# Getting crypto to start

## Polygon campaigns

### Buying and bridging Matic to Polygon

\
In order to proceed you’d require to have some Matic tokens on your account, and have them transferred to Polygon network.

You could purchase Matic on a decentralized exchange here:<https://app.uniswap.org/#/swap?outputCurrency=0x7d1afa7b718fb893db30a3abc0cfc608aacfebb0>. After purchasing, you would have Matic on the Mainnet, and you would still have to transfer it to Polygon.

Basically you’d need to go to<https://wallet.polygon.technology/bridge>, connect to your wallet on Mainnet, select tokens (Matic) to bridge, and initiate transactions.

Here you could find a pretty decent guide on how to bridge tokens to Polygon, if you’re experiencing problems:<https://youtu.be/4BWzYtsRHg0?t=138>

{% hint style="info" %}
**Please note:** If you don't have any tokens, you could buy Matic straight at <https://www.coinbase.com/>, but be sure to have on Polygon network and transferred to your non-custodial wallet such as Metamask to be able to use our Dashboard

\
If you prefer Ethereum Mainnet,you will just need Ether. \
Just head to <https://www.coinbase.com/> to buy some ETH  there. <br>
