# How to Add BSC to metamask?

You might notice straight away that we’re still dealing with an [Ethereum](https://academy.binance.com/en/articles/what-is-ethereum) wallet. At best, this won’t work with BNB Smart Chain (BSC) DApps. At worst, **you could lose funds by sending them to addresses you can’t actually use**.

Let’s change that. We want to access the **Settings** to point the wallet towards BNB Smart Chain nodes.

*Select Settings from the dropdown menu.*

On the Settings page, we want to locate the Networks menu.

We want to click **Add Network** in the top-right corner to **manually add the BNB Smart Chain** one – it doesn’t come packaged with MetaMask. It’s important to note that there are two networks we can use here: the testnet or the mainnet. Below are the parameters to fill in for each.

#### Mainnet (This is the one you are probably looking for) <a href="#mainnet-this-is-the-one-you-are-probably-looking-for" id="mainnet-this-is-the-one-you-are-probably-looking-for"></a>

**Network Name:** Smart Chain

**New RPC URL:** <https://bsc-dataseed.binance.org/>

**ChainID:** 56

**Symbol:** BNB

**Block Explorer URL:** <https://bscscan.com>
