01

A wallet

Free. It's where your USDC lives and how you approve payments. Ambire creates one in a single click.

02

USDC on Base

Enough for the first payment. Buy it with a card, or move it from an exchange you already use.

That's all

No ETH for fees, no trading, no account at AddonPass. Your wallet stays yours.

Step by step

Choose your starting point.

Pick where you're starting from. Each path ends at the same place: the addon working in Stremio.

Choose your starting point
  1. STEP 01

    Install Ambire.

    Add the free Ambire Wallet extension to Chrome, Brave or Edge. The button below opens its official store page.

    Add Ambire to Chrome
  2. STEP 02

    Create an account in one click.

    Ambire opens a new tab. Click Create new account and it's ready in seconds. Later, back up its recovery phrase in Ambire before you keep more than a few dollars in it.

  3. STEP 03

    Add USDC on Base.

    Buy USDC on Coinbase or another exchange, then send it to your Ambire address on the Base network. No exchange account? Card services like MoonPay or Transak deliver USDC on Base, but charge about 4% and often a minimum fee.

  4. STEP 04

    Connect to the checkout.

    On the checkout, pick Connect a wallet, choose Ambire, and sign in. Signing in is free and moves no money.

  5. STEP 05

    Confirm the payment.

    Confirm in Ambire. AddonPass covers the network fee, so you pay only the plan price.

  6. STEP 06

    Install in Stremio.

    Open your private install link and Stremio adds the addon. Renewals happen automatically until you cancel.

Stay safe

Three rules that prevent almost every mistake.

  1. 01

    Back up your recovery phrase. Never share it.

    Write it on paper once your wallet holds money. Support and AddonPass will never ask for it.

  2. 02

    Always choose the Base network.

    When you move USDC, pick Base. Sending on a different network can lose the money.

  3. 03

    Copy addresses from your wallet only.

    Scammers plant look-alike addresses in your history. They match the start and the end, so check every character.

In plain words

The only terms you'll see.

Wallet
An app that holds your money and approves payments. Only you control it.
USDC
A digital dollar. 1 USDC is designed to stay worth about 1 US dollar.
Base
The network USDC moves on here. Fast, and fees are cents or less.
Passkey
Sign in with Face ID or a fingerprint instead of a password.
Recovery phrase
12 or 24 words that restore a wallet. Never share them.
Spending limit
The most the addon can ever charge, fixed before you pay.

Questions

Before you pay.

Do I pay any fees on top of the price?

No. AddonPass covers the network fee for Base Account and Ambire. You pay the plan price in USDC and nothing else.

Why does this guide recommend Ambire and Base Account?

They're the wallets where AddonPass can cover the network fee, so you only need USDC and never have to buy ETH. Both approve the payment and its spending limit in one confirmation. Other Base wallets work too, but you'd pay a small network fee in ETH yourself.

What does the spending limit mean?

You approve a maximum up front, for example 12 monthly payments. The addon can charge only the fixed price, only once per period, and never more than that limit.

Can I cancel?

Yes, anytime from My subscriptions. Future payments stop, and access stays until the end of the period you paid for.

What if a renewal fails?

Access continues for up to 3 days while AddonPass retries, which gives you time to add USDC.

What if I lose my phone or laptop?

A passkey usually syncs through your Apple, Google or password-manager account. An Ambire wallet comes back with your recovery phrase. AddonPass can't recover wallets for you.

Can I get a refund?

Payments are final once confirmed. You can ask the addon's developer for a voluntary refund; that's their decision.
