# Add a NFT / token requirement

## Creating a Token Gate

A token gate will require users to own a specific NFT or crypto token before purchasing a ticket. tokenproof has some of the most advanced token-gating capabilities on the market with a wide range of configuration options.

### 1. Enable "Restricted Availability"

Click the **Restricted Availability** toggle on the ticket you'd like to add token gating to.

The following shared contracts are supported:

* POAP
* OpenSea Storefront

#### **Enter Token Manually**

If your token doesn't appear in the search results, you can enter it manually by clicking **Add Manually**.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Currently **POAPs**, **OpenSea Shared Storefront** collections, and **Nifty Gateway** collections must be entered manually. Support for searching these contracts is coming soon.
{% endhint %}

### 5. Define Minimum Quantity

Define the number of tokens a user is required to hold to be eligible for this ticket type.
