Restore your Begin ID
Restore your Begin ID
When you import your wallet into a new device, your Begin ID is automatically recognized based on your wallet address. Reclaiming your identity is simple and secure.
🔄 What Happens When You Restore?
As soon as your wallet is imported, the Begin app checks for any registered Begin ID linked to that address. If found, a banner appears on your home screen to guide you through the final steps.
👣 Steps to Restore Your Begin ID
-
Tap the Banner
A message will appear on the home screen saying your Begin ID is available. Tap the banner to start the process. -
Tap Continue
Review the linked Begin ID details and confirm you'd like to restore it. -
Sign to Confirm
You’ll be prompted to sign a message or transaction to prove wallet ownership and complete the restoration.
✅ That’s it!
Your Begin ID is now fully restored and active on your new device — including your:
- Username (e.g.,
@jamie) - Avatar
- Public profile:
https://jamie.bgin.id
You can now continue using it across Begin Wallet and compatible dApps.
Troubleshooting Tip
