Let me try to help you. First, going to link to a post with a useful picture, then display the Picture so it can help, and gives the creator Credit.
The second picture in this post is what you want first:
If you’re trying to open a portal to another planet, this is useful. Looking at your Screenshot, I can see you’re on Cep Merika, and trying to open a portal to Till.
Look at the picture above, and you’ll see a Line going from Delta Cancret to Cep Merika with the Number 6, then a line from Delta Cancret to Till with the Number 4.
This means opening a portal from Cep Merika to Till, will be both Numbers Combined, 10. What do those number means? They are Blinksecs. To create a portal, you’ll have to follow the lines, and add all the Blinksec numbers between them.
Now then, now that you know the Blinksec Distance between the two places, you need another Picture. A very useful one Portal Seekers have in their Discord, but not in their post for some reason. (You should know this before buying the Token which when you put in tells you the Distance too, to advoid the situation you are in right now.)
This is the Second Picture:
This picture, as shown at the top, lists the different Blinksec Distances, and how many Conduits it needs at the minimum, and How much it will both cost to open the portal, and how many shards it will eat up per hour.
Note, How many shards eaten per hour is based on the SIZE of the portal, and not the DISTANCE of the portal. Try to have the smallest possible size to save shards.
Now, lets look at your situation. You’re trying to open a portal 10 Blinksecs away. So you need at least 6 Conduits.
When you got that Portal Token, you went and bought it from a 1x3 Portal I’m guessing. Sorry, but you bought the wrong kind. Knowing now you need 6 Conduits Minimum. You’ll need to find a 2x3, or 1x6, Portal, and buy/get the Token from that to use it.
Also note, both Portals have to be the same size and shape. Can’t stick a 1x6 portal token into a 2x3 portal, even if both have the same number of Conduits.
