Onboarding with MMI

To use MMI with your Hex Safe v2 account, you must first sign up and onboard with MetaMask Institutional. If you’ve yet to do so, please reach out to the Hex Trust Customer Support Team at support@hextrust.com for assistance.

 

Installing the MMI browser extension

Make sure that any other MetaMask extensions you have installed are disabled

  1. Click the Extension button on your Chrome browser and click "MetaMask Institutional".

  2. Click the checkbox ‘I agree to MetaMask’s Terms of use’.

  3. Choose either "Create a new wallet" or "Import an existing wallet".

    1. Note: Whichever option you choose, you will need to complete the entire flow  until you see the designated screen.

  4. Head back to your Hex Safe v2 Web Platform to Connect your Hex Safe v2 account to the MMI extension.
