Testnet Token Faucet

A faucet is a service that distributes small amounts of testnet tokens so developers and users can experiment on testnet. There are currently two testnet faucets:

Supported tokens

The Developer Portal Faucet provides only testnet native tokens, while the Testnet Faucet supports a wide range of fungible tokens, including NEAR, Tether USD, USD Coin, Ether, and many others.

The faucets are not working?

If any of the faucets is not working, please report it on our NEAR Telegram Channel or open an issue in our NEAR GitHub repository.


Getting Testnet tokens​

If you have a NEAR testnet account and need tokens to experiment, test, and build on the NEAR blockchain, follow these simple steps to get free tokens:

  1. Open the Developer Portal Faucet or Testnet Faucet website

Faucet Main page of Testnet Faucet

  1. Fill out the information:
    • Desired token (NEAR by default)
    • Wallet address (e.g., myaccount.testnet)
    • Amount
  2. Click Request and receive your Tokens
    • The faucet will provide a link with the token transaction.

Getting Fungible Tokens​

Another way to get fungible tokens on testnet is through the testnet version of ref finance

There, you can swap testnet NEAR for other fungible tokens, such as testnet USDC, testnet USDT, testnet DAI, and others

Fungible Tokens on Ref Finance

Please notice that tokens on testnet might not hold the same rate as on mainnet (e.g. 1 USDC might not exchange to the same amount of NEAR as on mainnet), furthermore, liquidity on testnet might be very low
