- Open Metamask and click on the dropdown of networks at the top of the screen. Go down to
Add Network
and fill in the following information:
Metamask Network Parameters
Network Name: Mumbai Testnet
New RPC URL: https://rpc-mumbai.maticvigil.com
Chain ID: 80001
Currency Symbol: MATIC
Block Explorer URL: https://polygonscan.com/
- Double check that the network was added to your wallet:
- Get some fake MATIC from a facuet. In order to deploy your contract to the Polygon blockchain, your wallet address needs to have some MATIC to make the transaction. Because we're on the Mumbai Testnet, we'll use fake MATIC which you can get from a faucet like this one.
- Copy your wallet address from Metamask
