Install Use and Recover Your Mavryk Wallet Browser Extension Guide

Obtain the official add-on from the Chrome Web Store or Firefox Add-ons portal. Confirm the developer is listed as "Mavryk Foundation" or another verified entity before proceeding.

Adding the Tool to Your Navigator

Click the "Add to Browser" button on the store page. Grant the requested permissions when your navigator prompts you. A new icon will appear in your toolbar upon successful integration.

Generating a New Vault

Select the "Create New Vault" option. Formulate a robust passphrase exceeding 12 characters, storing it offline on physical media. Securely note the 12-word secret phrase displayed next, in the exact sequence.

Regaining Entry to an Existing Fund

Choose "Import via Secret Phrase." Key in your 12 or 24-word mnemonic phrase precisely, maintaining the original order and spacing. Establish a new strong password for this session.

Operational Security Post-Setup

Always verify the active network matches your intended chain (e.g., Mainnet). Before signing any transaction, double-check the recipient address and token amounts displayed by the add-on's interface.

Asset Management Practices

Never share your secret phrase or private keys; legitimate support will never ask for them.
Bookmark the add-on's interface to avoid phishing sites.
For substantial holdings, pair this tool with a hardware vault for transaction confirmation.


Your interface is now active. The toolbar icon serves as your direct portal to view balances, dispatch tokens, and engage with decentralized applications on the Mavryk chain.

Install, Use & Recover Mavryk Wallet Browser Extension Guide

Add the official plugin from the Chrome Web Store or Firefox Add-ons marketplace; verify the developer's name matches "Mavryk Dynamics" before proceeding. After the icon appears in your toolbar, click it to generate a new vault, securely note your twelve-word secret phrase on paper–never digitally–and confirm it. Fund your new public address (tz1...) with a small test transaction from an exchange to confirm everything works.


Accessing an existing account requires entering your seed phrase during the initial setup flow; the tool will then rebuild your portfolio and transaction history. For lost passwords, the twelve-word mnemonic is your sole restoration method, as the application does not store or reset access credentials. Always confirm you are on the genuine Mavryk portal before linking the add-on to any decentralized application to prevent phishing.

FAQ:
Is the Mavryk Wallet browser extension safe to use?

The safety of the Mavryk Wallet extension depends largely on user actions. The official extension from verified stores like the Chrome Web Store is legitimate software. Its code is open for review, which increases transparency. However, you must protect your seed phrase. Never share these 12 or 24 words with anyone, and never enter them on any website. Only interact with the extension directly. Bookmark genuine DeFi sites to avoid phishing links. The extension itself is a tool; your security habits determine its safety.

I lost my password. Can I still get my tokens back?

Yes, you can recover your wallet and tokens without the password. The password you set only protects access to the extension on that specific browser and device. It is not needed for recovery on a new device. To regain access, you must have your secret recovery phrase (seed phrase). Install Mavryk Wallet on Chrome the extension on a new browser, select "Import Wallet," and enter your seed phrase. This will restore your entire wallet, including all tokens and transaction history. Without the seed phrase, recovery is typically impossible.

What's the difference between the wallet password and the seed phrase?

These serve two completely different purposes. The wallet password is a local lock for the extension on your current computer. It stops someone with physical access to your machine from opening the wallet. The seed phrase (12 or 24 words) is the master key to your entire wallet on the blockchain. It generates all your account addresses and private keys. You use the password daily. You use the seed phrase only if you need to restore your wallet on a new device. Lose the password, you can restore with the seed phrase. Lose the seed phrase, you risk permanent loss of funds.

After installing, my balance shows zero. Are my tokens gone?

Not necessarily. A zero balance often means the extension is connected to a new, empty wallet address instead of your existing one. Check the account name or public address displayed in the extension. You might have created a new wallet by mistake. Use the "Import Wallet" feature with your seed phrase to load your correct account. Also, verify you are connected to the right network (e.g., Tezos Mainnet). Your tokens are stored on the blockchain, not in the extension, so they are safe as long as you have your recovery phrase.

Can I use the same wallet on my phone and browser at the same time?

Yes, you can access the same wallet from multiple devices simultaneously. The wallet is not "in" the extension or phone app; it exists on the blockchain. Software like the browser extension or a mobile app are just windows to view and manage it. To set this up, do not create a new wallet on your phone. Instead, use the "Import Existing Wallet" option in your mobile app (like Temple Wallet for Tezos) and enter your secret recovery phrase. The same accounts and funds will appear on both devices, and actions taken on one will reflect on the other.

I installed the Mavryk wallet extension but my browser isn't showing the icon. How do I find and open it?

Most browsers place extension icons in the top-right corner, near the address bar. Look for a small puzzle piece or extensions icon. Click it to see a list of your installed extensions, including Mavryk. You might need to pin it for easy access. Click the pin symbol next to "Mavryk Wallet" and its dedicated icon should appear on your toolbar. If you still can't see it, try completely closing and restarting your browser after installation.
