Your Station Wallet

Wallet

Station ships with an in-built FIL wallet which you set up on installation. To avoid any confusion when you first start Station, you will not need to create a seed phrase, understand key-pairs or hash functions. When you create your Station wallet, you will auto-generate a seed phrase and key-pair so that you can start earning scheduled rewards within a few clicks.

As more modules run on Station, the team is open to supporting other tokens. By running the Spark module, you will start receiving payouts in FIL for your contributions. You can then send FIL from your Station wallet to another destination wallet address.

Accessing your Seed Phrase

The wallet seed phrase you create during onboarding is stored in a secure place, encrypted by your operating system. In order to back it up or move it to a different machine, here’s how to access your seed phrase.

💡

Your Station Wallet isn’t designed to hold large amounts of FIL, therefore we advise you to regularly transfer your funds to an appropriate destination wallet.
