Sending to another Calen user, or requesting money

Written by Calen Support

Paying a friend who already has Calen, or need to ask someone to pay you? You can send money with their @tag, or share a payment link or QR code.

Send with an @tag

  1. Choose Send, then look up the person by their @tag.

  2. Enter the amount and the wallet you want to send from.

  3. Check the name and tag on the screen, then confirm with your PIN if we ask for it.

Only send to people you know. If someone you don't know asks you to receive money and pass it on, that's a warning sign. See How to recognise scams and fraud.

Request money with a link or QR code

  1. Create a payment link or a QR code in the app.

  2. Choose the wallet you want the money to land in, and the amount if you're asking for a set figure.

  3. Share the link, or show the QR code, with the person paying you.

  4. They follow the link or scan the code, then pay you. We'll show you on screen who can pay that way.

Share the link or code only with the person you expect to pay you.

Good to know: You'll see the fees and any limits on your dashboard, and before you confirm each transaction.

Quick tip: Double-check the @tag looks right, the same way you'd check an account number.
