# Create Token
The **Create Token** tool lets you deploy your own SPL token on Solana in minutes — no coding required. Configure your token's core parameters, set advanced permissions, and add social metadata, all from a single form.
## Getting Started
**Before you begin:**
* Sign in to your account using the **Sign in / Sign up** button in the top-right corner. Login is done via **email**.
* A wallet is only needed later, in the **Ownership** field, to set the wallet that will own the token and receive any admin permissions you assign.
* Make sure your wallet holds enough **SOL** to cover the platform fee **and** the on-chain Solana network fees (see [Pricing](#pricing) below).
## Step-by-Step Guide
{% stepper %}
{% step %}
### Fill in Token Details
| Field | Description | Limit |
| ---------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------- |
| **Token Name** | The full name of your token (e.g. `Tsunammi Finance`). | Max **32 characters** |
| **Token Ticker** | Short symbol used on exchanges and explorers (e.g. `$TSNM`). | Max **6 characters** |
| **Decimals** | Precision of the token. Default is **9** — standard for Solana SPL tokens. Change only if you have a specific reason. | — |
| **Supply** | Total number of tokens to mint at creation. Set to **0** to mint later, or enter the desired initial supply. | — |
| **Token Logo** | Upload a **PNG / JPEG / JPG** image. Recommended size: **200×200 px**, max **2 MB**. | — |
| **Description** | Short description of your token. | Max **150 characters** |
{% hint style="info" %}
The Description limit is **150 characters**, not words. Keep it concise — it's stored in the token's on-chain metadata.
{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
### Set Ownership
In the **Ownership** field, connect the wallet that will own the token. This can be the same wallet you're signed in with, or a separate custody wallet.
* Click **Connect** to link your ownership wallet.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
### Configure Token Custom Settings
The **Token Custom Setting** panel (on the right) controls the permanent behavior of your token. Each option is a paid add-on — see [Pricing](#pricing).
{% hint style="warning" %}
Once the token is created, these settings **cannot be changed**.
{% endhint %}
| Setting | Fee | Default | What it does |
| ----------------- | --------- | ------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Fixed Supply** | +0.05 SOL | ON | Permanently disables minting of new tokens. Total supply becomes fixed and cannot be increased by anyone, including the creator. |
| **Revoke Freeze** | +0.05 SOL | ON | Removes the ability to freeze token accounts. Ensures holders can always transfer or sell their tokens without restrictions. |
| **Immutable** | +0.05 SOL | ON | Locks token metadata forever. Name, symbol, logo, and description cannot be changed after this action is executed. |
| **Social Links** | Free | OFF | Add social/community URLs to the token's on-chain metadata. |
**Recommendation:** Leaving **Fixed Supply**, **Revoke Freeze**, and **Immutable** all **ON** significantly improves your token's credibility with holders and aggregators (DEX screeners), and signals that the project cannot rug-pull via minting or metadata changes.
| Toggle state | Meaning |
| -------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Fixed Supply — ON** | No new tokens can ever be minted. Ideal for a hard-capped token. |
| **Fixed Supply — OFF** | Creator retains the ability to mint additional supply. |
| **Revoke Freeze — ON** *(recommended)* | Freeze authority is permanently revoked. Builds holder trust. |
| **Revoke Freeze — OFF** | Creator retains freeze authority over token accounts. |
| **Immutable — ON** | Metadata is permanently locked. Prevents post-launch metadata changes. |
| **Immutable — OFF** | Creator retains the ability to update metadata. |
| {% endstep %} | |
{% step %}
### Add Social Links *(optional)*
Enable the **Social Links** toggle to embed community metadata directly into your token's on-chain record. Supported platforms:
* **X (Twitter)**
* **Telegram**
* **Discord**
* **Website**
These links help traders and platforms identify your project and build trust. Social Links carry **no additional fee**.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
### Create the Token
Once all fields are filled in, click the **Create token** button at the bottom of the form.
* A wallet confirmation prompt will appear — review the transaction and approve it.
* After confirmation, your token will appear in your wallet.
* You can view and manage it from **Token Management → Token Activity History**.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}
## Pricing
Tsunammi offers one of the **lowest platform fees on Solana — from 0.1 SOL**. Your total cost is the platform fee plus any enabled custom settings, **plus on-chain Solana network fees**:
| Item | Cost |
| ----------------- | ----------- |
| Platform base fee | **0.1 SOL** |
| Fixed Supply | +0.05 SOL |
| Revoke Freeze | +0.05 SOL |
| Immutable | +0.05 SOL |
| Social Links | Free |
{% hint style="info" %}
The fees above are the **Tsunammi platform fee**. On top of that, you also pay **standard Solana on-chain network fees (account rent + transaction fee)**, which are charged separately by the network.
{% endhint %}
**Example totals (platform fee only, before network fees):**
* **Minimum** (all custom settings OFF): **0.1 SOL**
* **Recommended** (Fixed Supply + Revoke Freeze + Immutable ON): **0.25 SOL**
{% hint style="info" %}
All three trust toggles are **ON by default**, so the default platform fee is **0.25 SOL** — plus on-chain network fees on top. Turn a toggle OFF only if you deliberately want to keep that authority.
{% endhint %}
## Tips
* **Decimals:** Keep the default **9** unless you're building a specific use case (e.g. NFT-style tokens often use **0**).
* **Supply:** If you plan to do a PumpFun launch right after, you can leave supply at **0** — the launch flow handles initial supply.
* **Trust settings:** Turning **Fixed Supply + Revoke Freeze + Immutable** all ON maximizes credibility with holders and aggregators.
* **Logo:** Use a square image with a transparent or solid background. Low-quality logos hurt first impressions on DEX screeners.
## FAQ
Can I change the token name after creation?
Only if **Immutable** was set to OFF at creation. If Immutable is ON, metadata is permanently locked.
Can I mint more tokens later?
Only if **Fixed Supply** was set to OFF. With Fixed Supply ON, the total supply is permanently capped.
Where can I see my token after creation?
Go to **Token Management → Token Activity History** in the left sidebar. You can also view and manage the token directly inside your wallet.
How much does it cost to create a token?
The **platform fee** starts from **0.1 SOL**. Each of the three custom settings (Fixed Supply, Revoke Freeze, Immutable) adds **0.05 SOL**. With all three enabled — the default and recommended setup — the platform fee is **0.25 SOL**. On top of the platform fee, you also pay standard **Solana on-chain network fees (rent + transaction)**, charged separately by the network.
Do I need SOL in my wallet?
Yes. You need enough SOL to cover the platform fee (from 0.1 SOL) **and** the Solana on-chain network fees (account rent + transaction fee) on top of it.
