■How to purchase MANA

First, we will explain how to purchase MANA, the currency used in Decentraland, on the premise that you have cryptocurrency on Polygon such as MATIC and WETH. Please use a computer.

*You will need MATIC for gas to make transactions on Polygon

1) Acess Uniswap

Make sure the chain in the upper right is Polygon and connect your wallet

https://app.uniswap.org/#/swap?chain=polygon

2) Swap the currency you have for MANA

In this case, we will proceed with the example of having MATIC.

If the current currency is not MATIC, click where it shows MATIC in the image below, and a list of suggested currencies and a search window will appear. Choose MATIC.

Click on “Select a token” below, and the search window will appear again. Enter “mana” or “0xA1c57f48F0Deb89f569dFbE6E2B7f46D33606fD4” and select MANA.

3) Decide how much you want and swap currencies

Enter the amount you wish to swap in the number to the left of MANA in the bottom column.

In this case, we will set it to 0.5. It will be displayed in dollars for reference.

Click on the red “Swap” button and MetaMask will open. Click “Confirm”.

4) Add MANA to your MetaMask wallet

When you’re finished, the following screen will appear. Click “Add MANA to Metamask”

MetaMask will open “Add Suggested Tokens”. Click “Add Token”.

That’s all! Check that the MANA you swapped is correctly displayed in your MetaMask wallet.
