Phantom security notice

Phantom may show a "malicious dApp" warning. This is a false positive for new domains — our review with Blowfish (ticket #11666) is pending.

You can safely click "Proceed anyway" — SPLCreator only uses standard Solana programs.

How to create a Solana Token

Five steps, one transaction. Your own SPL token live on the Solana blockchain in under 2 minutes.

01

Connect your wallet

Install Phantom (phantom.app), Backpack or Solflare. Create a wallet and make sure you have ~0.15 SOL for network fees. Then click "Connect Wallet" in the top right corner.

  • Phantom, Backpack or Solflare
  • AutoConnect also works
  • ~0.15 SOL needed
02

Fill in token details

Give your token a name (max 32 characters) and a ticker symbol (max 10 characters, e.g. "MTK"). Optionally upload a logo — it is automatically cropped to 512×512 pixels and stored on IPFS.

  • Name max 32 characters
  • Symbol max 10 characters (e.g. SOL, BONK)
  • Logo auto-resized to 512×512
03

Set supply

Set the total number of tokens. For meme coins, 1 billion (1,000,000,000) is the standard. The number of decimals defaults to 9, just like SOL itself.

  • 1 billion popular for meme coins
  • 9 decimals = default (like SOL)
  • 0 decimals = no fractional tokens
04

Configure authorities

Choose whether to revoke mint authority (no new tokens can ever be minted) and freeze authority (token accounts cannot be frozen). Both are strongly recommended for trust.

  • Revoke mint = rug-proof
  • Revoke freeze = user trust
  • Both recommended
05

Sign & launch

Review all settings in the overview. You can see the exact costs in SOL. Click "Create Token" and approve the transaction in your wallet. Within 30 seconds your token is live on Solana.

  • Review all settings
  • Costs shown in SOL
  • Token live within 30 seconds

Frequently asked questions

How long does it take to create a Solana token?+
On average less than 2 minutes. Connecting your wallet and filling in the form takes about 1 minute, and the Solana transaction itself is confirmed within 5-30 seconds.
Can I mint more tokens later?+
Yes, but only if you did not revoke the mint authority at creation. If you revoked it (recommended for rug-proof tokens), the supply is permanent.
Does it work with Backpack or Solflare?+
Yes. SPLCreator supports Phantom, Backpack, Solflare and Torus wallets. On mobile you can use Phantom Mobile via the built-in browser.
What is a mint authority?+
The mint authority is the wallet address authorized to create new tokens. If you revoke it, no one can ever mint more — the supply is final. This increases buyer trust.
Are my private keys safe?+
Yes, completely. Your private key never leaves your browser. SPLCreator has no access to your wallet — the transaction is signed by your own wallet extension.
Can I try it for free on devnet?+
Absolutely. On devnet all actions are free with no real SOL needed. Perfect for testing before going to mainnet.
