Need help with Orca? This guide explains the available support channels and what information to include when requesting help.

Support channels

For account-specific or sensitive issues, use the in-app support widget. It helps verify wallet ownership and keeps your request in a private support thread.

In-App Support

The in-app support system is the recommended channel for wallet-specific or transaction-specific requests.

Why use In-App Support?

  • Wallet verification — Helps confirm that you control the wallet involved in the request
  • Private support thread — Keeps account-specific details out of public channels
  • Issue routing — Helps route your request to the appropriate support flow
  • Relevant details — Lets you provide transaction IDs, screenshots, and other context in one place

How to open a support ticket

Step 1: Navigate to Orca

Go to orca.so and connect your wallet.

Step 2: Access Support

On desktop:
  • Click the Support button in the bottom-right corner, or
  • Click your wallet icon in the top-right corner and select Support
On mobile:
  • Tap your wallet address in the top-right corner
  • Select Support

Step 3: Sign the message

To verify wallet ownership:
  1. A signature request appears.
  2. Review the message in your wallet.
  3. Sign the message if the details are correct.
Signing this message verifies wallet ownership and does not submit a blockchain transaction.

    • Select the issue category.
    • Describe the issue clearly.
    • Include relevant transaction IDs if applicable.
    • Attach screenshots if helpful.
  3. Click Send.

Step 5: Check for responses

  • Check My Chat for replies.
  • Responses appear in the same chat thread.
  • Response times vary based on support volume, issue complexity, and the information provided.

Escalation

If your issue is not resolved:
  1. Provide any additional information requested by support.
  2. Follow up in the same ticket.
  3. Include relevant transaction IDs, screenshots, or updated details.
  4. For account-specific issues, continue using in-app support.
