How to Close Token Accounts in Phantom Wallet
Phantom is the most popular Solana wallet, and if you've been using it for trading, you likely have many empty token accounts locking up your SOL. Here's how to close them and recover your funds.
Phantom does have a built-in feature to close individual token accounts. You can find it by going to your token list, clicking on a zero-balance token, and selecting 'Close Account.' However, this method requires you to close each account one by one -- which is impractical if you have dozens or hundreds of empty accounts.
The fastest way to close all empty token accounts in Phantom is to use SolWipe. Here's how: Open your Phantom wallet browser or use a web browser. Navigate to solwipe.com. Click the wallet connection button and select Phantom. Approve the connection in Phantom.
Once connected, SolWipe scans your Phantom wallet and shows you exactly how many empty accounts you have and how much SOL you can reclaim. Click 'Claim' to close all accounts in a single transaction -- no need to close them one by one.
SolWipe works with Phantom on both desktop (Chrome extension) and mobile (Phantom's built-in browser). The process is the same on both platforms: connect, scan, and claim.
After closing your accounts, you can verify the results in Phantom by checking your SOL balance -- it should reflect the recovered rent deposits. You can also view the transaction details on Solscan using the link provided by SolWipe.
Safety and permissions
Phantom will always show you the full transaction before you sign. SolWipe only requests permissions needed to propose closing accounts you approve; it never asks for your seed phrase. If you use multiple Solana addresses inside Phantom, connect the one you want to clean and repeat for others if needed.
