Sending Nxt from the NRS client

  1. Access your Nxt client (go to http://localhost:7876/ or http://127.0.0.1:7876)
  2. Open your account by entering your secret passphrase in the text field, and then click on the > symbol.
  3. Click on the Send NXT link on the top navigation bar in the client window.
    • A popup labeled Send NXT appears.  Complete the fields as follows:
      • Recipient Account : enter the Nxt account of the receiver.
        • Once the account of the receiver is entered, a text field will appear at the bottom of the window telling you if the receiving account has a public key, and the current balance of the account. You can use this information to help verify that you've entered the correct account address.
      • Amount : enter the amount of NXT you would like to send. If you are going to send a fractional amount (a number with decimals) remember to use a point ( . ) instead of a comma ( , ) before the decimal part of the amount.
      • Fee : Enter the number of NXT you wish to use as transaction fee.  The software will suggest a fee of 1 NXT for every 1000 coins sent (which equates to 0.1%), but you can set the fee to as low as 1 NXT for any transaction amount.
      • Deadline : enter a small number (1 hour is fine; the default is 24 hours).
      • Secret phrase : in order to send a transaction, you need to enter your account's secret passphrase.
  4. Click the Send NXT Button.
    • The Send NXT button will change to Submitting... while your transaction is being prepared.
    • In the upper right hand corner of your browser window, the message NXT has been sent! will appear.
