# Coin Faucet

## Faucet

The Faucet feature allows you to request a small amount of MNEE tokens (sandbox) for testing and development purposes. This section provides a simple way to receive tokens using the [MNEE CLI](/dev-tools/mnee-cli.md).

### 1. Make sure you have created a Developer Account.

### 2. Install the [MNEE CLI](/dev-tools/mnee-cli.md)

```bash
npm i -g @mnee/cli
```

### 3. Create a MNEE *<mark style="color:orange;">Sandbox</mark>* Wallet

```bash
mnee create
```

{% hint style="warning" %}
Be sure to select "Sandbox"
{% endhint %}

### 4. Connect to the Dev Portal

```bash
mnee login
```

### 4. Request tokens

```bash
mnee faucet
```

### 6. Check your balance

```bash
mnee balance
```

{% hint style="success" %}
At this point you should have tokens to work with in the Sandbox [CLI](/dev-tools/mnee-cli.md) and [SDK](/mnee-sdk/config.md) environments. Go forth and change the world!
{% endhint %}

### Usage Guidelines

* Rate Limiting: You can request tokens once every 24 hours based on the API key used.
* Amount: Each request will send 10 MNEE tokens
