Trust Wallet Extension

Enhance your crypto experience — secure self-custody, easy dApp access, and seamless browser-based Web3 interactions.

Overview

What is the Trust Wallet Extension?

The Trust Wallet Browser Extension is a non-custodial crypto wallet that lives in your browser. It provides secure private-key storage, direct access to thousands of decentralized apps (dApps), built-in token swaps, and NFT management — all without exposing your private keys to third parties.

Why use a browser extension?

Browser extensions bridge the convenience of desktop browsing with the security of self-custody wallets. They let you interact with DeFi, market NFTs, and sign transactions directly from your browser while keeping full control over keys and seed phrases.

Key Benefits

Security-first design

Trust Wallet stores keys locally and uses encrypted storage with password protection. Users import or create a recovery phrase and are reminded to keep it offline and private.

Multi-chain & token support

The extension supports 100+ blockchains, letting you manage many token types and NFTs without switching wallets or interfaces.

Seamless dApp access

Connect to exchanges, marketplaces, play-to-earn games, and other Web3 services directly from your browser, leveraging WalletConnect and standard web3 provider APIs where appropriate.

Getting Started

Install & setup

Install the extension for Chrome, Brave, and other Chromium-based browsers. Create a new wallet or import an existing one using a seed phrase. Set a strong password and back up your recovery phrase immediately.

Pro tip

Never share your recovery phrase. Trust Wallet support will never ask for it.

Using the extension

Send/receive tokens, add custom tokens, manage multiple accounts, and import wallets from MetaMask or other providers. Use the built-in swap feature to exchange tokens without leaving the extension UI.

Security & Best Practices

Protect your recovery phrase

Write it down on paper (or use a hardware-safe method), store it offline in a secure place, and never enter it into websites or share it over chat/email.

Beware of phishing

Always verify URLs before connecting. Follow official Trust Wallet channels for updates and never trust unsolicited messages that ask for your seed phrase or private keys.

Keep software updated

Update the extension and your browser regularly; review release notes and official blog posts for security advisories.

Advanced Features & Tips

Developer & power-user options

Advanced users can add custom RPCs, tweak gas settings for transactions, and import wallets created in other browsers. Developers can consult Trust Wallet’s developer docs to integrate dApps and list assets.

Token management

Add custom tokens manually if they don’t appear automatically, and verify contract addresses from trusted sources.

Interoperability

Use WalletConnect and Trust Wallet mobile & extension together to move seamlessly between devices.
