Introducing Metal X Virtual Gift Card Feature

A New Era of Crypto Gifting

In the digital age, gifting has taken a revolutionary leap forward. Metal X the DeFi super app by Metallicus, is thrilled to introduce an innovative gifting feature that redefines how we think about sharing value. With the integration of virtual gift cards, Metal X is setting a new standard for convenience and accessibility in the world of digital assets.

Seamlessly Connect and Gift with WebAuth Wallets

Imagine wanting to send a token of appreciation to a friend, colleague, or loved one. Metal X now makes this possible at the click of a button. Users can create a virtual gift card backed by a robust smart contract on the XPR Network (contract: gift.card). By simply connecting their WebAuth wallet, they can send a variety of tokens available on the Metal X trading markets — from the popular XPR, XBTC, and XETH to the beloved XDOGE and beyond.

Step-by-Step Guide: Sending a Virtual Gift Card on Metal X

Step 1: Connect Your WebAuth Wallet

Begin by logging into your Metal X account. Navigate to the 'Gift' section in the menu. Ensure your WebAuth wallet is connected. This is your secure gateway to accessing the Metal X platform and initiating the gifting process.

Step 2: Create Your Gift Card

Once in the 'Gift' section, you'll find two simple fields: 'Amount' and 'Token.' Here's where you specify the value of the gift and the type of token you wish to send. Metal X offers a diverse selection, ensuring you can personalize your gift to the recipient's preferences.

Step 3: Choose Token and Amount

Select the desired cryptocurrency from the dropdown list. This list includes all tokens supported by the Metal X trading markets, providing a broad range of options. Enter the amount you wish to gift in the 'Amount' field.

Step 4: Generate the Gift Card

With your token and amount set, click the 'Create' button. Metal X will prompt you to sign the transaction with your WebAuth wallet. This signature is a security measure that verifies your identity and authorizes the creation of the gift card.

Step 5: Secure Your Redeem Link

Upon confirmation, you will be presented with a unique gift card code and a corresponding redeem link. It is crucial to copy this link immediately and store it securely. This link is one-of-a-kind and is your only means to share the gift card with your intended recipient.

Step 6: Send the Gift

Now, share the redeem link with the recipient. This can be done through any secure messaging platform of your choice. Make sure to communicate the exclusivity of the link, as only the first person to use it will be able to claim the gift.

Step 7: Redeeming the Gift

The recipient, after receiving the link, will connect their own WebAuth wallet and select 'Redeem.' They will be prompted to sign a transaction to validate their claim. Upon successful redemption, a green notification will confirm the transaction, and the funds will be instantly transferred from the gift.card smart contract to the recipient's account.

Step 8: Confirmation

The recipient will see a green toast notification confirming the successful redemption of the gift card. The funds are now in their WebAuth wallet, ready to be used or held as they see fit.

By following these simple steps, you can quickly and securely send a gift that's not just thoughtful but also reflects the modern age we live in. Enjoy the process of giving with Metal X, where cryptocurrency gifting is made effortless.

First-Come, First-Serve: A Unique Claiming Experience

What sets Metal X's crypto gift cards apart is the exclusive claim system. The gift card holds its value until the first person uses the link to execute the claim action on the card. This one-time redeem feature not only protects the gift's integrity but also adds an element of excitement for the recipient.
