No matter if you are entirely new to THORWallet DEX or just want to refresh something, this Getting Started guide is going to provide you with everything you need to know. If you do not yet have the app installed, have a look at our "How to install THORWallet DEX" guide.

The first thing after opening the app is a Security Check. The Security Check is performed every time upon opening the app, and it makes sure that THORChain's third-party services are working correctly. After the Security Check, the following screen will appear:

After clicking on the "Get Started" button, you have to agree to the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, after which the wallet setup starts on the following screen:

Here you can either create a new wallet or import an existing THORWallet. We will continue with Create Wallet. After clicking on Create Wallet, you will be asked to write down your unique seed. You can view your seed phrase by clicking on “Backup Wallet”.

Now you will see the following screen with your seed phrase. You can copy the seed to your clipboard and keep it on your phone, but it is highly recommended to keep it off-line. See our guide on "How to store a seed phrase". Remember that both the words and their order matter, so make sure to double-check both the words and their order. Once you are sure that everything is correct, check the box and click on continue.

In the next step, you will create a six-digit PIN code for the wallet. First, you have to enter your PIN and after you have to confirm it.

After setting up the PIN, you can opt to unlock the wallet with biometrics. To do so, click on “Enable biometrics” or click on skip if you do not.

Finally, you can scroll through some information slides about THORWallet’s functionalities or just click on “Get Started”, which will bring you to the “home page” of the app.

From here, you can explore all the functions (Swaps, Receive & Send, Provide Liquidity) the app offers.

TGT (THORWallet Governance Token) is THORWallet's utility token. The token holder can unlock special features such as lower trading fees and participate in the governance process. 

Thanks to the underlying technology of THORChain, THORWallet is currently the only wallet that allows you to swap native assets across chains and earn interest on them. Our app currently supports native BTC, ETH, BNB, BCH, LTC, Doge, and Terra with more chains coming in the future. For example, you can currently earn up to 19% APY on native BTC, 24% on native ETH, or 36% on native LTC.

Besides these features, the app also offers Liquidity Providing, Cross-chain savings account (coming soon), and Lending & Borrowing (in planning). The app also enables you to hold all your NFTs independent of their chain.

What differentiates THORWallet from other software wallets?

With THORWallet, users can swap native assets, earn passive income (through liquidity providing or savings account), and store NFTs. All in a non-custodial way.


We currently have three community tiers: Standard, Community & Community Plus. In each tier you enjoy additional benefits such as premium features/reduced swapping and liquidity providing fees (afflliate fee).  In order to become a community tier you must stake our multi-utility token $TGT either through our app or on our website. 



In this guide, we will show you how to install the THORWallet DEX app on an iPhone, but the app is also available for Android via Google Play.  You can download the app directly from the App Store, just like you would any other app or you can download the app using "TestFlight" if you would like to have access to the newest features as soon as possible. Keep on reading to learn, how to install THORWallet DEX using "TestFlight".

First, open the App Store and look for the "TestFlight" app, which gives you access to beta apps before their release on the App Store.

After successfully installing the "TestFlight" app go to www.thorwallet.org and click on the "Download on the App Store" button. This will directly forward you to the "TestFlight" app, and from there, you can go on to install our app.

When the app is installed, it will appear on your screen with a small orange dot in the lower-left corner (which says that the app is in beta and was installed through "TestFlight"). Now you are all set!

If you are not sure how to set up the wallet, you can have a look at our "Getting Started Guide".

THORwallet DEX is the one stop shop app for the masses to take part in decentralized finance. 

It is a non-custodial wallet that gives you full control over your keys with an integrated cross-chain Dex that allows to swap native L1 coins across different blockchains with no intermediary. This enables swaps for unwrapped BTC vs ETH vs LTC vs BUSD etc. At the same time the app includes earn functionalities like liquidity pooling or savings account. Again non-custodial, pure DeFi.
