Bitcoin Cash paper wallet sweep/import

[cryptotrd]

I'm attempting a test send from a BCH paper wallet I created and filled with BCH. I assumed that I could import/sweep BCH into my bitcoin.com app BCH wallet by scanning the private QR code, however I get an error "incorrect code format". Same error with WIF QR codes for the same private key. Is this not possible? This protocol works just fine on blockchain.info using a bitcoin wallet private key to import/sweep.

"Same error with WIF QR codes for the same private key"

Is the WIF private key compressed? (52 characters base58, starts with a 'K' or 'L')

Or is it 51 characters base58, starts with a '5' ? If so, I believe that you'll need to compress it before you'll be able to sweep it into a Bitcoin.com wallet.

Thanks for the response. I tried with both the compressed and non-compressed WIF codes. Both resulted in the same error message.
