You can use your Web3 domain as a crypto payment address in MetaMask, so people can send funds to a readable domain name instead of copying a long wallet address.
Once set up, anyone who has MetaMask and the Freename Web3 Resolver (Snap) enabled can send crypto directly to your domain.
After confirmation, wait up to a few hours for the change to become active.
After setup, users with MetaMask + the Freename Resolver enabled can send funds to your domain name.
Important:
Example:
Before using your domain for payments, confirm that:
Do I need MetaMask to receive payments to my domain?
You need MetaMask to complete the setup (“Sign Transaction”). After that, you can receive funds at the linked wallet address as usual.
Do senders need MetaMask too?
Yes. Senders must have MetaMask installed and the Freename Web3 Resolver (Snap) enabled to send to a Web3 domain name.
How long does it take before it works?
Typically a few hours after you sign and confirm the transaction.
Does Freename automatically bridge funds between chains?
No. There is no automatic bridge. Funds arrive on the chain used by the sender, at the same wallet address.
I get this MetaMask error: “No address resolution found for this name.” What can I do?
Make sure you:
If the issue still happens after a few hours, try using a different device or a different browser.
If it persists, contact us at support@freename.com.
What if I don’t control the destination wallet?
Do not proceed. Always make sure the destination wallet address is yours and you have full access to it, otherwise you may lose access to incoming funds.
