# How import a wallet to your MetaMask account?
In order to import an existing wallet to a MetaMask account, follow these simple step-by-step instructions. You will need to install the MetaMask extension for your favorite browser, import a wallet using private key or JSON file and add PBL tokens to the list.
### Step 1. Install the MetaMask extension
1.Open [https://metamask.io](https://metamask.io/) website or search for “Metamask extension” in your favorite browser (you can install Metamask for [Chrome](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/nkbihfbeogaeaoehlefnkodbefgpgknn), [Firefox](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ether-metamask/) and [Opera](https://addons.opera.com/en/extensions/details/metamask/) browsers).
2.Click **Add to Chrome** to install MetaMask as Google Chrome extension (same as for other browsers).
3.Click **Add Extension**.
 
That’s it! You have successfully installed the MetaMask extension. Now, it is time to add your existing cryptocurrency wallet.
### Step 2. Import a wallet to MetaMask
There are two ways how to export an existing account. If you have a seed words (mnemonic phrase) you can export your wallet straight away:
1. Click on the icon in the upper right corner to open MetaMask extension, read and accept the terms. Click **Continue**.
2. Click **Import With Seed Phrase**.
3. Enter your wallets seed phrase (mnemonic phrase).
4. Enter a strong password.
5. Click **Import**.
  
You have successfully imported your wallet to MetaMask!
### Alternative option — import a wallet using a private key or JSON file
If you have an existing wallet address but you don’t have a mnemonic phrase, you can import your wallet address to MetaMask using a private key or JSON file.
1. After creating an account, click on the“**Account**” button in the upper right corner (see screenshots below).
2. Click **Import account**.
3. Select preferred entry type. If you want to import an account using your wallet’s private key, simply paste your private key string and click **Import**.
  
That’s it! You have successfully imported your cryptocurrency wallet to your MetaMask account.
