What is Ledger Live Integration?

Ledger Live Integration allows developers, blockchain projects, and service providers to embed their applications, blockchains, and features directly within the Ledger Live ecosystem. This cross-platform companion app, available on desktop (Windows, macOS, Linux) and mobile (iOS, Android), securely connects to Ledger hardware wallets to empower users with complete control over their digital assets.

By integrating with Ledger Live, you can offer users a secure, hardware-backed experience combined with a seamless interface that supports managing crypto assets, signing transactions, and exploring Live Apps (dApps) inside the app environment.

Integration Options for Developers

The Ledger Developer Portal provides comprehensive support for three primary integration pathways:

• Accounts Integration: Add native support for your blockchain to let users create and view accounts within Ledger Live. This requires collaboration with Ledger’s teams and adherence to submission guidelines.
• Live Apps (dApps): Embed Web3 decentralized applications directly into Ledger Live’s Discover section. Using Ledger Services Kit and Wallet API, Live Apps benefit from hardware-secured transaction signing and smooth UX flows.
• Device Apps: Develop C or Rust based applications that run securely on Ledger hardware devices. These are ideal for protocol-level signing and require following Ledger’s submission and review process.

Key Benefits of Ledger Live Integration

• Unmatched Security: Your users' private keys never leave the Ledger hardware device, offering top-tier protection against hacking, phishing, or malware attacks.
• Seamless User Experience: Integrations allow users to manage all their assets, sign transactions, and interact with apps inside a single, polished interface.
• Multi-Blockchain Support: Enable access to thousands of digital assets and blockchains within one app, simplifying portfolio tracking and management.
• Developer-Friendly Toolkit: Access official APIs, SDKs, sample code, and UX best practices to accelerate integration and improve reliability.
• Customizable UX Flows: Implement clear and explicit transaction signing prompts, especially for EVM-compatible blockchains, improving user trust and clarity.

How to Get Started with Ledger Live Integration

Developers interested in integrating with Ledger Live can follow these essential steps:

Security Best Practices

Ledger prioritizes user safety and recommends developers adhere to strict security standards:

• Keep all sensitive cryptographic operations on-device to prevent exposure of seeds or private keys.
• Ensure signing flows show explicit transaction details and require user consent for every action.
