# Onboarding Brahma Console

### Step-by-Step Guide to Onboarding

#### 1. **Sign Up with Your Email or Connect an Existing Wallet**

Getting started is easy! You have two options:

* **Existing Wallet**: Connect an existing wallet like MetaMask or Rabby. In this case, skip passkey setup in step 3.
* **Email Sign-Up**: Enter your email, and we’ll send a verification code to your inbox. Simply input the code, and Privy will create a wallet for you, tied to that email address.
  * You will be able to export the private key of this newly created wallet from your Console if you wish to.

#### 2. **Select Console**

Once you’ve signed in, choose **Console** on the left-hand side of the screen to start your journey.

#### 3. **Add a Passkey for Easy and Secure Access**

To further secure your account, you’ll be prompted to set up a **passkey**. This allows you to sign in and approve transactions using your device’s biometric authentication (like fingerprint or faceID), making your experience both safe and convenient.

* You can add multiple passkeys across different devices for more flexibility.
* Manage your passkeys easily by clicking on your email in the top-right corner of the screen.

#### 4. **Name Your Console**

Personalise your Console by giving it a name. Once you're ready, click on "Create". Your Console will automatically be deployed on **Arbitrum** and **Base** chains without any extra steps, and you’ll be taken straight into your new account.

* Automate tasks, such as swapping tokens or allocating for optimal yield, all from a unified interface.
