Paste your epicbox address
Epicbox delivers the transaction to your wallet through a relay, so nothing has to reach your machine directly and there are no files to move. Leave your wallet listening and it completes on its own.
Where do I find my address?
Run this against your own floonet wallet. It prints the epicbox address as the first line.
epic-wallet --floonet addressThen leave a listener running so the payment can complete. It has to be running when the faucet's transaction arrives, or shortly after — the relay holds the message until your wallet next connects.
epic-wallet --floonet listen -m epicbox- 52 characters, starting zz. A floonet address always begins zz. One beginning es is a mainnet address and will be refused — run your wallet with --floonet to get the right one.
- The @domain part is optional here. If you leave it off we add the faucet's relay for you.
- Nothing arrives? Check the listener is running and is pointed at the same relay. The faucet's transaction waits at the relay, so starting the listener late still works.
Always works
Or exchange a file
An Epic payment is built by both sides together, so there is a round trip. You download a half-finished transaction, your own wallet signs it, and you send it back. Nothing needs to reach your machine, so this works behind NAT or on a network you do not control.
-
Download the transaction.
-
Sign it with your wallet. Local only — it reads the chain height and nothing else.
epic-wallet --floonet receive -i <the downloaded file>That writes a second file beside the first, ending .response.
-
Upload the .response file. The faucet finishes the transaction and broadcasts it.
If you run a server
Straight to a wallet listener
If your wallet's listener is reachable from the internet, the faucet posts the transaction to it and finishes immediately.
epic-wallet --floonet listenThe address must be publicly routable. The faucet runs on a server, so localhost and private ranges cannot work and are refused rather than failing silently.
Programmatic
From a script
The same endpoints this page uses. There is no amount parameter — every payout is the flat amount shown at the top.

-H 'content-type: application/json' --data @payout.tx.json.responseLimits are per address and per IP, resetting on a rolling 24 hours. Every refusal carries a stable code beside its message, and every 429 carries Retry-After, so a client can back off properly instead of guessing. Full API reference

Finished with a test wallet, or mined more than you need? The faucet receives over epicbox at the address below. It listens continuously, so a transfer completes on its own.
