2. Copy the MetaMask Wallet Address
Open your MetaMask Wallet extension.
Enter the password and Unlock it.
Click just above your BNB balance to copy your MetaMask address.
3. Click Fiat and Spot/ Funding Wallet on Binance
Now, head to Binance.
Type your credentials to get logged in.
Once you are logged in, click Wallet.
You will be able to see multiple options.

Choosing the Network is a very crucial step in the withdrawal process.
If you have chosen any other network that doesn’t support BNB, you will lose your asset.
So, ensure that you are in BSC BNB Smart Chain (BEP20).

Once you have got the Withdrawal Request Submitted notification, you can go ahead and check in the Recent Withdrawal Section.
Just scroll down to reach the Recent Withdrawal Section on the Withdrawal window page.

FAQs
1. How to fix “BNB balance doesn’t show in MetaMask”?
MetaMask only shows the BNB balance if you have added the BSC network to it. MetaMask is primarily used to send, receive, or store Ethereum (ETH). However, it can also be used to send, receive, or store as well.
To receive, store, or send BNB on MetaMask, you need to manually add the BSC network details. You can add the network details by clicking the Add Network button.
2. I did not receive my BNB from Binance?
If you have not received your BNB after 60 minutes of transfer, you need to check whether you have added the Binance Smart Chain (BSC) to your MetaMask wallet.
If not, you need to add it. Then, only MetaMask will show your BNB balance.
