![](https://2795042029-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2Fks3eSAIey3JnQwFITszw%2Fuploads%2FLCGwDZOTroksmd76dabQ%2FMetamask.png?alt=media\&token=c357457f-acf9-4605-b13e-e6a4fb06af6d)

Note: MetaMask is a ERC20 (Ethereum) wallet. Since the Plastik Token is created on the Binance Smart Chain (BEP20), you will need to perform some extra actions. 

1\.    **Download** the MetaMask extension from the official MetaMask website:

2\.    **Open** MetaMask&#x20;

3\.    Select **Create a Wallet.**

&#x20;

4\.    Set up a **strong password**

&#x20;&#x20;

5\.    **Write down** the backup seed phrase in the **exact same order**

The seed phrase is the key to your crypto wallet.

**Saving your seed phrase correctly is the most important thing in the crypto space.** You do this by writing all the words down, always double check if you have written the words down correctly. Make sure to keep them in a safe place. Never store your phrase online, or on your phone, because then hackers might be able to steal your seed phrase.

&#x20;

6\.    **Confirm that you have written the seed phrase correctly.**

7\.    **Wallet is created**

Congratulations! Your wallet is now created.

&#x20;

8\.    **Continue to: "Configure MetaMask" (with either Binance Smart Chain, or CELO)**&#x20;
