# Deploy contracts using Remix

This article shows how to deploy smart contract into smartBCH testnet using Remix IDE.

Step 1, open [Remix IDE](http://remix.ethereum.org/) in your browser:

Step 2, chose an environment. We can use MetaMask by selecting "Injected Web3" or connect to node directly by selecting "Web3 Provider". Select "Injected Web3" to connect to MetaMask:
