Binance Pay may be the most underrated feature on Binance. Many people deposit, trade, and withdraw on Binance but keep using on-chain transfers to send crypto to friends -- paying fees every time, waiting for confirmations, worrying about wrong addresses. If the other party also uses Binance, Binance Pay transfers are completely free and instant. Register a Binance account if you haven't, then get the Binance APP to operate.

Supported features include: user-to-user transfers (via Pay ID, phone, or email), QR code payments, merchant payments, red packets, and group split bills.

FAQ
Q: What are the transfer limits? Depends on KYC level. Check APP for specifics. Q: Can I transfer to someone who hasn't set up Pay? They need a Binance account. The system will guide them to set up Pay upon receiving. Q: Sent to the wrong person? Cannot auto-reverse. Contact the recipient or Binance support. Q: Does Binance Pay support fiat? No, crypto only. Convert fiat to USDT via P2P first.
