How to Design Transaction Review Screens for Crypto Apps
A transaction review screen is not just a confirmation screen. In a crypto product, it is a trust checkpoint where users decide whether they understand the action enough to continue.
1. Put the recipient first
Show who or what the user is sending to. Use readable names when possible, but keep the full address accessible for verification.
2. Separate amount, fee, and final cost
Users should not have to calculate what they are spending. Show the transfer amount, network fee, and total clearly.
3. Explain the network
Network mismatch is a common source of confusion. Show the selected network, warning states, and whether the recipient or asset supports it.
4. Prepare users for the wallet prompt
Tell users what the wallet will ask them to do before the wallet opens. Reduce surprise at the signing moment.
5. Design post-transaction states
Pending, confirmed, failed, delayed, and rejected states all need clear copy and useful next steps.
