So you just bought Bitcoin at a National Bitcoin ATM and got a receipt with two QR codes on it that looks like this:

This receipt is called a paper wallet which is storing the Bitcoin you bought. DO NOT THROW THIS RECEIPT AWAY. If this receipt gets lost before you import the Bitcoin into a digital wallet you will risk losing your Bitcoin forever. You will need to move them to a digital wallet before you can send them anywhere :) 


Below are the steps you will need to follow to do this! Alternatively, If you prefer a video on how to do this, click here.


1.) Open up your digital wallet on your mobile device and go to the add 'addresses' section of the options menu in your digital wallet app and click on either the '+' button. This will then pull up your mobile devices' camera.    


2.) Now cover the top QR code on your receipt you will want to scan only the BOTTOM QR code on your receipt. This bottom QR code is called  a 'Private Key'. The 'Private Key' is like the password or bank account number that claims ownership of the Bitcoin - Don't share this code! Be aware of anyone asking for this code as well as these tend to be scams where you can lose your bitcoin.

 


3.) FINISHED: Once you have scanned the Bottom QR code from the receipt, your digital wallet app will pop back up again. At this point, the Bitcoin has now moved from the receipt and into your digital wallet! If you go back to the digital wallet app home page you will now see your Bitcoin balance.
