Connect your wallet to a Website/dApp

A step by step guide

With Talisman you are able to connect to dApps across the EVM and Substrate ecosystem. Talisman can be used with all dApps that support EVM wallets.

In the case that the dApp does not support a multi-wallet connector like RainbowKit or WalletConnect, you can connect to a dApp by clicking on the Metamask connector. If this is the case and you have Metamask installed together with Talisman, you can temporarily disable Metamask so that the connections don't interfere with each other.

Here is a guide walking you through connecting your Talisman wallet to a dApp:

  1. Go to the Website/dApp and click “Connect”. In this case, we are using Opensea as an example.

  1. Select Talisman from the list of supported wallets.

  1. A popup will prompt you to choose a Talisman account. Select a Talisman account and click Connect 1.

  1. In the case of Opensea, you’ll be prompted to approve a sign request showing you accept their term & condition and privacy policy.

  1. Now the Talisman wallet is connected, which can be seen on the top left corner.

  1. To connect a different account to the dApp, from Talisman popup view, click on the network connector icon outlined in red in the image below.

  1. Select the account you want to switch to, and the dapp will connect to the new account.

Note: Certain networks on Polkadot have implemented EVM accounts (i.e. Moonbeam). You can connect to these accounts by enabling them here. (It is off by default).

  1. In this example of connecting our Talisman wallet to Opensea, we’re connected to two wallets. By clicking “link wallet wallet to this account”, both wallets to one account. You can choose to keep your wallets on separate accounts on Opensea by clicking “switch accounts” instead.

You will be prompted to approve a sign request from your Talisman wallet.

You can then change/switch accounts directly from the Website/dApp interface by clicking your profile icon in the top left corner. .

Most dApps behave this way. Choose in the Talisman extension which accounts you want to connect to the site and then specify via the dApp menu which of those accounts you want to use.

9. If you want to reset your settings for a dApp you can do so via the Talisman setting “Connected Sites”. Adjust your connected accounts or even choose Forget Site to give it a fresh start.
