In order to be able to delegate using Ledger you need to enable from MultiversX app on your Ledger the support for Contract Data -> Yes.

You can safely store your eGold by installing the MultiversX eGold app on your Ledger Nano S or Ledger Nano X device. We recommend using a hardware wallet for managing large amounts of eGold.

Before you begin

  1. Set up your Ledger device

  2. Download the Ledger Live application

  3. Upgrade your device with the latest firmware

Install the MultiversX eGold app on your Ledger

Teach your Ledger device to work with eGold by installing the MultiversX app on it.

  • Open the Ledger Live application

  • Click on the “Manager” section in the app

  • Connect and unlock your Ledger device

  • If prompted, allow the Manager on your device by pressing the two buttons

  • In the App catalog search for “MultiversX”

  • Click the “Install” button next to the MultiversX app

  • Your Ledger device will display “Processing” as the app installs.

Log into your MultiversX wallet using the Ledger device

  • Make sure your Ledger device is connected to your computer

  • Log into your Ledger device

  • Navigate to the MultiversX app & open it by pushing both buttons on your device

  • In your web browser navigate to https://wallet.multiversx.com/

  • Select "Ledger" from the Login options

  • A pop-up will notify you that your Ledger wants to connect. Allow it by clicking "Connect"

Your MultiversX Wallet will now open.

Overview of your eGold balance

After logging into your wallet, your eGold balances are immediately visible and displayed in easy-to-follow boxes.

  • Available: freely transferable eGold balance

  • Claimable rewards: delegation rewards that can be claimed

  • Delegated: Amount of eGold delegated towards a Staking Services provider

  • Total: the total amount of eGold associated with this address, sum of the above.

Send a transaction using the Ledger

In the MultiversX web wallet:

  • Click "Send"

  • Input the destination address & amount

  • Click Send

  • In the next screen click "Confirm & Check your Ledger"

On your Ledger device:

  • Review the receiver address, amount & fee on your Ledger device

  • Sign the transaction by pressing both buttons

Awesome, your transaction is now sent using your Ledger device.

Receiving eGold in your wallet

After logging into your wallet, as described above, you will be able to see your wallet address and share it with others so they can send you eGold.

Your address is immediately visible on the top part of the wallet, as "Address erd1... ". You can copy the address by pressing the copy button (two overlapping squares).

You can also click "Receive" on the left-hand side to see a QR code for the address, which can be scanned to reveal the public address.
