In the previous article, we explained that it was possible to use the Zapper Bridge to bridge tokens from Ethereum to Polygon.

In this guide, we will show you an alternate way to bridge tokens, this time using the official Matic Bridge — otherwise known as the PoS Bridge (Proof-of-Stake bridge).

Pre-requisites

  • ETH on your Ethereum wallet
  • Token you wish to bridge
