How to Add Custom Tokens to Tangem App

If you cannot find the token you need in the Manage Tokens section, you can manually add it to your wallet. This feature is currently available for the following networks: 

 

Arbitrum, Areon, Aurora, Avalanche C-Chain, BNB Beacon Chain, BNB Smart Chain, Base, Blast, Cardano, Cronos, Cyber, Decimal Smart Chain, DisChain (Ethereum Fair), Ethereum, Ethereum Classic, Ethereum PoW, Fantom Opera, Flare, Hedera, Gnosis Chain, Kava EVM, Manta Pacific, Mantle, Moonbeam, Moonriver, OctaSpace, Optimistic Ethereum, PLAYA3ULL GAMES, Polygon, Polygon zkEVM, PulseChain, RSK, Shibarium, Solana, Telos, Tron, VeChain, XDC Network, and zkSync Era. 

If the network or token you require is not listed in the Manage Tokens section or the provided list, it means that the wallet does not currently support it. You will not be able to transfer it to your wallet.

 

To add a custom token, you'll need the following information:

  1. The Token’s network.
  2. The address of the token smart contract. You can find this address on coinmarketcap.com, coinecko.com, or the corresponding blockchain explorer.
  3. The token’s name (for example, Bitcoin) and symbol (for example, BTC).
  4. The number of decimal places (Decimals). This parameter determines where one token can be split for operations. Decimals can be found in the token card in the corresponding blockchain explorer.
  5. Derivation according to BIP44. For this operation, “Default” is selected.

For example, let's add a custom token to the Tangem App using Protector Roge (Ethereum network):

1. Open your Tangem Wallet and tap the three dots in the upper-right corner.

If the token is in the Tangem database, The Network, Name, Token symbol, and Decimals will be filled in automatically. Or else, you must enter them manually.

10. In the "BIP44 coin type" field (the transfer path, the currency, and the wallet identifier), select the network value. In our case it is Default.
