# Faucet

Testing on the **XRPL EVM Sidechain** requires test XRP to pay transaction fees and interact with smart contracts. This page lists the faucets available for **Testnet** and **Devnet**.

### Fund Your XRPL Testnet Account

Before bridging from XRPL Testnet to XRPL EVM Testnet, you **must** fund an XRPL Testnet account with test XRP. One convenient option is:

- **[XRPL MetaMask Snap](https://snap.xrplevm.org)**
  - Install the Snap in MetaMask.
  - Use its built-in faucet or XRPL faucets it supports to fund your XRPL Testnet account.


Once your XRPL Testnet account is funded, use [SquidRouter](https://testnet.xrpl.squidrouter.com/) to move assets to XRPL EVM Testnet.

Devnet
## Devnet Faucet

- **[XRPL EVM Faucet](https://faucet.xrplevm.org)**
  - The same faucet used for Testnet also supports **Devnet**. Select the Devnet network before requesting funds.


Once funded, you can verify your balance on the [XRPL EVM Devnet Explorer](https://explorer.devnet.xrplevm.org).

## Manual Bridging with XRPL Payment Memos

For advanced use cases or custom dApp integrations, you can trigger an interchain transfer by sending a **Payment transaction** on XRPL with specific memos (via axelar [**gpm**](https://docs.axelar.dev/dev/general-message-passing/overview/)). Detailed instructions on crafting these memos and handling cross-chain requests can be found in the [Send XRP, IOUs and ERC20s Guide](/pages/developers/interacting-with-evm/advanced-guides/cross-chain-transactions/send-tokens) and [Send Cross-Chain Messages guide](/pages/developers/interacting-with-evm/advanced-guides/cross-chain-transactions/send-messages).
