Tamga Wallet

Set up your wallet

On first launch a five-step setup greets you: PIN, Face ID / Touch ID, revocation code, identity verification and your first credential.

Topics in this guide

Before you start

  • Tamga Wallet is installed on your phone.
  • Your phone has a screen lock.

Steps

  1. Step 1: Tap Start

    The welcome screen lists the five setup steps: 6-digit PIN, Face ID / Touch ID, revocation code, identity verification and your first credential.

    First setup in five steps: choose a PIN, turn on Face ID / Touch ID, save your revocation code, verify your identity once, get your first credential.

  2. Step 2: Read the introduction or skip it

    Three short pages explain what the wallet does. Move on with Continue or tap Skip; at the end tap Create my wallet.

  3. Step 3: Choose a 6-digit PIN

    Enter 6 digits, then type the same PIN on “Enter the PIN again”. Repeated digits (like 111111), sequences (like 123456) and easy patterns are not accepted.

    Lock screen: the 6-digit PIN keypad and the Face ID button.

  4. Step 4: Turn on Face ID / Touch ID, or leave it for later

    Turn on Face ID / Touch ID or Not now. Details: Turn on Face ID / Touch ID.

  5. Step 5: Save your revocation code

    The code is shown only once; write it down and tap I saved it. Details: Save your revocation code.

  6. Step 6: Verify your identity

    Tap Start to do it now or Not now; you can start it later from the home screen. Details: Verify your identity.

Good to know

  • The PIN stays on this phone and never goes to a server. Tamga does not know your PIN and cannot recover it.
  • You can change it later in Settings → Security → Change PIN; your current PIN is asked first.
  • After 5 wrong PINs in a row the app makes you wait: 30 seconds, then 1 minute, 2 minutes… up to 1 hour. Closing and reopening the app does not reset the wait.
  • Identity verification and the revocation code, if skipped, wait for you as cards on the home screen.
