# add manta pacific to metamask

Add Manta Pacific as a custom network in MetaMask so your wallet can display balances, sign transactions, and connect to Manta Pacific apps. This page shows the fields to verify from official sources and the checks to run before bridging or transacting.

## Before you start

You need:

* MetaMask Extension or MetaMask Mobile installed.
* The wallet account you plan to use with Manta Pacific.
* Official Manta Pacific network details from the current Manta documentation, the official app prompt, or another official Manta-maintained source.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Do not copy network settings from screenshots, social posts, or third-party lists unless you can verify them against an official source. RPC URLs and explorer URLs can change.
{% endhint %}

For general wallet setup, see the [wallet guide](file:///2078213/guides/wallet-guide.md). If you are adding the network before moving ETH, continue with [bridge ETH to Manta Pacific](file:///2078213/guides/bridge-eth-to-manta-pacific.md) after the sanity check below.

## Network fields

When MetaMask asks for custom network details, fill the fields from official Manta Pacific sources:

| MetaMask field     | What to enter                                                                   |
| ------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Network name       | Manta Pacific, or the exact name shown by the official source                   |
| New RPC URL        | Official Manta Pacific RPC endpoint                                             |
| Chain ID           | Official Manta Pacific chain ID                                                 |
| Currency symbol    | Official native gas token symbol, typically ETH if shown by the official source |
| Block explorer URL | Official Manta Pacific block explorer URL                                       |

MetaMask explains the custom network flow in its [custom network guide](https://support.metamask.io/configure/networks/how-to-add-a-custom-network-rpc/). ETH is used to pay gas on EVM networks; ethereum.org has a concise overview of [gas and transaction fees](https://ethereum.org/developers/docs/gas/).

## Add the network in MetaMask Extension

1. Open MetaMask.
2. Select the network dropdown at the top of the wallet.
3. Choose **Add network**.
4. If Manta Pacific appears in MetaMask's network list, review the details against the official Manta source before approving.
5. If it does not appear, choose **Add a network manually**.
6. Enter the network fields from the table above.
7. Select **Save**.
8. Switch to Manta Pacific from the network dropdown.

## Add the network in MetaMask Mobile

1. Open MetaMask Mobile.
2. Tap the network selector at the top of the wallet.
3. Choose **Add network**.
4. Open the **Custom networks** tab if Manta Pacific is not already listed.
5. Enter the official network name, RPC URL, chain ID, currency symbol, and explorer URL.
6. Tap **Add** or **Save**.
7. Switch to Manta Pacific.

## Sanity check

After saving the network, verify the setup before sending funds:

1. Confirm MetaMask shows **Manta Pacific** as the active network.
2. Confirm the account address is the same address you use on Ethereum mainnet. Manta Pacific is EVM-compatible, so the address format should match your Ethereum account.
3. Confirm the gas token display matches the official network details.
4. Open the configured block explorer from MetaMask and check that it loads the expected Manta Pacific explorer.
5. If you already have funds on Manta Pacific, confirm the balance appears. If not, bridge first and wait for the deposit transaction to complete.

{% hint style="info" %}
Adding the network only configures MetaMask. It does not bridge assets, grant token approvals, or move funds between Ethereum and Manta Pacific.
{% endhint %}

## Troubleshooting

If MetaMask rejects the network details, re-check the chain ID and RPC URL for extra spaces or outdated values. If the network saves but balances do not load, try a different official RPC endpoint if one is provided, then refresh MetaMask.

If a bridge or dapp asks you to switch networks, compare the requested chain ID with the official Manta Pacific chain ID before approving. Manta Pacific uses OP Stack execution, so Ethereum-style signing and gas behavior will feel familiar, but you should still verify live network details before approving transactions; the [OP Stack protocol docs](https://docs.optimism.io/op-stack/protocol/getting-started) provide background on the stack used by OP Stack chains.
