*Network RPC for Metamask*

Come back to the Beyond Street Cred Mint Section. Look for the NFT Minting section at the top.

Choose “Polygon” network inside your Metamask and click the “Connect Wallet” button. Metamask will open an authorization window to connect. Click “Next” to move forward and then click “Connect” inside your Metamask window. The “Connect Wallet” button will darken and your wallet ID will populate when successfully connected.

Next go and choose your quantity “QTY” or amount of NFTs you want to Mint.

Once you have input a quantity, choose which NFT you would like to Mint by clicking “Still Image”, “Video NFT” or “Super Street Cred Coin”.

A window will pop-up asking for you to “Approve WETH” which grants your wallet access to our Smart Contract. This is a gas free, one-time approval. It cost nothing to perform this. Metamask will open asking for you to sign as well. Do it. You will see a green check mark next to “Approve WETH” when successful.

Next the same window will have a “Buy Token” button with the amount of your purchase listed in it. Click it to finalize your mint. Metamask will open again asking for your to sign the transaction. Click it and your
