Unable to See Tokens aka How to Add a Custom Token

Adding a new token / sending custom tokens / checking balance of tokens / seeing custom token / ERC-20

Any ERC-20 token can be added to your local MEW interface by following these instructions.

Make sure it isn't already in the list:

1. Click the Orange "Show All Tokens" Button.

2. Scroll and click the token you want to load, where it says "Click to Load". You can also use cmd/ctrl+f to search for a token on the list more quickly.

3. If you have a balance you won't have to load it again—it will automatically load in the future.

Removing Custom Tokens

To remove a custom token, click the little ( - ) icon next to your token. This will remove it from the interface. It is not deleting or removing the tokens themselves. They are still safely in your wallet, we promise.
