In this guide, you’ll learn how to connect and use your Phantom wallet with a variety of NFT marketplaces. The procedures in this guide also serve as an excellent introduction to how you can connect with other apps throughout the rest of the web3 universe.
Connecting with your desktop Phantom wallet (extension)
Step 1: Click on the “Connect Wallet” button when navigating to the NFT Marketplace of your choice. (If you’ve never been to an NFT Marketplace in the past, check the bottom of our guide for some suggestions!)
Step 2: In most instances, a pop-up will appear that will allow you to select your wallet. In this case, you’ll want to locate and select “Phantom” to connect.
- In some instances, if you have multiple wallets installed, a pop up will appear for you to select the wallet you wish to use on their platform. Naturally, you’ll want to use your Phantom wallet!
- In the rare instance when you encounter an NFT marketplace or other web3 app that doesn’t show Phantom (and when it is your only installed wallet) initially as an option among wallet providers, selecting the “Metamask” option will typically open your Phantom wallet to connect.
Step 3: Verify your connection! Clicking on the account section of your NFT marketplace or viewing your profile will reveal and verify that you have successfully connected your Phantom wallet! Congratulations!
