# How to collect credentials?

To collect verifiable credentials, you’ll first need to create a DID in the Upward Wallet app.&#x20;

👉 [You can download Upward Wallet here](https://upward.uptick.network/index)



Click the ‘DIDs’ tab below to access the DID section, and use the creation option in the upper-right corner. Just like on the Vouch web platform, you’ll need to provide a DID name, logo, and description.

After creating your DID, provide it to verifiable credential issuers and wait for them to issue the credentials.

Alternatively, you can scan the QR code of a ‘Credential Link’ in the ‘Credentials’ section to actively claim verifiable credentials.

Simply select a DID to claim the credential and submit. It typically takes about 30 seconds — refresh the page to view the results.
