How to add Cronos to MetaMask

Adding Cronos to MetaMask takes a few seconds. Modern wallets can add it automatically, or you can enter the network details manually.

The easy way (automatic)

Visit our Cronos token creator and connect — the site prompts MetaMask to add and switch to Cronos in one click. Most dApps do the same.

Manual network details

In MetaMask open Settings → Networks → Add network → Add manually and enter:

• Network name: Cronos
• RPC URL: https://evm.cronos.org
• Chain ID: 25
• Currency symbol: CRO
• Block explorer: https://cronoscan.com

Get CRO

You need a little CRO on the Cronos network. Withdraw CRO from Crypto.com or another exchange, or bridge assets to Cronos.

Stay safe

Only add networks from official sources. Never enter your seed phrase on any "add network" page — it is never required. See avoiding scams.

Why add Cronos to your wallet?

Adding Cronos to your wallet lets you hold Cronos assets, send and receive on the network, and connect to its apps. Once Cronos is set up in your wallet, you can use Cronos DEXs and DeFi, manage tokens, and — when you are ready — create your own token on Cronos. A wallet that supports Cronos is the gateway to everything the network offers. If wallets are new to you, start with crypto wallets explained.

What you can do once Cronos is in your wallet

With Cronos added, your wallet becomes your passport to the Cronos ecosystem: trade tokens on Cronos DEXs, explore DeFi, hold and manage assets, and deploy your own token. That last step is the most empowering — the same Cronos wallet that holds your assets is what you use to create a token on Cronos, no code required and full ownership kept in your hands.
