# Connecting to operator account

The Marketplace app allows you to browse through a list of available solution groups with or without a wallet being connected. Without the connection however, you won't be able to perform token lifting, lowering or subscription. To connect:

1. Click on `Connect` button either on the left-side panel or on top corner of the screen

{% hint style="info" %}
Tip: There's a "Connect" button in the solution group detail page as well
{% endhint %}
