If you are holding one or more cryptocurrencies for the long-term, you should prefer to store your funds in a cold wallet for safety and ownership. If you want the speed and flexibility of hot wallets and the security of cold hardware wallets, you can use a Ledger hardware wallet combined with Ledger Live, a software that enables you to easily manage your assets from your desktop or mobile.
In this tutorial, you will learn how to pay an bill using a Ledger Wallet with Request Finance in just a few clicks. To get started, you will need a Request Finance account, a pending crypto bill awaiting payment in the app, a Ledger hardware wallet, and the Ledger Live desktop application.

Step 1: Review and Approve bills
To begin, navigate to the sidebar menu. Click on “Pay” > "Bills".
These bills have to be reviewed, and approved before they can be paid. This is to ensure that the bills you receive are both legitimate, and correct.
You can approve and pay bills individually, or in a batch.
In the same dashboard, select the bills you want to approve by checking the box next to them and clicking on “Approve.”

Once the status of the selected bills is updated, re-select them and click the blue button “Batch Payment.”
