You can claim a Phantom username while setting up your wallet or later in Settings. A username helps you send and receive transfers with Phantom Cash and gives your Phantom profile a recognizable identity.
If you restore a wallet that was created with Apple or Google login, your username stays associated with that wallet, but you’ll need to claim it again.
Claim during wallet setup
When you create a new Phantom wallet, you’re prompted to create a username during onboarding.
- On the Create Username screen, enter the username you want.
- Check whether it’s available.
- Select Continue.
You can change your username after 14 days.
Claim from settings
If you skipped username creation during setup, you can claim one later in Settings.
- Select your profile avatar in the upper left.
- Go to Settings and select Create your @username at the top.
- Enter the username you want.
- Check whether it’s available.
- Select Continue.
You can change your username after 14 days.
