# How To Import An Existing Wallet Into Meteor Wallet

1. The first step depends if you are adding a wallet to Meteor or you're starting from scratch:<br>

   If you already have a wallet in Meteor and are simply adding a new one, then navigate to the hamburger menu in the top left and click ‘Add Wallet’.
2. To import a new wallet, you’ll first need to enter your password.
3. You then have two options to choose from to import your wallet into Meteor.
