# How to set up a BNB wallet on MetaMask?

1. Download and install the MetaMask app. 
2. Create a Wallet and backup your seed phrase somewhere secret (preferably not on an Internet-connected device). Without this phrase, your funds can’t be recovered if your device is damaged or lost. 
3. Your wallet is now ready to send and receive funds. 
4. Go to the Settings page, and locate the Networks menu. 
5. Click Add Network in the top-right corner to manually add Binance Smart Chain. 
6. Fill in the following parameters for Mainnet: 

* Network Name: Smart Chain 
* New RPC URL: <https://bsc-dataseed.binance.org/&#x20>;
* ChainID: 56&#x20;
* Symbol: BNB Block Explorer URL: <https://bscscan.com&#x20>;

Once you Save the Network and return to the main view, you’ll notice the network has automatically changed and the units are now denominated in BNB.
