Adding an Ethereum Wallet

How to add and sync your Ethereum wallet with Recap

Adding Ethereum wallets to Recap is simple. We support any Ethereum Mainnet wallet including Metamask, Trezor, Ledger, Exodus, Electrum, Trust, Mist, Coinbase wallet and any other Ethereum wallet providers.

Step 1 - Get your public wallet address

All Ethereum wallets have a public address - the process for getting this address will be different depending on the wallet provider that you are using. It's usually simple to copy the address from the wallet - we've used Metamask as an example below:

Step 2 - Paste your address into Recap

And that's it! We'll automatically collect your transaction data and calculate your taxes.

Important: At the moment our Ethereum integration does not pull data from Beacon Chain. So, for now, you will need to manually import data relating to staking.

You can do so by adding transactions manually from the activity screen or by using a custom account.

Step 3 - Verify your wallet data

  1. Check Transactions:

    • After syncing, Recap begins importing your wallet transactions. Check the dashboard to ensure everything looks correct.

  2. Compare Balances:

    • Verify that the Ethereum balance Recap shows matches the balance in your actual wallet.

  3. Automatic Updates:

    • Recap automatically detects new transactions.

    • If you added only a single address, you may need to add more if you use multiple addresses to receive funds.


Troubleshooting Tips

  1. Double-check Your Address: Typos can cause missed transactions or import errors.

  2. No Transactions?: Confirm you’re using an address that has actually been used.
