# How To Buy

**Create a Wallet**

Step 1: Visit <https://phantom.app/download> and select your browser.

Step 2: Follow the steps in your respective extension store to add the Phantom wallet extension to your browser. After installing, you should see the Phantom open in a new tab.

**Get Some SOL**

Have SOL in your wallet to switch to $MONKEY. If you don’t have any SOL, you can buy directly on Phantom, transfer from another wallet, or buy on another exchange and send it to your wallet.

**Go to Raydium**

Connect to Raydium. Go to <https://raydium.io/swap> in google chrome or on the browser inside your Phantom app. Connect your wallet. Paste the $MONKEY token address into Raydium, select Monkey, and confirm. When Phantom prompts you for a wallet signature, sign.

**Switch SOL for $MONKEY**

Switch SOL for $MONKEY. We have ZERO taxes so you don’t need to worry about buying with a specific slippage, although you may need to use slippage during times of market volatility.
