Before Adding a Custom Token, Be Aware of the Risks

Anyone can create a token, including fake or malicious versions of legitimate tokens. Adding custom tokens carries certain risks, which may include:

• Scams
• Malicious or fraudulent tokens that impersonate credible tokens
• Inaccurate token information
• Price volatility and instability
• Ponzi schemes
• Frozen tokens that become unusable
• Tokens with potential security threats, such as those that could steal funds from your wallet

Note:
This list highlights only some risks; others may emerge over time. Always perform thorough research before adding or interacting with any custom token.

Adding a Custom Token with the Trust Wallet Mobile App

1. From the main screen, tap the token icon in the top right (or scroll to the bottom of your asset balance and tap Manage crypto).
2. Tap the + icon in the top right.
3. Select the Network of the token.
4. Enter the contract address of the token. It’s best practice to paste it in or use the camera scan feature.
5. Other token details like Name, Symbol, and Decimals should auto-populate. If not, verify the contract address and manually input the information as needed.
6. Tap Import to complete the addition.

Adding a Custom Token with the Trust Wallet Browser Extension

1. On the main screen, scroll to the bottom of your asset balance and select Manage crypto.
2. Tap the + icon in the top right.
3. Choose the correct Network.
4. Paste in the contract address. If the token information populates automatically, simply click Add token.
   
   
   

Note:
If the token does not populate automatically after entering the contract address, proceed as follows:

• Click Add token manually.
• Complete the required fields, including Token Type, Name, Symbol, and Decimals.
• Click Add token to finalize.
