Blitz Accounts: wallets for you and family

Create separate wallets for different needs. Keep your spending organized or give a child or family member their own wallet while you keep control of recovery.

Two types

Personal and managed

Both run from your main wallet backup. Lose your phone? Your 12-word backup brings everything back.

Personal accounts for you

Create “Spending,” “Savings,” or “Business” accounts to keep your money organized. Give each one its own name, emoji, Lightning address, and USD or BTC receiving preference, then manage its balance and history separately.

Managed accounts for others

Give a child or family member their own wallet while you keep recovery in your hands. Pair the account to their phone so they can use it, while you add or withdraw funds, see activity, and recover it from your main backup.

Recovery and boundaries

One backup, clear ownership

Accounts help you stay organized, but you still need to keep your main backup safe.

Restore everything together

Install Blitz on a new device and restore with your main 12-word backup. Your personal and managed accounts come back with it.

Know who is responsible

Personal accounts hold your own money. Managed accounts are for someone you help. You stay responsible for recovery and funding.

Use separate addresses

Give each account its own Lightning address. Payments and history stay separate, and you can set each one to receive in USD or BTC.

FAQ

Questions about Blitz Accounts

Do sub-wallets need separate backups?

No. They run from your main wallet and come back with the same 12-word backup. Keep that backup safe.

Does each account have its own Lightning address?

Sort of. Every personal sub-account can have its own Lightning address and choose to receive in USD or BTC. Managed accounts also get their own Lightning address, based on the username the child sets.

Can a managed account holder recover the account alone?

No. Managed accounts stay under your control. Pairing lets the other person use the account on their phone while you keep recovery.

What happens if I lose my phone?

Install Blitz on a new device and restore with your main 12-word backup. Your accounts come back with it.
