# Create Address in console

This is a two step process of ensuring the address is not already in the exchange and then creating an address if it doesn't exist. 

**Before any address is created its important to check that the address does not already exist.**

It is possible that an address exists but has not been 'accepted'. This could be due to many reasons and we recommend reviewing the previous actions and events to assist you in decision to use an address.
