Connect Your Phantom Wallet

SoyCap.io runs on the Solana blockchain, ensuring direct, fast, secure, and low-cost transactions between you and your affiliates. To create and manage affiliate campaigns (and other critical campaign operations like USDC deposit/withdrawal), you’ll need a Solana wallet with a positive SOL balance. For the best experience, we recommend using Phantom Wallet.

• To install and start using Phantom, check out this Phantom Quick Start guide.

Once your have your wallet up and running you will need to get some SOL (and USDC to make affiliate payouts) to perform common campaigns operations. Refer to these articles for more information on:

• How to buy USD Coind (USDC) using Phantom

Note

In SoyCap.io’s blockchain-based, non-custodial setup, all actions—such as creating campaigns, depositing or withdrawing funds, registering conversions and distributing rewards — require direct authorization from the merchant owner’s wallet.

This approach differs significantly from traditional custodial solutions, like credit card systems, where a third-party service provider can typically store or manage access credentials and initiate transactions and actions on behalf of the owner.

Connect Phantom Wallet to SoyCap.io

• Click on the Phantom Wallet icon in your browser’s toolbar.
• Enter your password to unlock your wallet if it’s locked.
• Look for a “Connect Wallet” or similar button on the SoyCap.io website. It can be found in the top-right corner of the Dashboard page.
• Click on the “Connect Wallet” button, and you will see a list of supported wallets. Choose “Phantom Wallet” from the options.
• A Phantom Wallet popup will appear asking for your permission to connect to the SoyCap.io. Review the details and click “Connect” to approve.
• After approving the connection, your wallet should now be connected to the SoyCap.io. You can confirm this by checking the Phantom Wallet extension, where you should see the SoyCap.io listed under connected sites. The connect button will also likely show a portion of your wallet address.

Wallets Management

Note

As a best security practice we recommended to create a separate Solana wallet for each merchant.

There are some considerations to keep in mind when using Solana wallets with SoyCap.io:

• Avoid using your personal, investment or business wallets for running SoyCap.io affiliate campaigns.
• Always create a dedicated wallet for each merchant, maintaining only the required SOL and USDC balance to operate campaigns efficiently and securely.
• You may opt to use separate wallets for each campaign, particularly if campaigns are managed by different individuals with distinct wallets. However, this approach can introduce additional complexity to keypair management during integration.
