ℹ️ What your wallet will ask you to confirm (and why)

Creating a real SPL token is a multi-step on-chain process, so your wallet will prompt you a few times. This is normal — each prompt corresponds to one discrete, visible step:

  1. Fund Arweave upload — one small SOL transfer to the Irys node, only if the node's balance for your wallet is too low. Shown amount should match the ~KB size of your logo + metadata.
  2. Sign upload receipts — two short message signatures (logo + metadata). No SOL is spent on these. They may look opaque in the wallet, but they are only Arweave upload receipts.
  3. Create the token mint — one Solana transaction that creates the mint account, writes the on-chain metadata, and pays a tiny priority fee for faster inclusion.
  4. Mint the initial supply — one Solana transaction that opens your token account and credits it with the initial supply. If you selected authority revocation, the revoke instructions are included in this same transaction.

Only approve a prompt if the amounts and destination match what MintLab shows above. MintLab will never ask you to transfer large amounts of SOL to an unknown address — the only SOL transfers should be: the small Arweave funding, on-chain rent for the mint + token account, and Solana network fees.

FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions

What is an SPL Token?

A token created on Solana's SPL standard, equivalent to Ethereum's ERC-20.

What does Revoke Mint Authority mean?

Removes the ability to mint new tokens after deploy. Supply becomes fixed and immutable.

What does Revoke Freeze Authority mean?

Prevents anyone (including the creator) from freezing token accounts. Maximum decentralization.

How much does it cost to create a token on Solana?

On Mainnet, expect on the order of 0.024 SOL plus priority fees; Arweave upload is paid from your wallet through Irys. Always double-check Phantom is on Mainnet before signing.

How do metadata work on MintLab?

MintLab handles everything automatically. Upload your logo and, optionally, a short description. The system builds the metadata and saves it on Arweave permanently. No technical hosting steps on your side.

Do I have to host metadata myself?

No. MintLab includes permanent Arweave storage in the fee (about 0.010 SOL on top of deploy). Your logo and metadata stay online without a separate hosting bill.

Can I use IPFS instead of Arweave?

MintLab uses Arweave for permanent persistence. IPFS is not supported because it usually requires manual pinning and ongoing upkeep.

How much does storage cost?

About 0.010 SOL extra on top of the token deploy (total around 0.024 SOL before optional revokes). It’s a one-time payment — no recurring storage fee from MintLab for that bundle.

Can I skip the logo or description?

On this form, Token Logo is required so wallets and explorers can show your brand. Token Description is optional.

What's the difference between Devnet and Mainnet?

Devnet is a test network with free SOL for experimenting. Mainnet is the live network where tokens have value and you pay fees in real SOL.

Can I modify supply or decimals after creation?

No, supply and decimals are immutable after the mint is deployed. Choose carefully.
