What is POA Network Core?

POA Network Core is an EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine) compatible blockchain network. Any EVM wallet — MetaMask, Rabby, OKX Wallet, Trust Wallet, Coinbase Wallet — can connect and transact on POA Network Core once you add the network configuration.

Why do you need to add POA Network Core to your wallet?

MetaMask and most wallets only come pre-configured with Ethereum Mainnet. To transact, swap tokens, or use dApps on POA Network Core, you need to add the network first. Entering an incorrect Chain ID or RPC can put your assets at risk. Use the "Add to wallet" button above — data sourced directly from chainid.network, the canonical Ethereum chain registry.

How to add POA Network Core to your wallet

  1. 1

    Click Add to wallet

    Press the "Add to wallet" button above. MetaMask, OKX Wallet, Rabby Wallet or Trust Wallet will show a popup asking you to confirm adding the POA Network Core network.

  2. 2

    Confirm in your wallet

    Your wallet shows the POA Network Core network details: Chain ID 99, native token POA. Verify the Chain ID is correct, then click "Approve" or "Add Network".

  3. 3

    Switch to the new network

    After confirming, your wallet automatically switches to POA Network Core. You can start transacting right away — you will need POA to pay gas fees.

Important notice

  • Always verify Chain ID 99 before confirming — attackers sometimes create fake networks with similar names but different Chain IDs
  • You need POA tokens in your wallet to pay gas fees for transactions on POA Network Core
  • Data on this page is sourced from chainid.network — the community-verified Ethereum chain registry
  • If the "Add to wallet" button doesn't work, your wallet may not support wallet_addEthereumChain — add the network manually using the details below

Frequently asked questions

Is it safe to add POA Network Core to MetaMask?
Yes, if you use the "Add to wallet" button on this page. Data is sourced from chainid.network — the community-audited Ethereum registry. Adding a network does not expose your private key or grant any permissions to the dApp.
What is POA Network Core Chain ID?
The Chain ID of POA Network Core is 99. This unique number identifies the network and prevents MetaMask and other EVM wallets from mixing up transactions across different chains.
Do I need POA tokens to use POA Network Core?
Yes. Every transaction on POA Network Core requires POA to pay gas fees. You can purchase POA on exchanges and bridge it to POA Network Core, or use a faucet if this is a testnet.
What is the POA Network Core RPC endpoint?
An RPC endpoint is the server address your wallet uses to communicate with the POA Network Core blockchain — sending transactions, reading balances, and checking state. One popular POA Network Core RPC is https://core.poa.network. This page shows live latency for each RPC so you can pick the fastest one.
My wallet says POA Network Core already exists when I click Add — what do I do?
That's completely normal. If POA Network Core is already in your wallet, it will simply switch to that network instead of adding a duplicate — no error or conflict.
I added POA Network Core but the network won't load — what's wrong?
The most common cause is a broken or overloaded RPC endpoint. Your wallet uses RPC to connect to the blockchain — if the RPC is down, the network won't load even if it was added correctly. Fix: copy a different RPC from the list above (prefer green low-latency ones), then go to Settings → Networks in your wallet and replace the old RPC with the new one. Watch the tutorial video above for step-by-step instructions on updating your RPC.
