Send & receive crypto in the MetaMask Chrome extension

Creating a wallet on MetaMask is just not enough if you do not know how to use the different features of the wallet. In case you are new to this wallet and planning to use it for safeguarding your crypto assets, then you must note that this wallet is extremely simple to use. Being a new user, you might be interested to know the process of sending and receiving crypto assets through it. If that is the case with you, I shall guide you through the process to do the same via the MetaMask Chrome extension.

In case you have not installed the MetaMask Chrome extension on your browser yet, then you need to make sure that you install it beforehand and then set up your wallet. Once you are done setting up your wallet, you can proceed with the steps that I am going to list below. These will help you fund your wallet as a new user and withdraw crypto assets from it as and when needed. 

Steps to receive funds in the MetaMask Browser extension 

To fund your MetaMask wallet, you must know the exact process. If you commit any mistake during the process, you might send crypto assets to the wrong wallet address and may not get them back ever. Hence, you must be very careful while following the steps that I am going to list below: 

1. Begin by opening the MetaMask Chrome extension or the app
2. After that, you can sign into your wallet if you have been locked out
3. Following this, select the "Receive" option
4. When you've shown your public address, copy it on your clipboard
5. Now, paste this address on the platform from where you're expecting crypto
6. Or, share this address with the sender
7. Cross-check the address once, fill out the amount to be received, and complete the transaction

If you think that you have followed all the steps, you will eventually receive crypto in your MetaMask wallet account. You can check the same by checking the MetaMask wallet balance.
