How much does it cost to create a Solana token?
On this site, creating a Solana token costs a flat 0.1 SOL base fee, which already includes the Solana network rent, on-chain metadata and logo hosting. Optional protections add +0.1 SOL each, and the total is capped at 0.5 SOL. There are no subscriptions and no hidden charges. At the current SOL price that base fee is roughly $7.12.
The cost of creating a Solana token has two parts: the unavoidable network cost, and the tool's service fee. Good tools roll both into one transparent number shown before you sign. Here is exactly what goes into it.
What the base fee covers
- The mint transaction that creates your token on Solana mainnet.
- Network rent - the small SOL deposit Solana requires to keep your token's accounts alive. This is included, not charged on top.
- On-chain Metaplex metadata so wallets and explorers show your name, symbol and logo.
- Logo hosting for the life of the token.
- The full supply minted straight to your wallet.
Optional add-ons
Each of these is +0.1 SOL and entirely optional:
| Add-on | Price |
|---|---|
| Revoke mint authority (fixed supply) | +0.1 SOL |
| Revoke freeze authority | +0.1 SOL |
| Revoke update authority | +0.1 SOL |
| Creator & social info in metadata | +0.1 SOL |
The most popular combination is revoke mint + revoke freeze, which signals a fixed-supply token that cannot freeze holders. See the live pricing page for the current totals.
The cost most people forget: liquidity
Minting is cheap. The larger cost of launching a tradeable token is the liquidity you pair with it. To open trading on a DEX like Raydium you supply SOL alongside your tokens, and that SOL sets the starting price. Typical launches use anywhere from a few SOL to twenty or more. This is your capital - it stays in the pool, it is not a fee - but you should budget for it separately from the mint. Our liquidity tool charges a small flat service fee on top of the SOL you choose to add.

Why no subscription?
A token is created once. Charging a recurring fee for a one-time on-chain action makes no sense, so we do not. You pay once, in SOL, at the moment you launch - and hosting your metadata and logo afterwards is included.
