# How to create a MetaMask Wallet?
MetaMask is the crypto wallet and gateway to blockchain applications and it is trusted by more than 21 million users worldwide and it is free and secure to use.
You can get your META NANOs and Alpha Passes by exchanging them with crypto currency, in this case Ether (ETH) or HEROcoin (PLAY) To use Ether, you need a wallet. This is a place where you can keep your money and make transactions. We’ll be using MetaMask, which can be installed on your web browser as an extension. We'll also be using Google Chrome throughout this tutorial. MetaMask is available on other browsers, but just know we'll be using Chrome.
