Getting started with cryptocurrency can feel overwhelming, especially when it comes to setting up your first wallet. The fear of making a mistake or not fully understanding the process can hold many people back. But don’t worry—creating a secure crypto wallet is easier than you think!
In this guide, we’ll walk you through the simple steps to create your own crypto wallet using Klever Wallet. Whether you’re completely new to the space or just looking for a quick refresher, you’ll have your wallet up and running in no time!
Step 1: Download and Install Klever Wallet
The first step is to get the right tool for the job. Head over to your mobile app store and download Klever Wallet:
- iOS Users – Apple App Store
- Android Users – Google Play Store
Once downloaded, install the app and get ready for the setup process.
Step 2: Create a New Wallet
After launching the app, you’ll see two options:
- Create Wallet – This is for setting up a brand-new crypto wallet.
- Restore Wallet – If you already have a wallet and need to recover it on a new device, you’ll use this option with your seed phrase (we’ll cover this later).
Since we’re starting fresh, tap “Create Wallet.”
Step 3: Secure Your Wallet
Security is everything in crypto, so this step is crucial.
- Set a 6-digit PIN – This will protect access to your wallet. Choose a PIN that’s unique but easy for you to remember.
- Enable Biometric Security (Optional) – You can activate fingerprint or facial recognition for even faster and more secure access.
Pro Tip: Avoid using obvious PINs like 123456 or your birthday. Instead, pick a number sequence that’s meaningful to you but hard to guess.
Step 4: Customize Your Wallet
Once your wallet is created, you’ll be able to select which cryptocurrencies you want to display. Simply toggle on the ones you plan to use or track.
You can also create multiple wallets for different tokens, depending on your needs.
Note: You don’t have to do this immediately. You can always modify your selection later.
Step 5: Find Your Wallet Address
To receive crypto, you’ll need your unique wallet address.
- Tap “Receive”
- Select the cryptocurrency you want to receive
- Your wallet address and QR code will appear
You can share this address safely with others to receive funds, but never share your private key or seed phrase!
Step 6: Validate Your Seed Phrase
This is the most important step in securing your funds. When you create your wallet, the app generates a 24-word seed phrase. These words act as a recovery key in case you lose access to your device.
To validate your seed phrase:
- Tap the “Validate Seed” notification.
- Enter your PIN or Biometric ID.
- Tap “Reveal Secret” and write down the 24 words in order.
- Store them somewhere offline—never on a digital device.
- Confirm the words in the correct order to complete the validation.
Warning: Anyone with your seed phrase can access your wallet and funds. Never share it with anyone—not even with Klever support.
Accessing Your Seed Phrase Later
Need to view your seed phrase again? You can retrieve it anytime:
- Open Klever Wallet.
- Go to the Hub Screen.
- Scroll down and tap “Backup Wallet.”
- Accept the security alert.
- Select any cryptocurrency, then tap “Seed” to reveal your recovery words.
Reminder: Always store your seed phrase securely offline. Avoid taking screenshots or saving it on cloud storage.
