Receiving SOL tokens

  • To receive SOL tokens that youve purchased or earned, you need to send your Receive Address to whoever is sending you tokens.
  • Tap “Receive” to view a QR code and your text address, which is a long string of letters and numbers.
  • Tap “Copy” or “Share” to send the address.
  • Be very careful when you copy and paste your receive address anywhere that you do not miss any characters at the beginning or end of the string.
  • If you send an incorrect Receive address to someone and they send tokens to that address, those tokens will be lost forever.

Sending SOL tokens

You can send SOL from your Trust Wallet to any other valid address on the Solana network. Once you know the other party's receiving address, go to the main page of the wallet from which you want to send some SOL tokens:

  • Tap the "Solana" icon.
  • Tap "Send"
  • Under "Recipient Address":
    • If you already have the receiving address you are going to send to, tap "Paste"
    • If you are transferring to another Trust Wallet user, you can use the app's QR code reader by tapping the square icon to the right of the "Paste" button.
  • Under "Amount", enter the amount of SOL you want to send, or tap "Max" to send all of the SOL in your wallet to the new address
  • Tap "Next" to view a summary/confirmation page to review before submitting the transaction
    • The real-time network transaction fee will be shown. This fee will be paid by the sending account in addition to the full amount transferred.
      • If you chose to send all your tokens to the new address by selecting "Max" under amount, the amount sent to the recipient will be the account balance minus the current network transaction fee.
    • Make sure you entered the "To" address correctly and that it matches your desired wallet's receiving address!
  • Tap "Send" to submit the transaction. The transaction will show as "Pending" for a few seconds, and then will show as "Sent".

Using Multiple Wallet Addresses

Trust Wallet allows you to create multiple wallets, each of which is secured by a different set of random seed words. If you want to use more than one Solana address, follow these steps.

Create an additional wallet

  • In the main page of the Trust Wallet App, tap "Settings" in the bottom-right corner.
  • Tap "Wallets"
  • Tap "+" to create a new Wallet
  • Follow the steps above to add SOL tokens to your new wallet

Note: In the "Wallets" page under "Settings" you can re-name each of your wallets. Consider giving each a descriptive name if you are planning to use your wallets for different purposes, so you don't mistake one for the other.

Transferring SOL between your wallets

Just like you can transfer SOL to another party, you can transfer SOL between wallets that you own.

  • Copy the receive address of your newly created wallet.
    • Make sure your new wallet is selected by going to "Settings" --> "Wallets", then tap on the name of your new wallet.
    • Tap the "Solana" icon.
    • Tap "Receive" then tap "Copy".
  • Select your previous/original wallet which already has some SOL by going to "Settings" --> "Wallets", then tap on the name of your original wallet.
    • Now follow the same process for sending SOL tokens using your new wallet's receiving address as the address in the "To" field when you make the transfer.
