Getting started
Quickstart
Connect a wallet and place your first trade in a few minutes.
1. Connect a wallet
- 1Select Log in in the top-right corner.
- 2Choose how to sign in: email, Google or a passkey, a Zipr wallet made in this browser, or a Solana wallet such as Phantom, Solflare, Backpack or a Ledger.
- 3Approve the connection, then sign the short sign-in message. Signing is free and sends no transaction. Zipr only reads your public address and never asks for your seed phrase or private key.
Zipr will never ask for your seed phrase
No Zipr page, message or support contact will ever ask for your recovery phrase or private key. Anyone who does is attempting to steal your funds.2. Fund your wallet
You trade from your own wallet balance. Select Deposit in the header to receive from an exchange or another wallet, bridge funds from another network, or buy with a card. See Deposits. Keep a little SOL in your wallet to pay network fees.
3. Make your first trade
- 1Open Swap and choose the token you pay with and the token you want to receive.
- 2Enter an amount. The quote, route and minimum received update as you type.
- 3Select Review Swap, check the summary, then confirm in your wallet.
- 4Track the transaction on the Portfolio page. It appears in Activity as soon as it is confirmed on-chain.
