🔑Create your Passkey

Before you can trade on Defined, you will be prompted to create a Passkey on your device.

Passkeys are unique to the device you create them on, unless you are using a cloud service or password manager such as 1Password (recommended), which allows for seamless passkey usage across compatible devices. Please read our "Introduction to Passkeys" for more information. If you lose access to your Passkey/Passkey device and do not have a recovery email attached to your account, you will not have access to your funds unless you export/backup your private key.

Before being prompted to create a Passkey, you must navigate to the Defined trading panel. To do this, select any token to open its chart and information page.

By default, on the right side of the selected token's page you'll see a variety of options. Select the Buy or Sell button to open the trading panel:

On the trading panel, you'll fine a "Start trading now" button. Select this to start the Wallet and Passkey creation process, as well as (optionally) funding a wallet.

After selecting "Start trading now", you will be prompted to create a new wallet, name it, and hit save:

You can rename your wallet at any time.

After saving, you will then have to create your Passkey. The example below is how this will appear on a Windows device:

If you select "Use another device" you will have the option to save your Passkey in a number of ways including to mobile devices and security keys like YubiKey. Choose the right option for you.

For more information on creating Passkeys with Windows, 1Password, Apple, and Android, please see our examples in the following pages and be sure to consult our Device Guide. As there are many options for creating and storing Passkeys, this is not an exhaustive list of options. Please consult your specific device's support page for Passkeys for more information on creating, storing, and using Passkeys.
