# Create a Wallet

You can use this API to create wallet funding account for users. A user must be registered and KYC/KYB must be VERIFIED before a wallet funding source can be added for the user. To register a user and conduct their KYC/KYB, please follow the details [here](https://paas.docs.machnetinc.com/api-references/user/initiate-verification). Please also note that for business users, they be registered with `deposit_enabled`: true for them to be able to create a wallet. Only one wallet account can be added for a specific verified user.
