Note: The amount you need to lock should be equal to or greater than the amount needed for the purchase and should be available in your wallet.\

7\. You can either make the payment from your existing wallet balance or purchase more ERC tokens. Here's a [guide](/products/chalk/create-nft-collection/buy-zcn-for-nft-via-erc-token.md) to help you with this process.
