# Volta Token (VT)
Volta Tokens are [utility tokens](/legacy-documentation/ew-dos-technology-components-2023/trust-layer-energy-web-chain/energy-web-token.md#what-is-a-utility-token) specifically for [The Energy Web's Volta Test Network](/legacy-documentation/ew-dos-technology-components-2023/trust-layer-energy-web-chain/ewc-guides-and-tutorials/testnet-and-mainnet.md#developing-on-volta-test-network). Volta tokens have no real value. You will need Volta Tokens in your digital wallet (we recommend using [MetaMask](https://metamask.io)) if you want to make transactions or use applications that are deployed on the Volta network, such as [Switchboard](broken://pages/-Mdw3Vke0uRCbFguK6gD#switchboard) or the [Staking beta site. ](https://stake.energyweb.org/staking?org=energyweb.iam.ewc)
## Get Tokens
### Access your wallet
If you don't have MetaMask wallet, you can [install the browser extension here.](https://metamask.io/) Once you're in MetaMask, connect to the Volta Test network. For directions on how to do this, go [here. ](/legacy-documentation/ew-dos-technology-components-2023/trust-layer-energy-web-chain/ewc-guides-and-tutorials/connect-to-energy-web-chain-main-network-with-metamash.md)
There are two ways to get Volta tokens:
### Get Tokens from the Volta Faucet
Go to and enter your wallet address to get a token. Make sure you perform the “I am not a robot” challenge before you request a token, otherwise you will get an error.
### Request Tokens on Discord
Go to the [volta-faucet channel ](https://discord.com/channels/706103009205288990/865526109348036618)on Energy Web’s discord server and paste your wallet address in the chat box.
If your wallet is already connected to the Volta network, you will see your token balance in your wallet. For instructions on how to connect your MetaMask to the Volta Test Network, go [here.](/legacy-documentation/ew-dos-technology-components-2023/trust-layer-energy-web-chain/ewc-guides-and-tutorials/connect-to-energy-web-chain-main-network-with-metamash.md#to-connect-to-the-volta-test-network)

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://docs.energyweb.org/legacy-documentation/community-resources/using-the-energy-web-chain/volta-testnet-token.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
