Ensure that your MetaMask account is connected to the Polygon network for lower gas fees.
3. Swap your Assets for FOLO
Swap your assets for FOLO. If you don’t see FOLO as an option, you’ll need to add its Token Address into MetaMask manually. Copy it here: 0xef205f99bd869e74b16050199d54327a0ecd343d
Note: You’ll need to have enough digital assets in your MetaMask wallet to swap for FOLO and pay gas fees. If you wish to purchase POL (previously known as MATIC), click here.
4. Adjust Slippage Tolerance (If Needed, Try Above 0.1%)
If the swap fails, you might need to increase your slippage tolerance. Go to “Settings” and adjust your slippage tolerance percentage higher than 0.1%.
5. Confirm Your Swap
Confirm the swap by clicking “Accept” and “Confirm Swap”.
6. Wait For Transaction Confirmation
Confirm the transaction on MetaMask, paying attention to the gas fees. You’ll receive a notification once your transaction is confirmed.
