Manage wallets

Guide users through wallet management with Openfort’s React hooks and UI. Options include:

• Embedded wallet creation during onboarding
• Connecting existing wallets using password or automatic recovery
• Handling wallet activation and switching

Creating a new embedded wallet

To create a new embedded wallet, you can use the useWallets hook. This hook provides methods to create and manage wallets securely.

import { useWallets } from "@openfort/react"
 
function SampleComponent() {
  const {
    createWallet, 
  } = useWallets()
  // ...
}

Using an embedded wallet

To use an embedded wallet, you can access it through the useWallet hook. This hook provides the current active wallet and methods to manage it.

First we need to list what wallets are linked to the user, then we can use setActiveWallet to set the active wallet.

import { useWallets } from "@openfort/react"
 
function SampleComponent() {
  const {
    wallets, 
    setActiveWallet, 
  } = useWallets()
  // ...
}
