Recover with the DCENT R3covery Card

If your DCENT S Card Wallet is lost or damaged, or the card was reset due to failed PIN attempts, you can recover your assets using the information you backed up.

Recover with the R3covery Card

warning

Recovery with the R3covery Card is only possible onto a newly purchased or reset (empty) DCENT S Card Wallet. You cannot recover onto a DCENT S Card that is already in use (contains another wallet).

1) In the DCENT mobile app, open the "Settings" tab, tap the More (⋮) > "R3covery" > "Recover Card" on the DCENT S card, then tap "Recover with R3covery card".

2) Prepare the DCENT R3covery Card and a newly purchased or reset (empty) DCENT S Card, then tap "Get started".

To recover onto a DCENT S Card that is already in use, first perform a Factory Reset Card on it to make it empty.

3) Enter the existing R3covery Card PIN you set during backup.

4) Tap the R3covery Card to the back of your phone to load the private key stored on it.

5) Enter a new DCENT S PIN to set on the DCENT S Card Wallet being recovered.

6) Enter the same DCENT S PIN once more to confirm.

If you forget your DCENT S PIN, you cannot send coins. For security, PIN entry is allowed up to 10 times; entering it incorrectly 10 or more times may reset the card, so be sure to remember the PIN you set.

If you have forgotten your R3covery Card PIN or lost the R3covery Card itself, you can recover your assets using the mnemonic code you recorded during backup.

1) In the DCENT mobile app, open the "Settings" tab, tap the More (⋮) > "R3covery" > "Recover Card" on the DCENT S card, then tap "Recover with recovery phrase".

To recover onto a DCENT S Card that is already in use, first perform a Factory Reset Card on it to make it empty.
