You can use your Web3 domain as a **crypto payment address in MetaMask**, so people can send funds to a readable domain name instead of copying a long wallet address.

# Connect Your Web3 Domain with Metamask 

Once set up, anyone who has **MetaMask** and the **Freename Web3 Resolver (Snap)** enabled can send crypto directly to your domain.

 

 

### What You Need (Requirements) ** **

- Install the MetaMask extension:[https://metamask.io/download](https://metamask.io/download)
- Install the Freename Web3 Resolver via MetaMask Snap:[https://snaps.metamask.io/snap/npm/freename-resolution-snap/](https://snaps.metamask.io/snap/npm/freename-resolution-snap/)
- Own a Web3 domain **minted on Polygon, Base, or another supported chain**
- Make sure you **fully control the destination wallet** (you must have complete access to that wallet address)

### Step-by-Step: Enable MetaMask Resolution for Your Domain

1. Open your Web3 domain portfolio page:  
   [https://freename.com/dashboard/user/portfolio/?t=WEB3_SLD](https://freename.com/dashboard/user/portfolio/?t=WEB3_SLD)
2. Find your domain and click **Manage**.
3. Go to the **Records** section.
4. In the **Wallet Address** area, click **Sign Transaction**.
5. Confirm the transaction in **MetaMask**.

After confirmation, wait **up to a few hours** for the change to become active.

### How Payments Work (Including Cross-Chain)

After setup, users with MetaMask + the Freename Resolver enabled can send funds to your **domain name**.

Important:

- This does **not** perform an automatic bridge.
- Funds are sent to the **same wallet address linked to your domain**, but on the **chain selected by the sender**.

*Example:*

- If your domain is minted on **Polygon**, someone can still send **USDC on Base** to your domain.
- You will receive the funds on **Base**, at the **same wallet address** associated with the domain.

## Safety Reminder

Before using your domain for payments, confirm that:

- The wallet address linked to the domain is **your own**
- You have **full access** to that wallet (so you can actually receive and manage the funds on each chain)

### FAQ

1. **Do I need MetaMask to receive payments to my domain?****  
   **You need MetaMask to complete the setup (“Sign Transaction”). After that, you can receive funds at the linked wallet address as usual.
2. **Do senders need MetaMask too?****  
   **Yes. Senders must have **MetaMask installed** and the **Freename Web3 Resolver (Snap)** enabled to send to a Web3 domain name.
3. **How long does it take before it works?****  
   **Typically **a few hours** after you sign and confirm the transaction.
4. **Does Freename automatically bridge funds between chains?****  
   **No. There is **no automatic bridge**. Funds arrive on the **chain used by the sender**, at the same wallet address.
5. **I get this MetaMask error: “No address resolution found for this name.” What can I do?****  
   **Make sure you:
   
   -    Completed **“Sign Transaction”** for that specific domain and confirmed it with your wallet
   
   -    Installed the **Freename Web3 Resolver (MetaMask Snap)** correctly in MetaMask
   
   - If the issue still happens after **a few hours**, try using a **different device** or a **different browser**.  
      If it persists, contact us at **support@freename.com**.
6. **What if I don’t control the destination wallet?****  
   ** Do not proceed. Always make sure the destination wallet address is yours and you have full access to it, otherwise you may lose access to incoming funds.
