# Wallet selection

Before we continue, please select the wallet you will use for interacting with CreDA platform.

Make sure also you have bridged some ETH to Arbitrum AETH, as you will need to pay for gas fees. We recommend at least 0.03 AETH as the initial balance. If you need help with getting your ETH to AETH, see [Arbitrum bridge tutorial](https://creda-app.gitbook.io/protocol/guides/arbitrum-bridge-tutorial).
