Brave Wallet#
Brave Browser now offers a noncustodial software wallet on both Windows and macOS for Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) integrated chains such as Flare and Songbird.
Getting Started#
To use Brave Wallet with Flare or Songbird, ensure you have:
- Downloaded Brave Browser to your computer, version 1.42.88 or later.
- Initialized a Brave wallet or restored an existing one.
- Protected your Brave wallet with a password.
- Backed up your crypto wallet with a 12-word recovery phrase.
Adding Flare Tokens#
After your wallet is set up, you need to connect to Flare's networks, which will add each network's native token to your listed assets.
- Open Brave browser on your computer.
- Navigate to Settings, and select Web3 from the list of options.
- In the box on the right, click Wallet Networks, and then click Add.
-
Complete the following steps to set up the Flare network and Songbird network:
-
In the Search network field, select
0xe(14) Flare Mainnet
, and verify that the displayed values match the values in this table:Network Setting Value The id of chain 0xe The name of chain Flare Mainnet Chain's currency name Flare Chain's currency symbol FLR Chain's currency decimals 18 RPC URLs https://flare-api.flare.network/ext/bc/C/rpc Icon URLs (leave blank) Block explorer URLs https://flare-explorer.flare.network -
Click Submit.
-
In the Search network field, select
0x13(19) Songbird Canary-Network
, and verify that the displayed values match the values in the following table.Tip

Click Wallet.
- Specify your password, and click Unlock.
- On the left side of the screen beside Balance, click the drop-down menu and select Flare or Songbird. Connection to the network is complete, and your balance of native tokens on the selected network is displayed.
With the previous steps completed, you now have access to the Flare network and Songbird Network and each network's native token, but you must complete an extra step for the wallet to recognize wrapped tokens, which are needed in a lot of operations.
Wrap and Delegate#
When you delegate your vote power to FTSO data providers, you not only support the Flare ecosystem but also earn monetary rewards.
Wrap and delegate your $FLR
or $SGB
tokens using the Flare Portal. First, wrap your tokens, and then delegate them.
Caution
When you connect your wallet to a dapp such as the Flare Portal, always double-check that the address shown in the dapp is the one you intend.
See the Caution box at the bottom of the Wallets page for more information.
