Backup your wallet
IMPORTANT – Please ensure you backup your Qoin Wallet App and record your ‘Seed Phrase’ and store it in a secure place. The Qoin Wallet App has a 3-Stage secure backup process. It is IMPORTANT to backup your Wallet App and write down your unique 12 word ‘Seed Phrase’.
***Your 12 word seed phrase MUST be written down and stored in a safe offline place and in at least three different places. If you do not store your seed phrase and you lose or change mobile device, you have the potential to lose the Qoin you already have***
