For improving the current transfer during the electrolytic metallization of workpieces, a method is proposed: (a) providing a metal depositing apparatus, in which the workpiece, at least one anodeand a metal deposition electrolyte AE are arranged and which has a device for electric current generationand at least one current feeding devicewith in each case at least one electrical contact elementfor making electrical contact with the workpiece; (b) bringing the at least one electrical contact elementinto contact with the workpiece; and (c) feeding electric current to the workpiece via the at least one electrical contact elementin order that the deposition metal deposits on the workpiece. Before method step (b), in a further method step (d), deposition metal is deposited on the at least one electrical contact element
