Petra Aptos Wallet Secure Browser Extension for Chrome Firefox Brave Kiwi

Manage your Aptos network assets directly within your browser. This tool integrates with four major Chromium-based navigators and Mozilla's platform.


Transaction fees are consistently below $0.01. Execute swaps and transfers in under two seconds.


Your private keys remain exclusively on your device. The code is publicly available for audit. It never requests your seed phrase.


Connect to over 25 decentralized applications instantly. Track staking rewards, NFT collections, and token balances from a single, streamlined interface.


Setup requires approximately 45 seconds. Create a new vault or import an existing one using a 12-word mnemonic. The process is non-custodial by design.

Installing the Petra Extension on Your Browser in Under 2 Minutes

Open your browser's official extension store.


Enter the tool's name in the search bar and select the correct result, verified by the developer.


Click the Add to Browser button. A confirmation dialog will appear; approve it to begin the installation.


Wait for the download to finish. An icon will appear in your toolbar.


Click the new icon to activate the setup. Create a new vault or import an existing one following the on-screen instructions.


Save your secret recovery phrase offline. Confirm it in the next step to finalize configuration.


The interface will load, confirming setup is complete and the add-on is ready for use.

How to Set Up and Securely Back Up Your New Aptos Account

Install the browser extension from its official distribution platform. Create a new vault and establish a strong password exceeding 12 characters, combining uppercase letters, numbers, and symbols.


During generation, the interface will present a 12-word or 24-word secret recovery phrase.
Record this phrase manually on durable, non-digital media like steel plates or specialized paper.
Never store this phrase digitally–avoid photos, cloud notes, or text files.


Verify the phrase correctly by selecting the words in the exact order presented. Enable all available security features within the extension's settings:


Set a distinct transaction authorization password.
Activate automatic session locking after a period of inactivity.
Reject connection requests from unrecognized applications.


Create multiple physical copies of your recovery phrase. Store each copy in a separate, secure location such as a safe or a safety deposit box. Inform a trusted individual about the location of one backup without disclosing the phrase itself.


Test the restoration process before depositing significant assets. Uninstall the extension, reinstall it, and use your recorded phrase to recover access. Confirm your public address matches the original before proceeding.

Sending, Receiving, and Swapping APT Tokens Directly In-Browser

Initiate a transfer by clicking the 'Send' button; paste the recipient's full address and double-check the first and last six characters. Network fees typically cost 0.001 APT, so maintain a balance above this threshold.


Generate a deposit address using the 'Receive' function. Share this QR code for error-free mobile transactions. Each address is unique to your extension's account and remains static for repeated use.


Access the integrated exchange via the 'Swap' tab. Confirm the quoted rate displays the expected output amount before signing. Slippage tolerance can be adjusted between 0.5% and 5% depending on market volatility.


Review every transaction's details in the preview pane, especially the network fee and total, before final approval. Signed operations broadcast to the chain and appear in your activity log within 15 seconds.


Store a small amount for frequent use and keep the majority in a disconnected vault. Transaction history and token balances automatically sync with the blockchain each time the extension is opened.

Connecting Your Petra Wallet to Aptos dApps and NFT Marketplaces

Click the extension icon in your browser's toolbar and ensure you are on the correct network; most platforms require the Mainnet.


Visit a supported application and locate its "Connect" button, typically found in the site's header. A modal window will appear listing compatible browser extensions.


Select the interface for your installed browser extension from the list. The application will request permission to view your public address.


Authorize the connection request within the extension's pop-up interface. You only need to approve this once per application.


Verify the connected address shown on the platform matches yours. For transactions, the extension will prompt you to review and confirm each action separately.


Disconnect your session using the application's interface when finished; this revokes access but keeps your assets secured within your vault.

Managing Your Transaction History and Network Preferences

Export your transaction log monthly as a CSV file for personal accounting; the option is located under 'Activity' in the main menu.


Tag outgoing transfers with custom labels like 'Vendor Payment' or 'Staking Reward' directly from the transaction details view.


Set the default network fee priority to 'Medium' for routine transfers, reducing costs by an average of 40% compared to 'High' without significant delay.


Create a custom RPC endpoint for faster broadcast times; reliable public endpoints include chains.lol and nodereal.io.


Filter your history by date, asset type, or contact address to isolate specific actions from the last 90 days.


Adjust the native token display unit from the smallest denomination to whole coins within the settings panel to simplify balance checks.


Enable automatic nonce calculation for all transactions to prevent network errors and failed submissions.


Review pending transactions hourly during high network congestion; manually increase their gas price or cancel them to free funds.


Archive completed transaction records quarterly to maintain application performance and keep the interface responsive.

Q&A:
Does this wallet work with the Aptos blockchain only, or can I use it for other networks like Solana or Ethereum?

This wallet is built specifically for the Aptos blockchain. It is designed to store, send, receive, and manage APT tokens and other assets on the Aptos network. It will not work for blockchains like Ethereum, Solana, or Polygon. You would need a separate wallet, like MetaMask for Ethereum or Phantom for Solana, to interact with those networks.

I use Kiwi browser. Is the installation process any different for Kiwi compared to Chrome?

No, the installation is the same. Since Kiwi is based on Chromium, you can install the Petra wallet directly from the Chrome Web Store. Just visit the store using your Kiwi browser, find the Petra extension, and click "Add to Chrome." The installation steps will be identical.

How do I recover my wallet if I get a new computer or reinstall my browser?

You need your 12-word secret recovery phrase. When you first set up Petra, it shows you this phrase. You must write it down and keep it safe. If you need to restore your wallet on a new device, install the Petra extension, choose "Import Existing Wallet," and enter your 12-word phrase. Never share this phrase with anyone.

Can I connect Petra to mobile dApps, or is it just for desktop browsing?

Petra is a browser extension for desktop browsers like Chrome and Brave. You cannot use it directly on a mobile phone's browser. For mobile use, you would need a separate mobile wallet app that supports Aptos. However, some desktop dApps you access with Petra might have mobile-optimized websites, but you'd need to connect with a compatible mobile wallet instead.

Is it free to send APT tokens using this wallet?

Yes, the Petra Wallet setup wallet itself is free to download and use. However, sending transactions on the Aptos network requires a small fee in APT, called a gas fee. This fee is paid to the network, not to the wallet developers. The wallet will show you the estimated gas fee before you confirm any transaction.

Does this wallet work with the Kiwi browser on Android?

Yes, the Petra wallet extension is fully compatible with the Kiwi browser on Android. Since Kiwi supports desktop Chrome extensions, you can install Petra directly from the Chrome Web Store. The functionality is identical to using it on a desktop version of Chrome or Brave.
