 # Understand token requirements in channels
 
- :octicons-tools-24:
+In Status, there are two kinds of channels: open and token-gated. If you want to [join a token-gated channel][join-a-channel], you need to meet the token requirements. To maintain access to a token-gated channel, hold the necessary tokens at all times.
 
-!!! note ""
- We're working on this content.
+For example, a community owner can set up owning 15 SNT as a requirement to join a channel. In that case, you need a minimum of 15 SNT in your [Status Wallet][status-wallet-your-quick-start-guide] to join that channel.
+
+There are three kinds of tokens in the Status app: assets, collectibles and ENS (Ethereum Name Service) names. Community owners can set up any combination of these tokens as a requirement to join a channel.
+
+!!! note
+ When you join a token-gated channel, the token or tokens required to join are not transferred to anyone. They are used for verification purposes only, and they remain in your possession and wallet.
+
+## If you meet the requirements
+
+Before you join a token-gated channel, the Status app automatically checks if you meet the channel requirements. If you meet the requirements, the option to join the channel is available.
+
+!!! note
+ If the community owner has set [manual approval][manage-community-join-requests] option for the channel, you still need the owner's approval to join.
+
+## If you don't meet the token requirements
+
+If the request option is unavailable, it means that you don't meet the token requirements to join a channel in the Status app. To join the channel, you must have the required token amount. To buy the required tokens, read [Buy crypto][buy-crypto].
