# Get Native Token

{% hint style="info" %}
If you already have native tokens in your wallet, proceed to [Connect your wallet to EISEN](/eisen-finance/user-guide/connecting-wallet/connect-your-wallet-to-eisen.md) to connect your wallet.
{% endhint %}

To swap crypto assets on the Polygon or Evmos network, you will need native tokens to pay a gas fee. There are two ways in which you can get them in your wallet 

(1) Transferring Native token from CEX to your wallet

(2) Using the bridge.

If you have a **CEX account**, you can buy NATIVE tokens in CEX and **transfer** them to your wallet.

Below are the steps to transfer Native tokens from a CEX to your self-custodial wallet.

(1) Register an account on the CEX's official website or the app.

(2) **Verify** your identity & **secure** your CEX account.&#x20;

* You are typically required to have a **government-issued identification document.**&#x20;
* For asset security, you'd better enable **Two-step Verification.**

(3) Use **fiat** to **buy USDT.**

* You can use the service provided by the CEX which supports **OTC trading** or use the **financial service platform**(Paypal, or Robinhood, available for US residents) that supports funding via either your bank account or credit card.&#x20;

(4) **Transfer** your **USDT** purchased by fiat to the CEX that supports Evmos trading in the spot market.

* If the CEX that you're using supports both purchasing USDT via fiat and NATIVE-USDT trading pair, then you can trade in the same platform and **don't need to transfer** to another platform that supports Evmos.

(5) **Buy Native tokens** in the spot market with stable coins.

(6) **Transfer** Native tokens from your CEX wallet to your self-custodial wallet.

{% tab title="(2) Bridge" %}
If you have crypto assets in your wallet already but on another chain, you can buy **wrapped tokens** on that chain and transfer them to the Polygon or Evmos chain by using **bridge service.**
