# Getting Started

To enter the Beamswap DeFi hub, you need to connect your crypto wallet. Once you’re connected to the platform, you can start utilizing its features and services.

## Connect wallet to Beamswap

MetaMask by default only supports the Ethereum network. However, when you connect MetaMask to Beamswap, it will automatically configure your MetaMask to work with Moonbeam. \
\
Moonbeam requires $GLMR to pay for the gas fees for executing transactions on the network.

Beamswap supports the following wallets:

* MetaMask
* NovaWallet
* Talisman
* Subwallet
* Coinbase Wallet

To connect, go to <https://app.beamswap.io/exchange/swap>.

In the top right corner of the platform, click “Connect Wallet”.
