# Wallet Setup

## You can set up wallets in two ways:

* Create a wallet in Banana Gun.
* Import an existing wallet using a private key.

In addition to creating wallets for regular trading, you can set up transfer wallets for situations where the bot must move your tokens to prevent blacklisting.

**Warning:** Banana Gun only shows your private key once. Make sure you save it before deleting the message.

Sharing your private key is the same as handing over your wallet and all your funds. Never share it with anyone!
