Prepare your wallet

For the development and testing purposes, you will need the Algorand wallet. See the list of available Algorand wallets here; you can choose from the mobile, browser-based or browser extension wallets.

Opt in to DeCash tokens

tip

This guide is only applicable to regular Algorand wallets. When using DeCash API and delegated wallets, the opt-in procedure is handled for you by DeCash API. Read more in the API section.

In order to receive DeCash tokens to your newly created wallet, you need to opt them in.

The following guide will guide you through the Algorand Wallet. The procedure in other wallets should be very similar.

1. Get some Algo

See the Getting Algo section to get some Algo. You need to have some Algo on your wallet to perform the opt-in transaction in Algorand.

2. Start adding a new asset

Make sure you have your wallet set to use the correct network. On the screenshots below, the test Algorand network is used. See how to connect Algorand Wallet to the test network here.

3. Find DeCash token you need

Using this list of DeCash tokens, pick the asset ID of the token you need. In the example below, we add DeCash EURD token, which has asset ID 51987793.

4. Approve the opt-in transaction

Now click on the asset you're trying to opt in to in your Algorand Wallet and approve the transaction.

Confirm adding DeCash EURD token

Shortly, you will have DeCash token listed in the list of tokens you own.

Confirm adding DeCash EURD token

From now on, you can start transacting in DeCash EURD token.
