We announced Wallet Analytics this week, and it has been great to see how fast wallet partners came back to us. Teams are already digging into the data, some to understand their users better, others to plan campaigns that drive more usage and volume through WalletConnect.
So here is the fuller version: why we built it, what is in it today, and how we want to grow it with you.
Why we built Wallet Analytics
We built the network, which means we see it at a level no single participant does. Years of connections, across 700+ wallets and 80,000+ apps, all of it flowing through infrastructure we run. That is a lot of data sitting on our side of the table.
Wallet partners are one of the most important groups on this network, and plenty of them have been with us for years. So the question we keep coming back to internally is a simple one: what else can we give them that would actually be useful?
Data was the obvious answer. Better numbers make for better decisions, whether that is what to build next, which market to push into, or where the growth budget goes.
Then there is benchmarking, which is the part we were most keen to get in. Most wallets have their own way of tracking their own numbers. What none of them have is a read on how their peers are doing in comparison.
So we built that in, starting with the two numbers most teams lead with. Connections and active users each carry a percentile band showing where you sit against the rest of the network, and it stays anonymous.
You get to see how you are doing against your peers without seeing which wallet is which, and no one gets to pick you out either.
Additionally, a lot of wallets have taken a public position on user data: no IP storage, usage collection on an opt-in basis only. That is a good thing for users who care about confidentiality. However, this means having fewer numbers to work with. With us having data aggregated at the network level, we can also help close some of that gap.
For every wallet listed on the network, here is what you can see.
Health Data
- SDK version adoption, with a version coverage badge
- The connection funnel, from received through to accepted, rejected or expired, with conversion at every stage
With these health insights, wallets can confirm whether their latest release held connection success steady or quietly broke something, work out when to prompt users to update and which old SDK versions are safe to retire, and catch a reliability problem in the week it shows up rather than in next month's support tickets.
In practice. You ship a release, and a couple of weeks later connection acceptance has slipped. The funnel shows which stage it breaks at, and version adoption shows whether the drop sits in one SDK version. Either way, you are looking at it before your users start reporting it. Even a small shift that only affects a narrow group shows up here, which is usually the point where it is still quick and cheap to fix.
WalletConnect Certified wallets unlock a deeper set on top of that. Two more sections open up.
Activity
- Connections and unique active users, daily through to monthly, each with an anonymised percentile band showing where you sit across the network
- First-time against repeat connectors, split weekly
- USD transaction volume trended, with the change against last month and against the 12-month average
With these activity insights, wallets can see whether a release or a campaign actually moved usage rather than just impressions, decide whether the next budget belongs in acquisition or retention depending on how many new connectors come back, and put a USD figure on what their WalletConnect integration is driving right now.
In practice. You run a campaign with a partner app and connections go up. On its own that looks like a win. The percentile band shows whether the campaign actually moved you ahead of your peers, or whether the whole network is trending the same way and you are simply moving with it. The new against returning split then shows whether the users it brought in Together, that tells you whether the campaign worked, and in what way.
User Analytics
- Top five countries by connections and unique users
- App category mix across DeFi, NFT and gaming, trended
- The iOS, Android and desktop split, trended
With these user insights, wallets can choose which markets to grow next with marketing spend and support coverage, decide what to build based on what their users already do once connected, and point development and QA effort at the platforms their users are actually on.
In practice. You are putting next quarter's plan together. The country mix shows a market climbing that you have no localised support for, and the category mix shows your users spending most of their time in DeFi apps rather than some other features you had queued up. That gives you a read on where demand is already building, and on what your users actually spend their time doing once they connect. Both are a firmer basis for deciding what to prioritise next.
Go and have a look
If your wallet is listed on the network, this is already waiting for you. Open the dashboard and Health Data is there.
Certification opens up the other two, and WalletConnect Certified Season 3 is open until the end of 2026. It carries the Season 1 and Season 2 criteria plus the WCT staking requirement, and adds one thing: a native WalletConnect Pay integration, meaning one-click payment from your own QR scanner and one-click payment when the QR is scanned with the device camera. Your users get a one-click checkout. You get interchange-like revenue on what it carries.
- Open your dashboard
- WalletConnect Certified Season 3, including the wallets that just earned it
- What Certified is and how to apply
- Step-by-step of how to get certified
We will keep expanding this, and what gets built next depends on what we hear from you. So go and use it and let us know your feedback!
What is Wallet Analytics?
Wallet Analytics is an analytics page in the WalletConnect Wallet Dashboard. It shows a wallet how its users connect, whether they come back, how much USD volume they move, and how those numbers compare across the WalletConnect Network. The charts are built from aggregated network activity, so a wallet does not build or run any of the data infrastructure behind them.
Which wallets can access Wallet Analytics?
Every wallet listed on the WalletConnect Network gets the Health Data section, covering SDK version adoption and connection success. WalletConnect Certified wallets also get Activity, which covers connections, active users, new against returning connectors and USD transaction volume, and User Analytics, which covers top countries, app category mix and platform split. Wallets that are not listed on the network see no analytics until they are listed.
Does Wallet Analytics require wallets to track their users?
No. The charts are produced from aggregated activity on the WalletConnect Network, so a wallet does not need to add user-level tracking to its app to see them. Peer comparisons are anonymised and shown as percentile bands rather than named-competitor figures.
How do I get WalletConnect Certified?
WalletConnect Certified Season 3 is open until the end of 2026. Wallets need to meet the Season 1 and Season 2 criteria, meet the WCT staking requirement, and add a native WalletConnect Pay integration that supports one-click payment from the wallet's own QR scanner and from the device camera. The step-by-step instructions are in the WalletConnect documentation.
How current is the data in Wallet Analytics?
Data is reported on a T-1 basis, so charts reflect activity up to the previous day rather than in real time.
Can I export Wallet Analytics data or pull it through an API?
Not in this release. There is no data export and no analytics API at launch, and no alerting or notifications. Charts are viewed in the Wallet Dashboard.
