Use Kaia Safe
Create a Safe
Here you will see how to create a Safe and evaluate its benefits on the Kaia Network.
Step 1: Navigate to Kaia Safe App. By navigating to the application on your web browser, you can explore the functionality of Kaia Safe.
Step 2: Connect your wallet. At the moment, Kaia Safe support various wallets like Kaia Wallet, MetaMask wallet, etc.
For the sake of this guide, we will be using MetaMask. Make sure you have Kaia networks(Mainnet or Kairos Testnet) added to your MetaMask wallet to connect successfully.
Step 3: Once your wallet is connected, click Create Account and give your new Safe a name. This name is linked to your safe account, which is a multi-signature wallet that holds and stores all of your funds.
Step 4: Add owners/signers by inputting the addresses that have permission to submit and approve transactions. You can add as many signers as you want and remove or replace any of them at any time.
Step 5: Choose how many signer confirmations a transaction in your Safe account needs to be approved. It is important to note that by default our app allows one signer confirmation. But it is advisable to use a threshold higher than 1 to ensure a secured safe account. Good practice is to use a threshold of 51% of the total owners e.g, 2 out of 3, 3 out of 5 etc as shown below:
Step 6: Review and deploy Safe
Once you are completely satisfied with all of your Safe parameters, you can submit the creation of your Safe account and proceed with the on-screen instructions to complete the account creation.
Congratulations on successfully creating your Kaia Safe account!

Further Notes
The following are things you will want to keep in mind while using Kaia Safe:
Transaction Fees
Kaia Safe transactions, whether asset transfers or contract interactions, incur a fee that will be paid by the signer that executes the transaction (usually the last signer to reach the required threshold of signatures).
Safe Nonce
For security reasons, transactions made with Safe need to be executed in order. To achieve this, a number called nonce is assigned to a transaction to ensure that each transaction can be executed once.
At any given time, only transactions with a nonce last executed transaction +1 can be executed. Transactions with a higher nonce are queued for execution. So, whenever a transaction is completed, the next transaction in the queue is made available for execution, provided it has accumulated enough signatures.
Chain-specific addresses
You can choose to copy address with chain prefix
- Copy addresses with chain prefix:
When copying your safe address from your dashboard to paste in your wallet as seen above, you can either choose to add the chain name or not by clicking the checkbox. It is suggested that you leave it unchecked to avoid the error below.
