Input network details as follows:

Network Name: BSC Mainnet

New RPC URL: https://bsc-dataseed1.binance.org/ or https://bsc-dataseed2.binance.org/​

You can toggle between desired networks by clicking on top of your wallet.

In order to initiate and pay for any transaction on BSC you need to have BNB in your wallet, much like ETH on Ethereum blockchain
