# Aftermath

**Prerequisites**

* **A Sui wallet** compatible with Tread's wallet connector (e.g. Sui Wallet, Suiet, Phantom with Sui support).
* **An Aftermath perpetuals account.** Create one at [aftermath.finance](https://aftermath.finance) before linking. If the wallet has no perpetuals account, Tread will return *"No Aftermath perpetuals account found for this wallet."*
* **A funded Gas Pool.** Aftermath uses Gas Pools to sponsor transaction fees so you can trade without holding SUI. You must:

  * Set up a Gas Pool at [aftermath.finance/gas-pool](https://aftermath.finance/gas-pool) (or [testnet.aftermath.finance/gas-pool](https://testnet.aftermath.finance/gas-pool) on testnet).
  * Deposit a supported token (e.g. SUI) so the pool balance is greater than zero.

  Tread will surface *"No Gas Pool found"* or *"Your Gas Pool is empty"* if this step is skipped.

**Linking Your Aftermath Account**

**Open Up the** [**Key Management**](https://app.tread.fi/key_management) **menu on tread.fi**

* This can be accessed by clicking on the wallet icon on the top right corner on app.tread.fi after you have logged in.
* Click **Connect Aftermath**
* Set your desired name for this exchange account.
* Connect the same wallet you used to create your Aftermath account.
* Click Submit and proceed with wallet signing and confirmation.
