\ud83d\uded2 How to Buy NFTs on the Polygon network<\/span><\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \n

    Prepare your wallet<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Make sure you have\u00a0<\/span>MetaMask<\/span><\/strong><\/a>\u00a0connected to OpenSea and set to the <\/span>Polygon network<\/span><\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  2. \n

    Have enough POL <\/span><\/strong>\u2013 You need enough <\/span>POL<\/span><\/strong> in your wallet to pay for the NFT + <\/span>gas fees<\/span><\/strong> (transaction costs) on Polygon. (The gas fee itself is very small, usually like 0.1$).<\/span>
    \n<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  3. \n

    The NFT price is shown in\u00a0<\/span>WETH<\/span>.<\/span><\/strong>
    \nWhat is WETH?<\/span><\/em>\u00a0\u2013\u00a0<\/span>WETH (Wrapped Ethereum)<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0is basically\u00a0<\/span>ETH that has been converted to work on the Polygon network<\/span><\/strong>. WETH is a token that represents ETH 1:1 but lives on Polygon, so it can be used for buying and selling NFTs on that chain.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  4. \n

    Don’t have WETH?<\/span><\/strong> \u2013 No problem! OpenSea can auto-convert your POL into WETH during checkout. If the automatic conversion isn’t available or doesn’t work, use MetaMask’s built-in Swap feature to swap your POL for WETH (Polygon).<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  5. \n

    Click “Buy Now”<\/span><\/strong> \u2013 Review the total cost, confirm the transaction in your MetaMask wallet, pay the small fee in POL and you’re done! The NFT will appear in your “Collected” tab.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
