Cake Wallet is a non-custodial, open-source cryptocurrency wallet. It lets users store, send, exchange, and spend crypto with built-in privacy tools and hardware wallet support.

Cake Wallet is a non-custodial, open-source cryptocurrency wallet for mobile and desktop. Users keep their own keys and can store, send, receive, and exchange various cryptocurrencies, with Monero and other privacy-focused assets as a core focus. Built-in swaps and buy and sell options run through third-party providers.

Privacy features include Tor routing, custom node connections, Silent Payments for Bitcoin, and no data collection or telemetry. Security options include biometric authentication, two-factor protection, and support for hardware wallets. Cupcake, an air-gapped signing app, turns a spare phone into a hardware-style signer for the wallet.

The same product family includes Cake Pay, which lets users buy gift cards and prepaid cards with crypto without a bank or ID. Cake Wallet is used by privacy-conscious individuals and everyday crypto users who want self-custody with built-in spending options.
