What is NOW Wallet
NOW Wallet is a non-custodial cryptocurrency wallet used to store, send, and receive digital assets and interact with supported blockchain networks. It targets individual users who want a self-managed wallet with in-app token swaps and multi-asset support. The product emphasizes client-side key control and integrates exchange functionality through third-party liquidity providers rather than operating as a full-service custodial platform.
Non-custodial key ownership
The wallet is designed so users control their private keys and recovery information rather than delegating custody to the provider. This reduces reliance on a centralized custodian for routine transfers and storage. It also aligns with self-custody operational models used by individuals and small teams that do not require institutional governance features.
In-app swap functionality
NOW Wallet includes built-in exchange/swap capabilities, allowing users to convert between supported assets without leaving the wallet interface. This can simplify common workflows compared with using a separate exchange account and moving funds between services. The swap feature typically relies on integrated third-party exchange or aggregation services, which can broaden available pairs.
Multi-asset wallet coverage
The product supports multiple cryptocurrencies and networks, enabling users to manage different assets in one application. This reduces the need to maintain separate wallets for each chain or token standard. For users with diversified holdings, consolidated portfolio management and transaction history in one place can be operationally simpler.
Limited enterprise controls
NOW Wallet is primarily oriented to individual self-custody rather than institutional treasury operations. It generally lacks advanced policy controls such as role-based approvals, configurable transaction policies, and audit workflows that enterprises often require. Organizations needing governance, segregation of duties, and compliance reporting may need additional tooling.
Swap pricing and execution risk
In-app swaps depend on external liquidity providers and network conditions, which can affect final execution price, fees, and settlement time. Users may experience slippage, variable spreads, or failed/expired quotes during volatile markets. The wallet provider typically cannot guarantee execution outcomes because the trade routes and fees are determined by integrated services and blockchains.
Support and recovery constraints
As with most non-custodial wallets, account recovery depends on the user’s backup (seed phrase or equivalent). If recovery data is lost or compromised, assets may be unrecoverable regardless of vendor support. This places operational burden on users to implement secure backup, device security, and phishing-resistant practices.
