Question 1

How do I create a wallet

Accepted Answer

Please follow these steps in order to create a wallet via email;

Visit https://wallet.venly.io/
Press "Create Account"
Enter email address and choose a password
You will receive a code via email, enter this code when asked to provide it
Choose a PIN and enter it twice (Here's a link with more info on a PIN code)

Press the type of wallet you prefer (e.g. click the ethereum logo if you want an ethereum wallet)
Press "Create new wallet"
Enter your PIN from step 5

I forgot my PIN

Our security team can provide a recovery pin. To receive one, please explicitly ask for a recovery pin in the support chat and our support team will keep you updated.

After you've received the recovery PIN, you can use it for any transaction that requires a PIN. However it is strongly advised to change it to one of your own choosing. You PIN can then be changed per the following guide:
