The latest Magic Eden app makes adding new accounts simpler and more secure, offering several flexible options. This guide will take you through each method step by step.
How to add a new account to your Magic Eden app
Access the Account menu
Open your Magic Eden app and navigate to the Portfolio page.
Click the Account icon on the top left-hand corner to open the Accounts page.
Click the "Add Account" button at the bottom of the app.
Select the account type
After clicking "Add Account", a popup will ask you to select which account type you wish to add. The Magic Eden app offers three options:
Add a software account
Adding a "Software Account" generates a new set of addresses on an existing, already imported recovery phrase.
If you already have multiple recovery phrases imported, you will need to select which recovery phrase the new account will belong to.
Enter a portfolio name (account name) and click the "Create" button.
Your new account will appear in the accounts menu under the selected recovery phrase.
Import Recovery Phrase
This option allows you to add accounts from a new recovery phrase.
You will be directed to a screen where you can enter or paste your 12-word or 24-word recovery phrase.
Please see this article for a detailed walk through on how to import a recovery phrase.
Import Private Key
This allows you to import addresses from a private key. You will be prompted to select the chain your address exists on and paste your private key.
