# Step 1 - Create Avalanche wallet

First of all, you have to click on [Avalanche Wallet: Store Your Avalanche Assets (avax.network)](https://wallet.avax.network/) which is the official link of Avalanche wallet website.&#x20;

Then, you will have to choose “**Create a new wallet**”

2\. Then, you will **generate** a **key phrase** which is the most important part of this tutorial.

Registering these 24 words is the **most important** step when creating a wallet. **Take your time and double check it**.

*Remember DO NOT share this to anyone and DO NOT save it as an image in your phone or PC.*

3\. Then, you have to confirm you safely wrote your key phrase and click on “**Access Wallet**”.

4\. The next step is a security step, Avalanche checks if you have registered your Mnemonic Phrase. You must **fill** in all the **blanks** with the correct words (example below with number 9).​

Anytime when accessing your wallet, this will be your first page. You will notice the X (exchange), C (contracts) and P (platform) letters on the top right corner. That’s the **three chains** which exist on Avalanche’s default subnet. Depending on the exchange you bought AVAX, you’ll need to sen*d* AVAX to this wallet via X-Chain or C-Chain address.
