## Obtaining Testnet Tokens

DOT are required to make transactions on the Polkadot network. Tokens on Polkadot's Testnets like
Paseo, Westend and Rococo do not have any value besides allowing you to experiment with the features
on the network.

Tokens for each testnet described below can be obtained [**here**](https://faucet.polkadot.io/).

### Getting Tokens on the Paseo Testnet

The Paseo testnet mirrors the Polkadot runtime and it is maintained by the community. To get Paseo
tokens (PAS) you can use the web-based
[Paseo faucet](https://paritytech.github.io/polkadot-testnet-faucet/paseo). The PAS tokens has the
same Planck conversion as Polkadot.

### Getting Tokens on the Westend Testnet

Polkadot's testnet is called [Westend](../maintain/maintain-networks.md#westend-test-network) and
you can obtain its native tokens (called Westies!) by posting `!drip <WESTEND_ADDRESS>` in the
Matrix chatroom [#westend_faucet:matrix.org](https://matrix.to/#/#westend_faucet:matrix.org). Your
account will be credited with 1 WND by default. You can also specify to get more tokens by

Another way is to use our web-based

You can also earn WNDs as rewards by [becoming a validator](learn-validator.md) on Westend network.

### Getting Tokens on the Rococo Testnet

Rococo is a parachain testnet. Tokens are given directly to teams working on parachains or exploring
the [cross consensus](learn-xcm.md) message-passing aspects of this testnet. General users can
obtain ROC by posting `!drip <ROCOCO_ADDRESS>` in the Matrix chatroom
