Bitcoin payment - best wallet to use?
I'm ready to place my first order but I'm stuck on the Bitcoin payment part. I've never used crypto before.
What wallet do you guys recommend for beginners? I've heard of Coinbase, Blockchain.com, and some others but not sure which is best for this purpose.
Also, how long does it usually take for vendors to confirm payment after you send it? Any tips for not messing this up would be appreciated!

Honestly I'd just skip Coinbase for this, their holds and withdrawal delays drive people nuts when a vendor's waiting. Cash App works but if speed matters, check whether they take litecoin since network fees are way lower and confirmations fly by comparison.
After you send, copy that bitcoin transaction ID and paste it to the vendor, it speeds up confirmation on their end. Double check the address twice, no undo button in crypto.

Make sure you double check the wallet address before sending! I once sent $150 to the wrong address and it was gone forever.

Cash App is super easy for beginners. You can buy Bitcoin right in the app and send it directly. Usually takes 10-30 minutes for vendors to confirm.

I use Coinbase for buying BTC but then transfer to a separate wallet like Exodus before sending to vendors. Keeps things more private.

Thanks everyone! I'll try Cash App since it sounds the easiest. And I'll triple check that address for sure.
