# Add wallets to back up NFTs

> Add Ethereum, Polygon, and other EVM wallets to Pinata so it can find every NFT you own and back the underlying CIDs up to IPFS automatically.

Add your wallet address to Pinata, then sync to fetch your NFT collections.

## Adding a Wallet

1. Go to [NFT Backup](https://app.pinata.cloud/nft-backup/wallets)
2. Click **Add Wallet**
3. Enter your wallet address
4. Click **Register**

## Syncing a Wallet

After adding a wallet, sync it to fetch your NFT collections:

1. Select a wallet
2. Click **Sync**

Syncing scans your wallet across supported chains and extracts any IPFS CIDs from the metadata and images. This can take a few minutes depending on how many NFTs you have.

## Managing Wallets

From the wallets page you can:

* View sync status and CID counts
* Enable auto-backup
