Via User Interface

The Ranger vault creation UI provides the fastest way to create and configure a vault without writing any code.

Step 1: Create Your Vault

Navigate to vaults.ranger.finance/create and connect your wallet.

Submit the Transaction

Click "Initialize Vault" and approve the transaction in your wallet. The vault will be created on-chain and you'll receive the vault public key.

Save your vault public key — you'll need it for all subsequent operations.

Step 2: Add Adapators and Manage Your Vault

After creation, manage your vault at:

https://vaults.ranger.finance/manage/<VAULT_PUBKEY>

Replace <VAULT_PUBKEY> with your vault's public key.

From the manage page you can:

• View, add, and remove Adaptors

• Update vault configuration (as admin)

Step 3: Next Steps (Requires SDK/Scripts)

The UI handles vault creation and configuration, but the following operations require the SDK or protocol-specific scripts:

1. Initialize strategies — connect your vault to DeFi protocols → See Strategy Setup Guide

2. Allocate funds — deploy idle funds into strategies → See Fund Allocation Guide

3. Set up automation — bots for rebalancing and rewards claiming → See Running Bots & Scripts

4. Get listed on Ranger — make your vault visible to users → See Indexing & Listing on Ranger

Creating a vault via the UI is just the first step. Your vault won't generate yield until you initialize strategies and allocate funds to them using the SDK.
