative.

There is no need to start large. You can fund your self-custodial wallet with a small amount, then use it to top up a phone, buy a gift card, or hold a stablecoin while you learn how things work. Network costs apply when you move assets between wallets, so very small transfers can be less practical, but for top-ups and gift cards you can begin modestly.

Bitcoin, stablecoins like USDC and USDT, and 100+ assets held in the Zypto wallet. If you need a different asset, you can swap in-app first.

Yes. You hold your own keys and Zypto never takes custody of your funds. That also means you are responsible for your recovery phrase: if you lose it, Zypto cannot restore access to your wallet.
