Add accounts to your Phantom wallet

After setting up Phantom, you can add more accounts to your existing wallet. You can create another account from your current recovery phrase, import another wallet, connect a Ledger hardware wallet, or add a watch-only address.

Create a new account

Creates another account from your existing Secret Recovery Phrase without creating a new wallet. Good for keeping things separate without starting over. If you have imported multiple recovery phrases, Phantom asks which one to derive the account from. 

Note: If you imported an existing wallet and some of your previously used accounts aren't showing, see Accounts are missing after importing.

Mobile app

1. On the Home tab, tap your account name above your balance.
2. Tap the + button in the upper right.
3. Tap Create New Account.
4. Tap Create.

Browser extension

1. Click your profile avatar in the upper left.
