Learn the steps to connect your Best Wallet to mobile websites and decentralized applications (dApps).
This is useful if you want to use your Best Wallet to buy a new token, transact on a decentralized exchange, or use an online crypto casino all from your mobile device.
By connecting your Best Wallet, you allow your wallet to interact seamlessly with the website or dApp to carry out transactions securely without revealing any sensitive information.
Note: It is important to only connect your Best Wallet to trusted websites and dApps. If you're unsure about a website, please don't connect your wallet. By connecting your wallet and approving transactions on a phishing website, you run the risk of getting your funds stolen.
The most common way to connect your Best Wallet to websites/dApps will be via WalletConnect. This is an open protocol for connecting desktop dApps to mobile crypto wallets, often via a QR code that you can scan in Best Wallet.
Step 1: Go to the mobile website or dApp
Head to your chosen crypto platform’s website or app and find the connect wallet button. For example, when on the mobile website for Dextools.io, you have to first go to the drop-down menu.
Next, tap the "Connect" button at the bottom.
Step 2: Connect your wallet
How you connect your wallet will depend on what website or dApp you are using. It should always be relatively straightforward but refer to that respective website or dApp’s help guides if you encounter an issue.
In Dextools, the Connect button will take you to the User Account page, where you can then connect your wallet.
Once you’ve pressed “Connect”, you can connect directly with different wallet providers or use WalletConnect.
To find Best Wallet, first tap "All Wallets".
Next, search “Best Wallet” in the search bar, and tap the Best Wallet logo.
Once you select the Best Wallet option, you will get an option to open your Best Wallet app. It is safe to click "Open" as it will just bring you to a permission page in the Best Wallet app, and will not automatically connect.
Next, you need to manually connect your wallet. You also have the option to select which wallet you want to connect — just tap your wallet name and select the one you want to use.
Once you’ve selected the correct wallet, click the “Connect” button.
Once you've pressed "Connect", you'll get a notification confirming the connection to the dApp and website.
Step 3: Use your wallet on the mobile website or dApp
Your Best Wallet should now be connected to the platform.
Head back to the website or dApp that you are using and you should be able to use your wallet connected.
Things to remember
The best crypto practice is to only connect your Best Wallet to websites or dApps you trust and are widely used. Double-check each website before, ensuring they are the legitimate website/dApp you want to use.
Although connecting your wallet is relatively safe, it is still best to exercise caution and research each website or dApp you want to interact with your Best Wallet.
Once you’ve finished using a website or dApp, it’s good practice to straightaway disconnect your Best Wallet.
