Getting started

Giveth.io is a platform where you can easily support projects both with cryptocurrency and fiat that you ❤️. Or create your own project and accept funding from a worldwide audience.

Sign in​

In the top right corner you will see the sign in button. Currently you can sign in via two methods, either by Tor.us, Metamask, Wallet Connect or Gnosis Safe. You must choose!

Sign in with Ethereum​

Click the button and choose which wallet you would like to connect with (Metamask, WalletConnect, Torus or Gnosis Safe). Follow your wallet instructions below.

Tor.us Sign in​

Click on the Torus under the sign in drop down menu. You will be given several options of different platforms you can sign in with (e.g., Google, Linkedin, Twitter, Discord, etc.) You can also use the simple email option, which will send you a one-time use code to your email. Follow the Torus prompt and you should find your way in easily.

Metamask Sign in​

If you're unfamiliar with Metamask or don't already have a wallet, head on over to (https://metamask.io/), and get yourself set up with one! Once your wallet is setup, make sure your Metamask browser extension is enabled and up to date. Click the 'Metamask' option under the sign in drop down menu. You should then be prompted by the Metamask pop up to confirm your signature, and then you should be plugged in and good to go!

Wallet Connect​

Click on the Wallet Connect icon and scan the QR code with a Wallet Connect compatible wallet or copy to your clipboard. Alternatively, click the desktop tab and choose your preferred wallet.

Gnosis Safe Sign in​

To sign in with Gnosis you must access Giveth from your Gnosis safe. Click Gnosis safe and follow the prompts.
