How to add/delete custom tokens to my Torus Wallet?

Automatically display tokens


  1. Login to your Torus Wallet at https://app.tor.us


  1. On the Home tab, click the Show all Tokens button to display all the tokens in your wallet. Please ensure to select the right blockchain network in your Torus wallet under Settings > Network to display the relevant tokens.



The Show all Tokens feature will display only those tokens which have a minimum balance greater than 0(if you have 0 balance of any token, it won't display) and is dependent on the network over which you receive tokens from another wallet or exchange provider into Torus Wallet. For Example: You send 2 DAI coins and 100 USDC In your Torus Wallet over the Main Ethereum Network from another wallet or exchange provider, you will need to first go to Settings and select Main Ethereum Network then click the Show all Tokens button. You will now see the new tokens displaying on the page as seen below:
