Moonshot is a self-custody blockchain wallet app. You can create an account by signing up with an email and passkey (using Touch ID, Face ID, or a passcode).

When you create an account, Moonshot creates an embedded wallet on each supported blockchain for your account using our Multi-Party Computation infrastructure partner, Turnkey.com. Because the wallets are self-custodial, only you can authorize a transaction with your passkey. To learn more about this architecture, please visit https://docs.turnkey.com.

Please note: The Moonshot team cannot assist with recovering funds if you lose access to your account email. Moonshot cannot access your funds and can never freeze, transfer, or recover them on your behalf.


Is Moonshot an exchange?

No. Moonshot is not an exchange and never directly controls the custody of your funds. Our globally regulated partner, MoonPay, Inc., handles the custody of funds during a fiat deposit or withdrawal.


Can I export keys to my wallet?

Yes. Go to Settings > Export Keys > Secret phrase to export your wallets directly.

Please note: The Moonshot team will never ask you for your secret phrase. Never share your secret phrase with anyone; it allows direct access to your funds.
