# Get CRC20 Tokens

The native tokens of the Polygon chain are on **CRC20**. You will be able to purchase CRC20 Tokens directly on common exchanges, such as crypto.com, Binance, or Bybit.

To do most things on the Polygon chain, you will need to pay gas fees, which come in the form of MATIC.

Therefore, to get started you should buy MATIC tokens on one of the exchanges and send it to your DeFi wallet.
