- View all of your wallet addresses and balances on one screen in the Receive view.
- New flow for buying and selling bitcoin via Glidera.io
- New flow to buy Amazon Gift Cards

Send all available funds
Need to send all of your funds to another wallet address you control? The send-all feature scrapes all spendable inputs into a transaction which you can review and approve.
Request a specific bitcoin amount
If you need to receive a specific bitcoin amount, there’s a new option on the Receive tab to generate a QR code with a pre-set amount. Create a QR code and let others simply scan to pay.
View all wallet addresses from the Receive tab.
Audit transactions and balances held at each of your past BitPay wallet bitcoin addresses. You’ll find a full listing of all the addresses in each wallet, the addresses with balances, and functionality to generate multiple new addresses at the same time.
New buying flow for Amazon.com gift cards
Just in time for your last-minute Christmas gifts, we’ve added a newly-designed flow for buying Amazon.com gift cards directly from your bitcoin wallet. Buying an Amazon.com gift card with bitcoin has never been easier. And since we’ve increased the daily buy limit from $500 to $1000, you can now trade your bitcoin for even more Amazon.com gift card value.
New bitcoin buying and selling flow
We’ve added a newly designed flow for buying or selling bitcoin to and from your wallet addresses via our partner exchange Glidera. Did we mention Glidera is now available in all 50 US states and all 10 Canadian provinces?
Calculate selected fee level when sweeping a paper wallet
Sweeping a paper wallet to an online one? You’ll still have to pay the bitcoin mining fee for the transaction. With this new feature, you can calculate the selected fee level before you sweep.
We hope you enjoy this new release of the BitPay app. Let us know what you think! You can leave feedback directly in the app. Your participation is already making BitPay a better app for storing and spending bitcoin securely.
