New to Algorand?

Step 1: Set up a Non-Custodial Algorand Wallet

We recommend using the Pera Wallet or Defly.

A non-custodial wallet means YOU control your private keys and no-one else. You’re solely responsible for the safe keeping of your private keys. If you lose your private key there is no recovery process.

Pera Wallet / Defly Wallet Set-Up

  1. Once you’ve downloaded Pera / Defly you can choose to add a new account or recover with a passphrase. If you already have an Algorand account, hit “Recover With Passphrase” and enter in your 25-word private key to import your wallet.

  2. If you wish to create a new account, press “Add New Account”

  3. Next press “Create New Account”

  4. WRITE DOWN your seed phrase on paper and store it safely, this is your private key.

Although wallets allow you to create an account without backing up the seed phrase, we highly advise against it!

Step 2: Transfer ALGO from an Exchange to a Non-Custodial Wallet

On your exchange account:

  1. press Withdraw

  2. Copy your wallet address from Pera or Defly and paste the address in

  3. Confirm withdrawal

Now you're free to connect your Pera / Defly wallets to Algorand apps like NFDomains! See our integrators list to find cool Algorand projects!
