SubWallet
SubWallet is the comprehensive non-custodial wallet solution for Polkadot, Substrate & Ethereum ecosystems. Built on top of Polkadot {.js}, SubWallet focuses on improving UX & UI. We envision a crypto wallet as a Web3 multiverse gateway through which users can enjoy multi-chain services with utmost ease and absolute security. This guide will show you how to manage your accounts, tokens, stake your tokens in-app, and connect to the Creditcoin Staking Dashboard using SubWallet!
Install SubWallet
SubWallet is available on a range of platforms for you to choose from:
A browser extension which is available on Google Chrome, Brave, MS Edge and Firefox.
A mobile app which is available on the App Store and Google Play Store.
A web dashboard that does not require any downloading and can be accessed through https://web.subwallet.app
For this tutorial, we will walk you through the process of creating a wallet using the browser extension.
Setup an account
Once you have installed the extension, you'll have the option to create, import or attach an account (Ledger, Keystone, Polkadot Vault and Watch-only account)
:memo: Note Creditcoin is a Substrate-native chain, so you will only be able to view and interact with Creditcoin by creating or importing a Substrate account.
Create a new account
To create a new account, click on Create a new account.
You will then need to create your master password which keeps all of your accounts secure. Once you have entered the password and then confirmed it, click on Continue.
:memo: Note For each seed phrase created with SubWallet, you would have a Substrate account and an Ethereum account. Substrate account would display your assets on Substrate-native blockchains (such as Creditcoin, Polkadot, Kusama), while Ethereum account would display your assets on Ethereum chains (such as Moonbeam).
Now you will be shown a seed phrase together with the option to back it up. Once you have saved and stored it in a safe place, choose I have kept it somewhere safe.
⚠️ Caution You should never share your seed phrase (mnemonic) or private key with anyone. This gives them direct access to your funds.
You have finished creating a new account! If you want to create additional accounts, follow these steps:
Choose the accounts tab on the top of the extension.
Click on Create a new account and repeat the steps above.
Import an existing account
To import an account that you have already created, choose Import an account.
:memo: Note Creditcoin is a Substrate-native chain, so you will only be able to view and interact with Creditcoin by creating or importing a Substrate account.
Then you can choose your preferred method of importing.
After you have chosen a method, you will be prompted to create a master password. Enter your password and click on Continue.
⚠️ Caution Please note that SubWallet is non-custodial, so you would be the only person who knows your password; we cannot help you restore your password once it is lost. Please make sure that your password is well-kept.
Using seed phrase
You could choose between importing either a Substrate account or Ethereum account, or both. After choosing, click on Import account
Enter your seed phrase in the text boxes. You can use either a 12-word seed phrase or a 24-word seed phrase to import your account. Click on Import account and your account has been imported!
❗ Incompatibility In some cases, if you import an account from a seed phrase, problems can arise if the seed phrase of your original wallet is not compatible with SubWallet. Trust Wallet and Safepal are among the wallets not compatible with us.
Using Polkadot.js JSON file
You can import a Polkadot.js account after exporting the JSON backup file. Click on the Import from Polkadot.js field to upload a file from your device, or drag and drop your JSON file into the field.
You will then need to enter your JSON file password (created when you set up the wallet for the first time) and click Import by JSON file.
:memo: Note If you want to import multiple accounts simultaneously from a JSON file, you are required to enter the password for each account you want to import.
Using MetaMask private key
Once you have exported your private key, enter it into the text box then click on Import account.
Using QR code
Click on Scan QR. If you have not enabled camera access yet, a message will show up prompting you to Go to settings.
On the settings page, toggle on Camera access for QR then head back to the QR page, click on Scan QR and scan your accounts' QR code. After the successful import of your account by QR code, you will be directed to the Homepage.
Import additional accounts
You have finished importing your account! If you want to import additional accounts, follow these steps:
Choose the accounts tab on the top of the extension.
Click on the Import icon and repeat the steps above.
