Featuring Embedded Consumer Wallets with Turnkey

Today, we’re highlighting Embedded Consumer Wallets with Turnkey, infrastructure that empowers teams to design the exact wallet experience their product needs.

Developers can choose to prioritize speed, shipping out-of-the-box embedded wallets in minutes without any backend required, or they can customize the user experience with composable primitives. Instead of being confined to rigid, pre-built wallet flows, teams can control onboarding, authentication, recovery, and transaction UX end-to-end without sacrificing non-custodial security or scalability. 

This is purpose-built for DeFi, trading, and consumer apps looking to differentiate, launch quickly, and scale confidently on battle-tested infrastructure.

Key challenges when building Embedded Consumer Wallets

Building embedded consumer wallets becomes significantly more complex at scale. Security, performance, and UX requirements quickly collide, turning wallet infrastructure into one of the hardest parts of shipping a consumer onchain app.

Common challenges facing these consumer teams are:

• Launching quickly: Building secure key storage, signing flows, onboarding, and recovery infrastructure from scratch can take months. Most teams lack the time and security expertise required, and maintaining non-custodial compliance adds ongoing overhead that slows product innovation.
• High throughput: DeFi, trading, and consumer apps operate in high-velocity environments where latency directly affects conversion, trading execution, and user retention. Wallet infrastructure must prioritize fast signing, reliability, and scalability from day one.
• Non-custodial security: Maintaining non-custodial architecture is resource-intensive.  Key isolation, signing controls, and operational safeguards are hard to implement at scale, and some approaches like MPC introduce additional assumptions and coordination overhead, while secure enclaves require careful setup and monitoring. 
• Limited customization: Many wallet solutions focus primarily on onboarding convenience but restrict deeper customization. Relying on opinionated flows can force teams to outsource critical UX decisions and limit their ability to build differentiated experiences.

The benefits of Embedded Consumer Wallets with Turnkey

Embedded consumer wallets need to do more than simply exist inside an app. They must launch quickly, perform reliably under growth, maintain strong non-custodial security, and give teams the flexibility to evolve over time. 

The capabilities below highlight how Turnkey provides the infrastructure foundation to support those needs.

Fast deployment

Launch embedded wallets in minutes with authentication, multichain support, and transaction signing built-in. Teams can move from concept to production quickly without building wallet infrastructure from scratch.

High-performance infrastructure

Make high-frequency in-app crypto interactions feel instantaneous and reliable.
Designed for high-velocity consumer apps, Turnkey delivers sub-100ms signing as transaction volume and user growth increase.

Familiar authentication and recovery

Reduce user friction, improve retention, and deliver secure wallet access. By enabling passkeys, social login, email-based authentication, and flexible recovery flows, teams can deliver secure wallet access without forcing users to manage seed phrases or navigate complex crypto-native recovery steps.

Secure, controlled wallet access

Create multi-user accounts, enforce granular permissions, and restrict users to specific signing or approval actions. Keys remain isolated in secure enclaves within a non-custodial architecture. This strengthens user trust while enabling precise controls over access, usage policies, and compliance requirements. 

Flexible wallet flows

Customize the wallet experience end-to-end, from onboarding to every transaction. Build UX flows that evolve with your product, enabling advanced features like pre-generated wallets, sending crypto to users before signup, or sponsoring gas for non-crypto-native users.

Turnkey: Embedded Consumer Wallets built for scale

Embedded Consumer Wallets with Turnkey give DeFi, trading, and consumer apps the ability to launch non-custodial wallets quickly while maintaining full control over UX, security, and scalability. 

Teams can deliver seamless onboarding, flexible authentication, and high-performance transaction experiences without compromising on security or long-term product flexibility.
