You can find any token in Phantom by searching by name or by pasting its contract address. Searching by contract address is the safer option because it confirms you're interacting with the exact token you intend, not a counterfeit or similarly named impersonator.

Why use a contract address? #

• Avoid scams: Confirms you're adding the real token, not a counterfeit.
• Accuracy: Removes confusion from tokens with similar names.
• Security: Ensures you interact with the correct smart contract.

Search for a token by name #

Searching by name is useful for well-known tokens.

1. On the Home tab, select the search icon (magnifying glass) in the upper right.
2. Enter the token name.
3. Select the token from the results.

Search for a token by its contract address #

Searching by contract address is the safest option, especially for lesser-known tokens.

1. Get the token's contract address from a trusted source (such as CoinGecko, CoinMarketCap, or the project's official site).
2. On the Home tab in Phantom, select the search icon (magnifying glass) in the upper right.
3. Paste the contract address into the search bar.
4. Select the token.

Find a contract address on CoinGecko #

CoinGecko is a common source for verified contract addresses:

1. Go to coingecko.com.
2. Search for the token.
3. On the token's page, find the Contract section.
