Fund Lightning Wallet

How to add funds to your Lightning Wallet

Written by Matty

⚡ Top Up Your Lightning Wallet

Your Lightning Wallet is separate from your regular Bitcoin wallet. To send Lightning payments (such as paying invoices), you'll need to make sure your Lightning balance is funded.


₿ From a BTC Wallet

  1. Go to the Explore tab

  2. Tap Lightning Wallet

  3. Tap Top Up with BTC

From there, choose how you'd like to fund your Lightning wallet:

  • From your Rhino BTC wallet: Tap Top Up from Rhino BTC Wallet and enter the amount you'd like to move from the Bitcoin in your Rhino BTC wallet. This is the fastest way to top up.

  • From an external BTC wallet: Copy or scan the Bitcoin address shown and send BTC from your other wallet. Your Lightning balance will be credited once the transaction is confirmed on-chain.


🧾 From Another Lightning Wallet

Create an invoice to receive a Lightning payment from another Lightning user.

  1. Go to the Explore tab

  2. Tap Lightning Wallet

  3. Select Create Invoice

  4. Tap Generate QR

  5. Share the QR code or invoice string with the sender

Once paid, your Lightning balance will update immediately.
