Step 1
Go to opensea.io from your google chrome web browser. On the Right hand corner you will see an icon in the shape of a wallet, click on it. The most popular wallet for buying NFT’s is MetaMask, so that will be our choice. You will see the Install MetaMask chrome extension in the link: https://metamask.io/download/.

Step 2
Once the Extension is installed it will take you to the MetaMask website where you will have to open a wallet. Click on create a wallet. All you will need is a password. Now you have a wallet!

Step 3
You will be able to buy our NFT’s, by paying with Ethereum, so that what you will need to add into your wallet. Click on BUY on the main page of your wallet. You will get two choices Wyre and Transak, through which you will be able to top up your wallet using your debit or credit card/Apple Pay/ACH Transfer.

Step 4
Choose Wyre and buy the amount needed either by using your debit card or Apple Pay. The cost will be about $60 per NFT, so that’s the amount in dollars you will need to buy ETH with. Click on “I authorise Wyre to debit my account indicated for the amount above on today’s date, and I agree to Wyre’s User Agreement”. After that you will be able to enter your card details and BUY ETH.

Step 5
Now that you have ETH on your MetaMask wallet you are all set to buy NFTs! Go back to the opeansea.io website, and press on the puzzle icon on the right hand corner of your google chrome. It will show you all the google extensions you have. Press on MetaMask and now you can see your wallet (probably called Account 1). There you will see 3 dots that will open a menu bar. Press on “connected websites” > press on manually connect to current site > next > connect (YOU MIGHT BE ALREADY AUTOMATICALLY CONNECTED)

Step 6
Now your wallet extension is connected to opens.io, great! You can check that it is actually connected in the following link: https://opensea.io/account.

Step 7
You are all set, you now have both a MetaMask and an OpenSea account. Go to our OpenSea link here: https://opensea.io/AKIVA_Neuroverse choose your favourite character and press on BUY NOW. You would need to authenticate the transaction first. Open your MetaMask chrome extension by pressing on the puzzle button again and press SIGN.

Step 8
Now that you authenticated your transaction, you are all set to buy the NFT. Press the “By checking this box, I agree to OpenSea’s Terms of Service” Icon and then CHECKOUT. Press CONTINUE and YAY! You have successfully bought your first NFT.
