External Wallet to External Address (Send)

This Move Money path covers sending crypto that’s still sitting in an external wallet — like MetaMask — straight out to another external wallet address, without first bringing it into your Shiga wallet.
This is a different guide from Shiga Wallet to Shiga Wallet (Swap), Shiga Wallet to External Address (Withdrawal), My Shiga Wallet to Bank Account (Offramp), and External Wallet to My Shiga Wallet (Swap). Here, both ends of the transaction are external to Shiga — crypto moves from an external wallet you connect straight to any external wallet address you specify, without touching your Shiga wallet balance.

1. Open your home screen and tap Move Money

Enta home screen Every Move Money flow starts here, on your Enta home screen — tap Move Money to begin.

2. Choose External wallet as the source

Tapping Move Money opens a panel titled “Move money”“Send, receive, or swap assets”. Tap Change on the From field to pick where the money’s coming from: Shiga wallet (“Choose from BTC, USDT”), External wallet (“Connect MetaMask or other wallets”), or Bank account (“Transfer from NGN, EUR, or GBP”). Pick External wallet. Move Money — choose From

3. Choose External address as the destination

With External wallet set as From, tap Change on the To field to see: Shiga wallet (“Receive as BTC, USDT”), External address (“Send to any wallet address”), or Bank account (“Cash out to NGN, EUR, or GBP”). Pick External address. Move Money — choose To Once both fields are set, the panel updates to show your full selection, and the Get started button becomes active. Move Money — From and To both set

4. Enter the recipient’s wallet address

Tapping Get started opens a Send crypto screen — “Route transaction between external wallets” — with a three-step tracker down the left: Recipient, Amount, Review. On the Recipient step, type or Paste a Wallet address, then set the Asset and Network it’s on. Below that, an or divider offers Recent or Beneficiary tabs to pick a saved recipient instead — if you’ve never sent anywhere before, this shows “No transactions yet” (“Complete a transaction and we’ll show your most recent ones here”). Recipient — empty Once a full address is entered, Enta auto-fills the Asset and Network if you’ve sent to that address before (here, USDC on Base), and shows a caution: “This is a new recipient. Double-check the details to ensure it’s the right address.” Tap Continue. Recipient — filled
Two validation errors can show up on this step. Entering an address that’s too short shows “Wallet address is too short. Enter the full address to continue” under the field. Entering an address in the wrong format for the selected network — for example, an EVM address with Bitcoin selected — shows “This address doesn’t match the selected asset/network. Check the address or switch the asset/network.” Both keep you on the same screen to fix the address or change the Asset/Network before continuing.

5. Connect your external wallet

Continuing lands you on the Amount step, shown as a swap-style screen with a Send card and a Receive card. The Receive side is already set to your recipient and asset (e.g. “USDC on Base”), but the Send side needs a wallet connected — it shows a Connect External Wallet button instead of an asset picker, and Continue stays disabled until a wallet is linked. Connect an external wallet

6. Pick the asset to send and enter an amount

Once connected, the Send card shows the wallet’s asset (e.g. USDT on Arbitrum) with a live rate against the receiving asset (e.g. “1 USDT ≈ 1.005 USDC”), plus a From: row naming the connected wallet (e.g. Metamask) and its truncated address, and a To: row with the recipient’s truncated address. Type an Amount in the Send card — the Receive card calculates automatically, for example turning an entered amount into roughly a 0.4% smaller amount on the receiving side after conversion. Tap Continue. Choose an asset and enter an amount

7. Review before you confirm

The Review screen shows your send as a single summary — for example, 10USDT(Base)10 USDT (Base) → 9.96 USDC (Base) — along with Type: Send, Estimated time: ~30s, From (your connected wallet, address truncated), and To (the recipient’s address, truncated). Tap Back to change anything, or Confirm Send to continue. Review your send

8. Authorize the transaction

As with the rest of Move Money, authorization is done with your device’s passkey — Face ID, Touch ID, or your device’s biometric/PIN unlock. There’s no code to type in; the native prompt appears on top of the review screen, and confirming it submits the send.
The authorization screen for this specific flow hasn’t been designed in Figma yet (it’s currently just a placeholder link), so there’s nothing screen-specific to show here beyond the passkey behavior shared across Move Money.

9. Processing and confirmation

Once you authorize, a loading screen reads “Processing your transaction…” with your send summary still visible underneath — the token conversion, and the From/To wallet details. Processing your send When it’s done, you’ll land on a confirmation screen reading “Your send is complete”, showing the same summary, plus Make another transaction or Go to Dashboard to finish up. Send confirmation
