Getting started

Three steps and you're in

No account to create, nothing to verify. Lace runs entirely from your browser.

1

Install the extension

Add Lace to Chrome, Brave or Firefox. It takes seconds, and there's nothing else to set up.

2

Create or restore a wallet

Start a new wallet and write down the recovery phrase, or restore one you already have. That phrase stays with you.

3

Add Cardano and start exploring

Send assets to your new address, or connect to a DApp and use what you already hold.

Security

Your keys never leave your device

Lace is non-custodial, which means your wallet is created on your own device and the keys stay there. There is no company account holding your assets, and no password that unlocks them.

key

Created on your device

Your wallet is generated locally the first time you open the extension.

lock

The recovery phrase is the backup

Write it down and keep it offline. Anyone who has it can reach the wallet, so never type it into a website.

usb

Hardware wallets welcome

Keep larger holdings in cold storage and connect your device when you need to sign.

Questions

What people ask before installing

Installing the extension costs nothing and there's no subscription. You'll only pay standard Cardano network fees when you send assets or use a DApp, and those go to the network, not to Lace.

No. Lace is non-custodial, so your keys are created and stored on your own device. Nobody at Lace can move your assets or freeze your wallet.

Your wallet can be restored on any device from the recovery phrase you're given at setup. Keep it written down and offline, and never share it or type it into a website.

Lace runs on Google Chrome, Brave and Firefox. Brave installs from the same Chrome Web Store listing, so Add to Chrome covers both.

No. Install Lace, create a wallet and look around before you add anything. When you're ready, send Cardano assets to your address or transfer them in from an exchange.

Lace connects natively to Cardano and Midnight, including shielded assets on Midnight, and keeps both networks in the same wallet.
