# Using Ledger on Spin

## Introduction

There are two main ways to use Ledger:

1. Using "Near Wallet".
2. Using the native Ledger support.

{% hint style="warning" %}
At this time, "Near Wallet" is the only option available for spot and perps. However, DeFi Option Vaults support both NEAR Wallet and native Ledger connection.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="success" %}
Before you start, make sure you have a Ledger with the NEAR application installed. You can install the NEAR application using Ledger [Live.](https://www.ledger.com/ledger-live)
