How it works
Set it once. Forget it.
A Glitter Tag is a small record, signed by your wallet, that says which address and which destination tag or memo to use for each chain. Here's the whole journey.
For you, the owner
Search a name
Look up @yourname. If it's free, start the 7-day trial.
Connect a wallet
Xaman can't sign messages yet, so use GemWallet, MetaMask or Freighter. This wallet "owns" the name.
Add addresses
Paste your XRP, Stellar and 0x addresses, each with its tag or memo. Name them, like "Tommy's Coinbase".
Sign and share
Your wallet signs a plain-English summary. That's free and isn't a payment. Then share your name or card.
For the person paying you
They type @yourname
In a wallet or exchange that supports Glitter Tags, or they open your card link and scan the QR code.
Their wallet checks it
The wallet asks our registry for your record and checks your signature on their own device. A fake or changed record is refused.
Address and tag fill in
The right address for the coin being sent, plus the tag or memo. They see your display name and wallet name before they confirm.
What's inside a Glitter Tag
A signed note, not a wallet
Every Glitter Tag is a small "bundle" of facts. Your wallet signs it, so nobody else, including us, can change it. Here's what your wallet is asked to sign:
Glitter Gold Tag bundle v1
network: mainnet
handle: tommy-xrp
sequence: 3
xrpl: rN7n7otQDd6FczFgLdSqtcsAUxDkw6fzRH tag 198425
stellar: GCEZWKCA5VLDNRLN3RPRJMRZOX3Z6G5CHCGSNFHEYVXM3XOJMDS674JZ
digest: 9f2c…The real addresses are right there in the text, so you can see exactly what you're approving.
Safety built in
Mistakes caught early
Tag required? We check.
We look at the ledger. If your address demands a destination tag or memo and you left it out, we stop you.
24-hour cooling-off
Changes to where money goes wait 24 hours, and the card shows a warning meanwhile. You can cancel a change you didn't make.
No look-alikes
@t0mmy can't sit next to @tommy. Names that look the same belong to one person.
Older versions refused
Each change gets a higher number, and wallets refuse an older record served later.
Name formats
| You type | What it means |
|---|---|
@tommymidnight | Your main name. Answers for every chain you've added. |
@tommy-xrp | An extra name for one wallet. Only the owner of @tommy can create labels. |
tommy-coinbase | Same as @tommy-coinbase. The @ is optional. |
tommy.xrp | Not available. Glitter Tags never have dots. |
