Whether you are just getting started with Sui or are an existing user exploring new wallet options, it's important to find a wallet that fits your needs. Wallets are your gateway to Sui, allowing you to not only store, send, and receive assets, but also interact with apps built on Sui.
While there is a spectrum of wallet options available on Sui, users who want to experience Sui to the fullest will likely prefer a non-custodial wallet for their day-to-day usage, as these wallets balance functionality while remaining simple to use.
Using a non-custodial wallet oftentimes requires the user to manage their private keys—essentially the keys to the safe. It is important to follow best practices for securing your wallet and it’s often recommended to use a hardware device, such as a Ledger product, to further secure your wallet.
Here’s a look at the wallets most commonly used in the Sui ecosystem, listed in no particular order:
Surf Wallet
Surf Wallet made waves as the first mobile wallet on Sui to implement zkLogin, enabling seamless onboarding with Web2 credentials. As one of the earliest mobile wallet options, Surf continues to lead in adopting new Sui technologies. Surf is available as a mobile app on iOS and Android as well as a browser extension.
OKX Wallet
OKX Wallet is one of the most comprehensive multichain wallets available on Sui. Accessible across browser extension, mobile app, desktop app (Mac/PC), and even through a Telegram integration, OKX Wallet is a versatile option allowing users to interact with assets in a unique way. With built-in DeFi access and cross-chain compatibility, OKX Wallet is designed for users who want a single wallet to explore not just Sui, but multiple ecosystems.

Slush
Slush is the official wallet developed by Mysten Labs, offering advanced features for power users wrapped in a uniquely user-friendly experience. Slush supports the creation of both passphrase-based accounts and social login-based accounts, leveraging providers such as Google via zkLogin. An extremely powerful feature of Slush is its ability to send assets by generating and sharing a simple link that the recipient simply clicks to claim. Slush Links can be used to transfer multiple types of assets at once. A built-in Sui Testnet faucet adds convenience for users interacting with apps on Sui Testnet as well. Slush is available as a browser extension, a web app, or through iOS and Android apps.
Nightly
Nightly is a multichain wallet that offers a unique Auto-Confirm feature. Nightly’s Auto-Confirm allows users to set intervals for automatic confirmations ranging from 15 minutes to infinite duration, removing the need for manual confirmations during the set period. This feature is restricted to trusted apps, such as Aftermath and Suilend, enhancing the user experience while encouraging security. Nightly is available as both a browser extension and mobile app on iOS and Android.
