# Quickstart: Mint Your First Prediction Card

> Set up a Solana wallet, get devnet SOL, and mint your first World Cup 2026 prediction NFT card on Kickchain in minutes.

Getting your first Kickchain prediction card takes about five minutes. You'll set up a Solana wallet, fund it with free devnet SOL, connect to the app, pick a match market, and watch your prediction become a collectible NFT — all without spending real money.

<Warning>
  Kickchain runs on **Solana devnet**. Always use devnet SOL, not real SOL, when interacting with the app. Transactions sent with real SOL on mainnet will not affect your Kickchain cards and cannot be refunded.
</Warning>

<Steps>
  <Step title="Get a Solana Wallet">
    You need a Solana wallet that supports Mobile Wallet Adapter (MWA) on Android. **Phantom** is the recommended option and is available on the Google Play Store. Other MWA-compatible Android wallets work too.

    Once installed, open your wallet app and create a new wallet. Write down your seed phrase and store it somewhere safe — this is the only way to recover your wallet if you lose access to your device.

    <Info>
      Kickchain is a mobile app built for Android. iOS support is not available during the current early access phase.

  </Step>

  <Step title="Get Devnet SOL">
    Kickchain runs on Solana devnet, so you need devnet SOL to pay for transaction fees. Devnet SOL has no real-world value and is free to claim.

    Visit the **Solana faucet** at [faucet.solana.com](https://faucet.solana.com), paste your wallet address, and request an airdrop. A small amount of devnet SOL — enough for dozens of predictions — will arrive in your wallet within seconds.

    <Tip>
      If the Solana faucet is rate-limited, try the **Solana CLI** airdrop command or a third-party devnet faucet. A balance of 1–2 devnet SOL is plenty to get started.
    </Tip>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Open Kickchain and Connect Your Wallet">
    Launch the Kickchain app on your Android device. You'll land on the **Matches** screen, which shows the currently available World Cup 2026 fixtures.

    Tap **Connect Wallet** at the top of the Matches screen. Your MWA-compatible wallet app will open and ask you to approve the connection. Approve it, and you'll be returned to Kickchain with your wallet address visible in the app.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Browse Live Fixtures and Tap a Match">
    The Matches tab lists all available World Cup 2026 fixtures with live odds. Scroll through the list and tap any match that interests you to open its detail view.

    Inside a fixture, you'll see the match date, the two teams, and the three available prediction markets with real-time odds for every possible outcome.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Pick a Market and Choose Your Outcome">
    Each fixture offers up to three markets to predict:

    <Tabs>
      <Tab title="Match Result (1X2)">
        Predict whether the home team wins, the match ends in a draw, or the away team wins. This is the most straightforward market and usually offers lower odds on favourites.
      </Tab>

      <Tab title="Over/Under 2.5 Goals">
        Predict whether the total number of goals scored in the match will be over or under 2.5. Over 2.5 means three or more goals; Under 2.5 means two or fewer.
      </Tab>

      <Tab title="Both Teams to Score (BTTS)">
        Predict whether both teams will score at least one goal during the match. A clean sheet by either side means the BTTS No outcome wins.
      </Tab>
    </Tabs>

    Tap the outcome you want to predict. The current odds are displayed alongside each option — these are the odds that will be locked into your card when you mint.

    <Tip>
      Longer odds produce rarer cards. A prediction at odds of 7.00 or above mints a **Legendary** card worth 5 leaderboard points if it wins — compared to 1 point for a Common card. It's worth considering the rarity when picking your market.
    </Tip>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Confirm the Transaction in Your Wallet">
    After selecting your outcome, tap **Predict** (or **Mint Card**) to submit your prediction. Your MWA wallet will open and display a transaction approval request.

    Review the transaction details and tap **Approve**. The transaction is sent to Solana devnet, your prediction is recorded on-chain, and your card's rarity tier is assigned based on the odds you locked in.

    <Note>
      Each wallet can only hold one prediction per market per fixture. If you've already predicted the Match Result for a specific game, you won't be able to predict that same market again — but you can still predict the Over/Under or BTTS markets for the same fixture.
    </Note>
  </Step>

  <Step title="See Your Minted Card in the Collection Tab">
    Once the transaction is confirmed, navigate to the **Collection** tab. Your newly minted card will appear there with your match details, the outcome you predicted, your rarity tier, and the card's foil treatment.

    That's it — you've made your first on-chain World Cup prediction and minted your first Kickchain collectible. Now wait for the final whistle, check back for settlement, and see if your pick earns leaderboard points.
  </Step>
