Now, we have to deploy our smart contract on Amoy, the Polygon testnet. Not only does it cost money (e.g., gas fees) to deploy a smart contract on Polygon mainnet, but the contract is immutable and can't be changed once deployed. Therefore, it's best to deploy your smart contract to the testnet first.

- Open Metamask. Click on the network dropdown menu (set to **Ethereum Mainnet** by default) and click on the **Add Network** button. MaticVigil provides a public endpoint and is rate-limited. Therefore, most developers use a free blockchain provider like [Alchemy](https://docs.alchemy.com/docs/how-to-add-polygon-to-metamask) or [Quicknode](https://www.quicknode.com/guides/smart-contract-development/how-to-deploy-a-smart-contract-on-maticpolygon#setting-up-metamask-with-polygon-node) to have a dedicated RPC endpoint with faster throughput AKA computing units per second (CUPs). You need to create a free account to get your private API key from one of these providers to put into the dedicated RPC endpoint URL below.
