# Fund your wallet

> Live verifications are charged to your Dojah wallet. Add funds to keep them running, and turn on auto top-up so you never run dry.

Your **wallet** holds the balance every live request draws from. Each verification is billed per call, so a funded wallet is what keeps live traffic flowing. You can manage it from [Account → Billings](/dashboard-guide/account/billings), where you’ll see your balance, top up, and review your transaction history.

<Note>
  **Sandbox is free.** You only need a funded wallet for **live** verifications. Testing in sandbox never touches your balance.

## Top up your wallet

Select **Top up wallet** from the [Billings page](/dashboard-guide/account/billings) (or the dashboard) and follow the steps:

<Steps>
  <Step title="Enter an amount">
    Type how much you’d like to add — the minimum is **₦50,000**. Before you pay, the modal shows a breakdown of your amount, VAT, and the total.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose a payment method">
    **Paystack** to pay instantly by card, or **Bank Transfer** to send the total to Dojah’s account details shown in the modal.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Pay">
    Complete the payment. Your balance updates as soon as the payment succeeds, and the top-up appears in your transaction history.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Auto Top-Up

Rather than topping up by hand, turn on **Auto Top-Up** to add funds automatically whenever your balance runs low — so live verifications never stop for an empty wallet.

| Setting            | What it does                                                           |
| ------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Auto Top-Up toggle | Turns automatic funding on or off.                                     |
| Threshold          | The balance that triggers a top-up. Set it under **Manage threshold**. |
| Configure          | Set the top-up amount and the saved card used for automatic payments.  |

<Tip>
  **Tip.** Auto Top-Up needs a saved card on file. Once it’s set, top-ups happen in the background and show up in your transaction history like any other payment.
</Tip>

## Transaction history

Every top-up is recorded under [Billings](/dashboard-guide/account/billings) with its amount, VAT, total, reference number, payment type, and status (**Successful**, **Initiated**, or **Failed**). You can search, filter, and export the list. The full billing breakdown is covered later under [Account → Billings](/dashboard-guide/account/billings).
