Nexwest supports standard EVM wallets and email-based embedded wallets. Both produce the same onchain account, so you can switch interfaces without moving funds.
Supported wallets
| Wallet | Browser | Mobile | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|

Only use official domains
The only official app is app.nexwest.app. Never enter a seed phrase on any site. Nexwest will never ask for one, and support will never DM you first.
Connect from a browser
- Open the app and choose Connect.
- Select a wallet from the list.
- Approve the connection in the wallet extension.
- Sign the gasless Enable Trading message. This derives your API wallet and does not move funds.
- Verify that the account address in the top-right corner matches the wallet you intended to use.
The first signature creates an API wallet scoped to your account. It can place and cancel orders but cannot withdraw funds. You can revoke it at any time from Settings → API wallets.
Add Nexwest to a wallet
If your wallet does not recognize the network, add it manually:
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Network name | Nexwest Mainnet |
| Chain ID | 7777 |
| RPC URL | https://rpc.nexwest.app |
| Currency symbol | NXW |
| Block explorer | https://explorer.nexwest.app |
Testnet uses chain ID 7778 and https://rpc.testnet.nexwest.app.
Email and mobile sessions
Email login creates an embedded wallet protected by a passkey and a six-digit code. The wallet is non-custodial: Nexwest cannot move funds without a signature from the device. You can export the private key or connect the same account to a hardware wallet later.
To connect a mobile device to a desktop session, open Settings → Connect mobile and scan the QR code. The mobile device receives a scoped session; revoking it does not affect the desktop session.
Troubleshooting
- Wallet will not connect. Disable other wallet extensions, refresh the page, and try again. If you use WalletConnect, clear the stale session in the wallet.
- Wrong network. Switch to Nexwest Mainnet (7777). The app will prompt you to add it.
- Signature loop. Close the wallet popup, disconnect the site, and reconnect. See connectivity issues for the full checklist.
- Lost device. Restore the embedded wallet from its recovery method, or use another connected signer to revoke the lost session.
