Step 1: Log in to your CoverCrypto account, and click the β€˜+ Add crypto account’ button on the Connections page

Step 2: Click on Ledger inside the Wallets section of the connection widget, and you are presented with three different options for connecting to Ledger (image 3 here):

Step 3: Depending on which of the options apply to you, click on the line to expand it and follow the instructions. Please see the 3 sub-sections below related to each option:


A) I have Ledger Live app on this device

Step 1: Click on 'Open Ledger Live' within the connection widget, and then click the 'Open Ledger Live' button on this white pop-up:

Step 2: The Ledger Live application will then automatically open. From here, click on 'Select Account'

Select the blockchain account you want to connect. You can search for the blockchain via the search bar, or scroll down the list.

Here we selected an Ethereum account. Either click on your existing account or create a new account (via 'Add account')

After clicking on your account, the connection will be confirmed. As per the image below, please return back to your CoverCrypto account browser:

This account is now connected, and protected by CoverCrypto!

Step 2: From here, the steps are the same in the process above ('A) I have Ledger Live app on this device'), but on your mobile:

πŸ€“ FYI

Make sure to ensure your Ledger Live mobile app is fully synced with your Ledger Live desktop app to ensure all of your assets and accounts are listed. You can learn more about how to do this from Ledger here.

If you are on a mobile device but have Ledger Live app installed on your computer, copy the connection URI and enter it in your computer's browser address bar to open the Ledger Live app there.

  • Step 1: Click on the 'Copy Connection URI' button and paste it into the computer device which you have the Ledger Live app installed on.

  • Step 2: Follow the same instructions as 'A) I have Ledger Live app on this device' from Step 2 onwards.
