XRP Tipbot

NOTICE#

XRP TipBot is no longer operational. You can withdraw your funds or you can link your account to Uphold and migrate your balance.

Uphold is in the process of obtaining a BitLicense in the state of New York. Until the BitLicense is issued they cannot support cryptocurrency transactions. If you reside in New York, you’ll need to withdraw your funds from the TipBot. You can still set up an Uphold account for fiat money but it won’t be linked to XRP TipBot.

Migrate to Uphold#

Connect your account#

  1. Sign in to your XRP TipBot account.

  2. Click Continue to the next step.

  1. Click Register if you don’t have an Uphold account yet. You’ll be taken to Uphold’s sign up page.

  2. If you do have an Uphold account, click Connect.

  1. Sign in to your account. You’ll be prompted to authorize Uphold to connect to XRP TipBot.

After you authorize Uphold, your browser might take you back to the XRP TipBot screen with the OK, connect to Uphold button. That’s fine. Uphold will send you a confirmation email within a few minutes.

Migrate your balance#

If you have a balance in your TipBot account, you’ll find a notification and button to migrate your balance to your linked Uphold account. Wait until you’ve received the confirmation email before migrating.

Click Migrate then access your Uphold account. Locate the XRP account card on the dashboard. This card contains the balance from your XRP TipBot account.

If you want to continue receiving XRP to this card, you’ll need to generate a new payment pointer, then add the pointer to any of your personal websites that use the monetization meta tag.

If you want to want to convert some or all of your balance to a different currency, or move your XRP to another XRP card (if you already have one), you can do that too. Your Uphold account lets you receive funds on any currency card using Interledger (ILP). You are not limited to receiving only XRP.
