Fuse is your personal finance app to save, trade, and pay with crypto.
This quickstart guide covers additional details you need to know to begin your onchain journey with Fuse safely and efficiently.
Download Fuse
Get started by downloading Fuse from the iOS App Store. While Fuse works on iPads, we recommend using the app on an iPhone for the best experience.
Complete Onboarding
When you first set up a Fuse wallet, it creates two keys:
Device Key (stored on your iPhone)
2FA Key (stored in iCloud)
You only need access to one of these keys to make transactions and access your Fuse wallet. However, we recommend that you complete onboarding by adding one or more Recovery Keys to your Fuse wallet.
Fuse replaces vulnerable seed phrases with Recovery Keys so that you can securely recover your wallet if you ever lose access. Once you add your first Recovery Key, your wallet's security model changes to require two keys to complete a transaction, adding multifactor authentication to your Fuse wallet for an extra layer of security.

Onramp Assets
Fuse supports multiple ways to onramp onchain assets.
Virtual US bank accounts
Powered by Bridge, you can create a virtual US bank account to receive USD via traditional bank transfers. These funds are automatically converted to USDC and deposited into your Fuse wallet for a low 0.1% conversion fee.
Sphere
With Sphere, you can easily convert fiat to stablecoins—which are automatically transferred to your Fuse wallet, creating a seamless bridge between traditional banking systems and the onchain economy.
Solana wallets & centralized exchanges
You can send Solana assets (SPL Tokens) from wallets such as Phantom, Solflare, or Backpack; or centralized exchanges such as Binance, Coinbase, or Kraken to your Fuse wallet. Note that some centralized exchanges may not recognize Fuse wallet addresses because Fuse is a smart wallet—this differs depending on the region and jurisdiction. If you encounter any issues, please reach out for support.
Offramp Assets
Fuse also provides multiple convenient options for offramping your onchain assets.
Solana wallets & centralized exchanges
Follow the steps outlined above in reverse order to transfer onchain assets back to other Solana wallets or centralized exchanges.
Fuse Off-Ramp
Fuse Off-Ramp enables you to effortlessly convert USDC from your Fuse wallet into USD, which is then transferred directly to your bank account.
Sphere
Use Sphere to seamlessly exchange stablecoins from your Fuse wallet into fiat, which is then automatically deposited to your bank account.
To successfully offboard, follow these steps:
Complete the setup process
Link your bank account to generate a unique wallet address
Send USDC to this wallet address, where it is automatically converted to USD or EUR and deposited into your bank account
Manage Assets
Fuse enables you to do more than just store and move onchain assets.
You can also:
Stake: Earn passive income with fuseSOL while contributing to Solana’s security
Grow: Generate yield on stablecoins using Fuse Earn
Trade: Swap tokens with zero fees using our Jupiter integration, Solana’s leading DEX aggregator
Risk Minimization
Fuse leverages robust security features to safeguard your onchain assets:
Key distribution: By default, your Device Key is tied to your iPhone, and your 2FA Key is stored in iCloud. To further enhance security, upgrade your 2FA Key from iCloud to a Ledger after setting up the Fuse app. You can then create a Spending Limit to enable seamless transactions that don’t require your 2FA Key.
Key management: Add multiple Recovery Keys using different hardware wallets (e.g. Trezor and Keystone) to diversify vendor risk.
Wallet diversity: Fuse is the most secure wallet for your Solana assets, but we recommend never keeping all your funds in a single place. Secure a portion of your funds in a hardware wallet or other self-custody solution to ensure wallet diversity.
Advanced Security
Fuse offers multiple recovery options to guarantee uninterrupted access to your onchain assets, providing peace of mind in case of unexpected circumstances.
