# Bind Consumer to Anchor

To activate your bridge, there are several steps left to finish the whole process:

1. Fetch the Anchor address, pass it as a constructor parameter and deploy your application contract (should have implemented `BoolConsumerBase.sol`). An application contract example can be found [here](/evm-ecosystem/application-examples/helloweb3.sol.md).

2. Get the address of your application, and go back to your Dashboard. Click `View` and `Update` to have your application connected to a selected Anchor

3. You may encounter a misconfiguration error here, which implies that either your application does not implement `BoolConsumerBase.sol` or the anchor address in your application does not match the currently selected one.
4. Please refer to our repo at <https://github.com/boolnetwork/advanced-solidity-tutorials?tab=readme-ov-file#tokenbridgesol---a-burn--mint-erc20-token-bridge> and follow the steps in the section **TokenBridge-3** to configure remote anchors.
5. If everything goes perfectly, you can now send your first cross-chain message and monitor the lifecycle of a message on [BoolScan](https://bridge.boolscan.com/amt/?network=testnet) later.
