How do I create an account on Sound.xyz?

  • Updated

You can either create an account with us by connecting your Ethereum-compatible wallet or by signing up via email. 

 

Connect your Ethereum-compatible wallet:

First you have to make sure you have a wallet and are signed in to it. Click "Sign in" at the top right of our homepage and select the wallet you would like to create your account with.

If you don't see the wallet you're using, you can select "View all wallets" to find the one you want. Once selected, you will be prompted to "sign" a signature request (which doesn't require any ETH).

Your Sound account is now created. You can navigate the platform as you wish and edit your profile by clicking on your account in the top right.

 

If you don't have an Ethereum-compatible wallet but want to create one:

  1. We recommend MetaMask -- download the MetaMask extension for your preferred browser.
  2. Click Get Started → Create a Wallet and follow the instructions in MetaMask to create a wallet.
  3. You’ll receive a 'Secret Recovery Phrase' that is critical for restoring your wallet if you ever lose access to your device. We suggest writing down the secret recovery phrase on paper and storing it in multiple secure locations. Don’t share your secret recovery phrase with anyone else.
  4. Connect your wallet to Sound.xyz by clicking “Sign in” in the top-right corner of the page. Follow the instructions in MetaMask to finish connecting your wallet.

 

Sign-up via email:

To create an account via email hit sign in at the top right of our homepage, enter your email in the box at the top and select continue.

You will then be emailed a 6-digit verification code that you will need to finish creating the account.

Your Sound account is now created and you can fully participate in the Sound ecosystem.

Users that sign-up via email are provisioned a self-custodied wallet powered by Magic. You won't be able to use your wallet on other platforms until you obtain your Private Key. To obtain the Private Key, follow our guide here.

The wallet created via email cannot be combined with your own wallet if you already have one.
