To get started, visit the official Solflare website to download the wallet. Click Add to Brave (this option will vary depending on your browser, such as Chrome, Brave, or Edge), then click the Add Extension button
After installing the app, open it and click the “I NEED A NEW WALLET” button. This will guide you through the initial setup process, which is straightforward and helps you create a secure digital wallet.
During setup, you’ll receive a recovery phrase (a set of words that is your key to accessing your wallet).
It’s extremely important to write this phrase down on paper and store it securely in a safe, offline location. Do not save it digitally or share it with anyone.
Your recovery phrase is your ultimate access key, and losing it can lead to permanent loss of your funds. Similarly, anyone who obtains it can access your wallet and funds.
To ensure you’ve correctly saved your recovery phrase, Solflare will guide you through a quick verification.
You’ll be asked to confirm words from your recovery phrase.
Follow the instructions, fill in the correct word(s), and click “Continue.”
This step ensures that you’ve securely backed up your access key.
Create a security code as an additional layer of protection for your assets.
Congratulations! Your Solflare wallet setup is now complete, and you’re ready to manage your Solana assets securely.
