How to join on testnet and see your tokens

tip

If you don’t have a wallet, create one which is recommended if you want to see test tokens.

Add Polygon Network​

Adding Polygon Network support to MetaMask is a mandatory step in order to add the WXM token, view activity, and make transactions. Make sure you follow our step-by-step guide below for adding the Polygon Network to MetaMask.

We will provide guidance for both Polygon Mainnet and Testnet (also called Mumbai Testnet) but as we are currently in testnet, you need to add the Testnet network.

There are two ways to do it:

  1. Using Polygonscan (Only for Desktop with MetaMask browser extension already installed)
  2. Add the Polygon network manually

Using Polygonscan​

note

Please make sure you have already installed MetaMask!

This solution works only on desktop with the MetaMask browser extension already installed.

Please follow the steps to add Polygon Testnet (also known as Mumbai Testnet):

  • Navigate to mumbai.polygonscan.com
  • Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click on the button Add Mumbai Network
  • Once you click the button you will see a MetaMask notification, now click on Approve. Next, click Switch Network. You will be switched to Polygon Testnet in the network dropdown list. You can now close the dialog.

If you face any issues, Add the Network Manually (steps given below).

Add the Polygon network manually​

To add Polygon Testnet (Mumbai), click on the Network selection dropdown and then click on Add Network.

It will open up a new Settings page which contains a form. You can add Polygon Testnet in the Network Name field, https://matic-mumbai.chainstacklabs.com/ in the New RPC URL field, 80001 in the Chain ID field, MATIC in the Currency Symbol field and https://mumbai.polygonscan.com/ in the Block Explorer URL field.

Once you’ve added the URL in the New Network field, click on Save. You will be directly switched to Polygon Testnet now in the network dropdown list. You can now close the dialog.

You have successfully added the Polygon Network to your MetaMask!

Add WXM token in MetaMask​

For the WXM token to appear in the wallet UI, you will need to add it manually. Note that your wallet can still receive tokens that haven’t been imported.

IMPORTANT NOTE

Please make sure you have already added the Mumbai-Testnet and have connected to it by following the guide above!

  1. First, you will need the following details of the WXM token in order to add it:
    1. Token Contract Address: 0xeCbbbF304fdf91cdDDA6C6643ED1300A552b691A
    2. Token Symbol: WXM
    3. Token Decimal: 18

You can verify those details on PolygonScan.

  1. On MetaMask and click [Import tokens].

  1. Paste in the WXM’s contract address and MetaMask should automatically fill in the rest of the details. If not, add them manually. To finish, click [Add Custom Token].

  2. Click [Import Tokens].

You have now successfully added the WXM token to your MetaMask wallet!
