Claim your .on name.
A .on name is a readable name for your XRP Ledger account. The first 5,000 members also get a Genesis pass: numbered, with no price, and never for sale.
Invitation only. Reserving a name holds it; it is not ownership. Target opening:
Find and reserve a name
A name you can say out loud, and a pass that stays yours.
What a .on name and a Genesis pass give you. Each line says what works today and what comes later.
A name instead of a long address
alice.on is easier to read out, type and check than an address of about 34 characters. Sending to a name from OnWallet follows in a later release.
XRP Ledger first
Your name is an NFT in your own XRP Ledger account. Sending to the same name on other chains is intended later; no date is promised.
Each name exists once
A name has one holder: the first to claim it. Names that read like a protected one are refused, so supp0rt cannot pose as support.
Genesis stops at 5,000
Passes are numbered in the order they are accepted on the ledger. A pass cannot be bought, sold or transferred.
Monthly OpenApps credits
Up to US$10 a month for a Member, rising by level to up to US$100 for a Steward. Usable on leading AI models.
Supporter features
Genesis members get the Supporter features of OpenCapture and OpenPdfEdit.
No fee for a Genesis name
A name claimed with a Genesis invitation carries no fee and no renewal fee. Names issued later are intended to carry a platform fee; none has been set.
Your key, split three ways
OnWallet splits your key into three parts and puts it together only on your own device. The server holds one part, so it cannot move funds.
A different ID for every site
Sign in with OnWallet gives each website its own ID for you, so sites cannot match you across each other. The code that handles your keys is open source.
Early access
Genesis members can try new OnWallet releases before they open to everyone.
Reasons 5, 6 and 7 are perks of Genesis membership. Rewards are at OpenApps' discretion and may be adjusted for long-term sustainability. Nothing on this page is a promise of any token, allocation or financial return.
Four steps, and the claim happens in your own wallet.
This page only holds a name. Nothing here asks you to connect a wallet or sign anything.
-
01
Reserve a name
Search above, verify your email, and keep the short code you are shown. A reservation is a hold, not ownership.
-
02
Create an OnWallet ID
Install OnWallet and create an ID. Anyone can do this; an invite key is not needed for it.
-
03
Enter an invite key
On the Claim screen, type your invite key and your reservation code. Invite keys gate the claim, and each wave has a cap. Once you start a claim, finish it within 90 days.

04
Fund the account and approve
With at least 2 XRP in your account, OnWallet shows two review cards: one for the pass, one for the name. You approve each and pay only the ledger's network fee.
You fund your own account. OpenApps sends no XRP.
An XRP Ledger account has to hold a reserve before it can hold anything else. It is your XRP, in your account.
Have at least 2 XRP in your account; your exchange may require a larger minimum withdrawal.
About 1.2 XRP stays in your account as the ledger's reserve. You cannot spend it while the account and its NFTs exist.
From another XRP Ledger wallet
Send at least 2 XRP to your OnWallet address. OnWallet shows the address, a QR code and a request link.
From a friend
A friend sends at least 2 XRP to your address. The link between the two accounts is public on the ledger.
From an exchange
Withdraw to your OnWallet address. Exchanges set their own minimum and take a fee from the amount. A personal wallet has no destination tag.
- 1 XRP
- The base reserve every account on the ledger holds.
- 0.2 XRP
- The reserve for the one page that holds both the pass and the name.
- about 0.00001 XRP
- The network fee for each of your two approvals.
- The mint fee
- Paid by OpenApps. OpenApps gives no XRP to anyone.
Reserves are set by the ledger's validators, not by OpenApps. OnWallet reads them from the ledger and shows the exact amount when you claim. The figures above are today's.
OpenApps never sends XRP to anyone, and never asks you to send XRP to it to claim a pass or a name. A message offering XRP in our name is a scam.
A name is public. Your reservation email is not.
What anyone can see, what is kept, and for how long.
On the ledger, for good
Your name, the account that holds it, that account's balance and payments, and the account that funded it are public and permanent.
Your email address
Kept encrypted and used only for this reservation. It is deleted when you use your code, when you cancel, or 30 days after the hold lapses; encrypted backups keep it up to 30 days longer. A scrambled fingerprint of the address stays so that it cannot reserve twice. It is erased 90 days after the hold on your reservation ends, whether or not you used it; the 90 days is a working figure, still to be confirmed.
This page
No trackers and no third-party scripts. A name you type is checked against the rules in your browser, then looked up at the registrar.
The pass has no price. A Genesis name carries no fee.
What each part costs, who pays it, and what a Genesis pass carries.
| Item | What it costs |
|---|---|
| Genesis pass | No price. It cannot be bought, sold or transferred. |
| .on name | No fee for a name claimed with a Genesis invitation, and no renewal fee. Names issued later are intended to carry a platform fee; none has been set or published. |
| Minting | OpenApps pays the ledger's network fee. |
| Your account's reserve | Your own XRP. About 1.2 XRP stays in your account. |

- Credits can be spent wherever OpenApps products accept credits, including on leading AI models. What a credit buys differs between products.
- “Up to” is meant literally. Each month has one budget; when it is reached every grant is scaled down, and a month can grant nothing. Unused credits lapse at the end of each calendar month (UTC).
- Levels raise priority for any event, e.g. a community sale for a tokenised project, if one is ever held.
- Levels do not unlock more invite keys.
- Levels are assigned by OpenApps. Every member starts as a Member, and no way of reaching a higher level has been set.
- Monthly credits begin after the opening, on a date that will be published here.
Rewards are at OpenApps' discretion and may be adjusted for long-term sustainability. Genesis membership has no price and cannot be sold, and it carries no promise of any token. The pass is its public badge.
What people ask before they reserve.
Each answer stands on its own.
- What is a .on name?
- A .on name is an NFT on the XRP Ledger whose content is exactly the name, held in your own account. It cannot be sold today and is intended to be transferable later; no date is promised.
- What is a Genesis pass?
- A Genesis pass is the public badge of Genesis membership: a soulbound NFT on the XRP Ledger that you cannot sell or transfer. It is a separate NFT from the name, and it is numbered. The membership itself belongs to your OnWallet ID, and the perks follow the membership.
- Does a reservation mean the name is mine?
- No. A reservation is a hold, not ownership. It keeps one name for one verified email address and gives you a short code. The name becomes yours when you claim it in OnWallet with an invite key, and the hold lapses if you do not.
- Do I need an invite key?
- You need an invite key to claim, not to create an OnWallet ID or to reserve a name here. Entering a key makes your OnWallet ID a Genesis member. Keys are given out in waves, and each wave has a cap.
- Is there a time limit?
- Yes, two. A reservation made here lapses 14 days after your wave opens. And once you start a claim in OnWallet, it must be completed within 90 days; after that the claim is lost and cannot be opened again.
- What does it cost?
- The Genesis pass has no price, and a name claimed with a Genesis invitation carries no fee. You fund your own account with at least 2 XRP, of which about 1.2 XRP stays as the ledger's reserve. OpenApps pays the mint fee.
- Can I get the 1.2 XRP back?
- Treat it as locked. The ledger holds it as reserve, and you cannot spend it while the account and its NFTs exist. It is your XRP in your account; OpenApps never holds it.
- Can I sell my name or my pass?
- The pass can never be sold or transferred. The name cannot be sold today. It is intended to be transferable later, and no date is promised.
- Is there a token or an airdrop?
- No. Genesis membership has no price and cannot be sold, and it carries no promise of any token, allocation or financial return.
- Is OnWallet part of Ripple?
- No. OnWallet is an independent project built on the public XRP Ledger. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or partnered with Ripple or the XRP Ledger Foundation.
- What if I lose the key to my account?
- A name can be issued again; a Genesis pass never is. If you lose the key, you can ask for your name at a new account: we burn the old one, publish that we did, wait 7 days (the draft policy's figure), and issue the name to the new account. If a name is burned by someone who stole one of our keys, we issue it again to the same account. Each case is handled by our operators, by hand, under the draft name policy. Your Genesis membership belongs to your OnWallet ID and does not depend on holding the pass.
- How do I know a message about this is real?
- The claim happens only inside OnWallet. Nobody from OnWallet sends direct messages, sends XRP, or asks for your recovery kit. How to know it is real lists what to check.
- Which names are allowed?
- Names are 5 to 32 characters of a to z, 0 to 9 and hyphens. Reserved names, names shaped like an address and look-alikes of protected names are refused. The search box applies the rules as you type, and the draft name policy has every one.
- Why was an ordinary name refused?
- The rules are cautious on purpose. They even out digits that read as letters, doubled letters and hyphens before comparing names, and they look for a small number of protected words inside a name and for names one slip away from them, so that nobody can pose as the service or as a well-known name. Now and then that refuses a name chosen innocently. If you think a name should be allowed, write to the contact address: not published yet.
- Has OnWallet been audited?
- Not yet by an independent auditor. Use it with small amounts only.
