How to Manage Your Store's Crypto Earnings Safely

Crypto payments are one of the best parts of running a number store, until a mistake happens. Transfers are final. A few habits protect your income.

Withdraw regularly

Payment gateways are for receiving money, not long-term storage. Many owners withdraw on a fixed schedule to a wallet they control.

Protect every account

• Strong, unique passwords in a password manager.
• Two-factor login with an authenticator app or security key.
• Withdrawal address whitelists where your gateway offers them.

Check before you send

1. Copy addresses, never type them.
2. Check the first and last characters.
3. Confirm the network matches on both sides.
4. Send a small test to any new address.

Keep business and personal apart

A separate wallet for the store makes bookkeeping easier and limits damage if something goes wrong.

Plan for your telly.cat balance

Part of your income needs to go back to your telly.cat balance to cover wholesale costs. Move it regularly so sales never stop.

Track and report

Record every withdrawal with date, amount and value. Crypto income can be taxable depending on where you live. Ask a local expert.

Connect your gateway to your telly.cat reseller store and keep your earnings safe.
