# Create a New Multisig (Nova Spektr)

Nova Wallet lets you manage your existing multisig wallets. To create a brand new multisig, we recommend that you use [Nova Spektr](https://app.novaspektr.io/). Nova Spektr is an application specifically designed for managing multisig and proxy accounts and is developed by the Novasama Technologies team.

The multisig creation process takes only a few minutes in Nova Spektr. Once a multisig is created, you can create and sign multisig transactions directly from Nova Wallet. 

{% hint style="info" %}
If you already have an active multisig, it will automatically be detected by Nova Wallet. An active multisig has to have at least one transaction created.
{% endhint %}

### Pair Nova Wallet with Nova Spektr

1. Go to the [Nova Spektr](https://app.novaspektr.io/) web application on your **computer**.
2. Under **Add your wallet**, `select` the **Nova Wallet** option. You will see a QR code appear.
3. On your Nova Wallet device, `select` the **QR code scanner** which is located at the top left of the Assets screen.
4. `Allow` Nova Wallet **access to your device’s camera** if prompted.
5. `Scan` the **QR code** using your Nova Wallet device.
6. On your Nova Wallet device, `select` **Allow** to pair your Nova Wallet with Nova Spektr.
7. `Input` the **name** for your wallet in Nova Spektr and `select` **Continue**.
8. Your Nova Wallet is now paired with Nova Spektr!

### Add contacts and create multisig in Nova Spektr

8. In Nova Spektr, navigate to the **Address Book** section of the left menu.
9. `Select` the **Add contact** button at the top right of the screen.
10. `Input` the **name** and **account address** of your fellow signatories and `select` **Add contact**. Repeat as many times as necessary to add all signatories of your future multisig. The names are only used locally and not broadcasted into the network.
11. `Select` the account dropdown at the top left of the screen.
12. `Select` **Add**, and then `select` **Multisig**.
13. `Input` the **name** for your multisig and `select` the primary **network** that you want to use the multisig on. The name is only used locally and not broadcasted into the network.

{% hint style="info" %}
Ensure that your account has the required amount of tokens to cover any required deposits and network fees.
{% endhint %}

13. `Select` **Continue**.
14. `Select` the **Address** field and `select` your wallet.
15. `Select` **Add new signatory** and `select` your contact. Repeat as many times as necessary for your multisig.
16. `Select` the **threshold** for your multisig. This is the required number of signatories who need to sign a transaction for it to be approved. You cannot change this number later without creating a new multisig.
17. Your multisig has now been created! If you switch to your multisig wallet in Nova Spektr, you will see a pending operation. This operation exists so that other applications can correctly identify this account as a multisig. You can feel free to reject this operation.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.novawallet.io/nova-wallet-wiki/wallet-management/multisig-wallets/create-a-new-multisig-nova-spektr.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
