Can I change the destination address after submitting a crypto send?

No — once a crypto send transaction is submitted and broadcast to the blockchain, the destination address can't be changed, for the same reason it can't be cancelled: blockchain transactions are irreversible. Always verify the address before confirming.


Good to know:

  • The destination address is locked in the moment your transaction is broadcast — there's no edit option afterward.
  • This applies regardless of whether the mistake is a typo, the wrong network, or the wrong recipient entirely.
  • The only real protection is checking the address carefully before you tap confirm.

Related questions:

Q: What if I notice a typo in the address right after confirming?
It's too late once the transaction is broadcast — there's no way to edit or intercept it afterward.

Q: Can Pluang Care update the destination address for me?
No — Pluang Care can help investigate a transaction, but cannot change a destination address that's already been submitted.

Q: Is there a way to cancel and re-send with the correct address?
No — the original transaction can't be cancelled; you would need to make a completely new transaction with the correct address.

Q: How can I avoid needing to change an address after sending?
Double-check the destination address, network, and asset carefully every time before confirming — this is the only real safeguard.
