Using Sippy
Recovery email
Add an email to unlock higher limits and protect your account if you lose access.
Why add an email?
Your email does two things:
- Raises your daily limit from $50 to $500. Without a verified email, your daily spending cap stays at $50. Verifying unlocks up to $500.
- Protects your account. If you lose access to your phone number or your WhatsApp, a verified email gives you a way back in.
How to add your email
- Go to sippy.lat/settings
- Find the Email section
- Enter your email address and tap Save
- Check your inbox for a verification link
- Click the link -- done
The whole process takes about 30 seconds.
What happens after verification
- Your daily limit cap increases to $500 (you still choose the exact amount in Settings)
- Your email is linked to your account for recovery purposes
- Nothing else changes -- your wallet address stays the same, your balance stays the same
What if I skip it?
Everything still works. You can send and receive money, check your balance, and use all of Sippy's features. The only differences:
- Your daily limit stays capped at $50
- You have no backup way to recover your account
We recommend adding one. It takes 30 seconds and gives you both peace of mind and a higher limit.
Can I change my email later?
Yes. Go to Settings and update it anytime. You'll need to verify the new address before it takes effect.
What's next?
- Add funds -- get USDC into your wallet
- Understand your limits -- how daily caps work and what counts toward them
