What is Zerion?
Zerion is a self-custody wallet built around a portfolio view that shows tokens and DeFi positions across EVM networks and Solana.
How Zerion works
Zerion is a self-custody wallet for iOS, Android and a browser extension, plus a web app at app.zerion.io that tracks any address without installing anything.
When you create a wallet you choose an Ethereum wallet, a Solana wallet or both, and Zerion generates a 12-word recovery phrase. Zerion states it does not hold or have access to your private keys, so it cannot move funds without your signature.
Network support comes in two tiers. Full support covers Solana, Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon, BNB Chain, Tron, Monad, HyperEVM and nearly 30 other networks. Lite support networks such as Cronos zkEVM, Metis, Ronin, Sei and Taiko show balances and history for Zerion transactions only, with no in-app swaps, bridging or NFTs. Any other EVM chain can be added as a custom network, which shows the native balance but not tokens or history.
How to start with Zerion
- Install the app or extension, tap Create New Wallet and set a 6-digit passcode (mobile) or a password (extension).
- Back up the recovery phrase by writing it down, and on mobile you can also store an encrypted copy in iCloud or Google Drive under a separate password that Zerion, Apple and Google cannot recover.
- There is no account or KYC to open the wallet itself.
- Premium is bought on-chain at app.zerion.io/premium-setup/purchase from a standard EOA wallet; smart contract wallets cannot pay for it, and Premium does not yet cover Solana wallets.
Zerion fees and limits
- In-app swaps and bridges carry a 0.67% Zerion service fee.
- Premium, a 12-month plan that does not auto-renew, lowers that fee to 0.25% and adds profit and loss tracking and CSV export of history across 14 networks.
Sending and receiving crypto carries no Zerion fee, only network gas, which you can set to Fast, Medium or Custom. Holders of the Zerion Gold DNA NFT pay no service fee. When a trade routes through an external DEX or AMM, that venue's own fee is added to the quote, and Zerion does not collect it.
Risks to know before using Zerion
- Your funds depend on the recovery phrase and, if you use it, the cloud backup password: lose both and Zerion cannot restore the wallet.
- Collected swap fees sit in multisig wallets that Zerion names publicly, one for Avalanche and Optimism and one for all other networks.
- On Lite support networks, transactions sent from other wallets do not appear in Zerion, so the history screen can look incomplete even though balances are correct.
