An ONCHAIN® Account is your personal smart account on the ONCHAIN® Protocol Network. It’s where your purchase history, embedded wallet, and delivery preferences all live. Creating an account is free and takes only a moment.


What your ONCHAIN® Account includes

An embedded wallet (ready instantly)

When you sign up, an embedded wallet is created for you automatically. This lets you complete purchases immediately—no wallet setup or extensions required.

Your transaction history

Every completed purchase appears inside your account, along with order IDs, timestamps, network details, and delivery addresses.

Your address book

You can add external wallet addresses (e.g., MetaMask, Trust Wallet, hardware wallets) and choose where each purchase is delivered.


What an ONCHAIN® Account is not

  • It is not an exchange account.

  • It does not hold funds in custody.

  • It is not tied to a specific wallet—your embedded wallet and your external wallets all work with it.

Your account simply gives you the place to manage your activity and receive assets across the wallets you choose.


Why you need an ONCHAIN® Account

  • To buy assets using ONCHAIN®

  • To receive your purchases on-chain

  • To track your orders and receipts

  • To switch between wallets or add new addresses

  • To complete KYC if required for your first qualified purchase
