How do I set up my new Burner?

A quick guide to onboarding your new Burner.

Updated over a week ago

Setting up your Burner wallet is simple. Just tap it with an NFC-capable device, and BurnerOS should open in your default browser.

  1. Click the GET STARTED and tap your Burner when prompted.

  2. Choose your setup mode. To continue, click SET UP AS A GIFT CARD or SET UP AS A WALLET.


a) Set up as a Gift Card

  1. Enter a PIN code, click the SET PIN CODE, and tap your Burner to confirm the PIN.

  2. Name the gift card. Don’t worry, this isn’t permanent—the recipient can change the name at any time. Click the SET NAME AND FINISH and tap your Burner to confirm.

  3. And you're done! Now you can gift the Burner, and the recipient will be able to add more funds, spend the funds, and swap between ETH <> USD II on Base.


b) Set up as a Wallet

  1. Generate your wallet’s private key. Adding randomness is optional but enhances the uniqueness of your key, adding an extra layer of security. Click the CONTINUE button to proceed to the next step.

  2. Confirm the key generation by clicking CONFIRM KEY.

  3. Enter a PIN code, click the SET PIN CODE, and tap your Burner to confirm.

  4. Name your wallet and set an ENS name. You can change either at any time. If you prefer, you can skip the ENS name registration at this step. Click SET NAME AND FINISH and tap your Burner to confirm.


  5. And you're done! You can now deposit funds and start using your Burner as your everyday crypto wallet.
