A WALLET THAT GOES WITH YOU

Meet the Trust Wallet Extension.

Your browser can be a doorway to Web3. The Trust Wallet Extension helps you connect to decentralized apps, manage supported assets, and review what you’re signing—right from your desktop.

Visit the official extension page

Always verify you’re on an official Trust Wallet page before installing.

Keep your Web3 tools close

Use the extension to connect with supported dApps from a compatible desktop browser.

Explore across supported networks

Discover tokens, decentralized apps, and digital collectibles in one wallet experience.

Pause and review each request

Read transaction details carefully. A wallet can’t make a risky approval safe for you.

01 / WALLET BASICS

THE MOST IMPORTANT IDEA

“Self-custody means the keys are yours to protect.”

TRUST WALLET, WITHOUT THE MYSTERY

What is Trust Wallet, really?

Think of Trust Wallet as a self-custody crypto wallet: software that helps you manage access to digital assets and interact with blockchain networks. It doesn’t hold your assets in the same way a bank holds cash. Instead, your wallet uses keys to authorize activity on-chain.

That distinction is important. With self-custody, you’re responsible for keeping your recovery phrase private and backed up safely. Anyone who gets that phrase may be able to control the wallet. Trust Wallet support will never need you to share it.

In plain English: your wallet is a tool for managing keys and signing actions—not a promise that every token, website, or transaction is safe.

Before you set anything up

Download only from an official Trust Wallet source.
Write down your recovery phrase offline and keep it private.
Never share your phrase, even with someone claiming to offer support.

Check Trust Wallet’s official site

02 / NFTS & THE OPEN WEB

Your wallet is a passport.
You choose where to go.

Some websites let you connect a wallet to use a decentralized application (dApp), collect an NFT, or explore an on-chain service. A connection usually identifies an address; a separate transaction or signature may ask you to approve an action.

Those requests aren’t all the same. Read what’s being requested, check the network and destination, and disconnect from sites you no longer use. If anything feels unclear, it’s okay to stop and look it up first.

A helpful habit — Connecting a wallet is not the same as approving every transaction. Take a beat before you sign.

03 / A SAFER START

Small habits.
Meaningful protection.

There’s no magic switch for crypto safety. A few steady habits can make a real difference when you use Trust Wallet or any self-custody wallet.

Guard your recovery phrase

Keep it private and offline. Don’t save it in a screenshot, send it in a message, or type it into a site you reached from a link.

Check the address—and the ask

Look closely at destination addresses and transaction details. Be wary of unexpected approvals, urgent warnings, and giveaway promises.

Use official routes

Bookmark trusted sites, double-check URLs, and get the Trust Wallet Extension only through official Trust Wallet channels.

Slow down when something feels off

Scammers lean on urgency. Step away, verify through an independent official source, and never let pressure make the decision.

A note on risk: Digital assets can be volatile, and blockchain transactions are often irreversible. This site is for general education, not financial, investment, or security advice. Always do your own research.

THAT’S A GOOD PLACE TO START

Curiosity is a powerful tool.

Keep asking questions. Check the source. And remember: in Web3, taking your time is part of taking care.
