An alias is a unique identifier for your wallet that you can give to your friends to receive money in your walletii from any other wallet or bank. During the sign-up process, you’ll be given a random alias, but you can change it later in the settings. All walletii aliases end in @WLTI, as this indicates that you have a walletii wallet. We recommend changing the part before the @ to something you can easily remember.

FAQ help icon.

Your default wallet is the one that receives any money sent to your phone number. If you have other wallets, you can set walletii as your default wallet by going to your profile and enabling the ‘Set as default wallet’ switch. If you want another wallet to be your default wallet, you must set this from the other wallet.

How do I close my walletii account?

FAQ help icon.

We hope you don’t choose to close your account but, if you decide to do so, go to your profile settings → Account details → Close account. Make sure you have a wallet balance of OMR 0 before doing so. Otherwise, we can’t close your account. Once you’ve successfully requested your account’s closure, we’ll process it within two weeks.
