# Connect wallet to Beamswap

## Prerequisites

To use the Beamswap platform, you need a digital wallet installed on your web browser.

If you don't have one yet, you can download and install the wallet of your choice here:

* [MetaMask](https://metamask.io/download/)
* [Talisman](https://www.talisman.xyz/)
* [Subwallet](https://subwallet.app/)
* [Coinbase Wallet](https://www.coinbase.com/wallet)

## Connect wallet

Once your wallet is installed and configured, head over to the Beamswap platform by clicking [here](https://app.beamswap.io/exchange/swap).
