Wanting to send CELO to my Valora wallet from my CoinBase account in order to convert to cUSD.

I noticed that CoinBase’s send page for CELO suggests a phone number _or_ an email address. I also read somewhere that it might be possible to register a second phone number in Valora. I don’t see anywhere in Valora that I can add an additional account identifier such as a second phone number or an email address. Is this a feature of _some other_ Celo wallet?

Are you referring to what’s in this screenshot @ian ? ![Screen Shot 2021-04-20 at 08.30.48](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/celo/original/1X/f56810e07bb17a9c5c54bb413d33a5745a2af6c3.png)

I think this is simply the same for all held assets on Coinbase. At least, it is the same for me.

Yes, that’s it. I assumed it was custom made for CELO.

That would be really nice but I don’t think Coinbase has customized that screen for CELO, at least going by what I see for my other stored tokens. I don’t know if that can be changed but I’ll raise it with our team. Thank you @ian

I know this is an older post, but I’ve worked with Valora and CoinBase before, and I think the confusion might be due to the fact that Valora typically doesn’t use phone numbers or emails for transfers directly. Instead, it works with your Celo address, which is unique to your wallet. The suggestion to use a phone number or email may be related to other wallet services that integrate phone numbers, like when you’re using [Temporary Phone Numbers](https://www.tardigrada.io/) for added security. When I sent CELO to my Valora wallet, I just used the Celo address directly, and it worked fine. I’d recommend double-checking that you’re using the correct Celo address for transfers.

Hi @Ortydoxx - one of Valora’s key features is the ability to send and receive funds by phone number! Read about it [here](https://support.valoraapp.com/hc/en-us/articles/4402359304077-How-to-send-tokens).
