# Quick Token Creation Guide

## Create a Solana Token – Easy & Fast!

### 💡 Create Your Own Token on Solana!

On the Solana blockchain, anyone can create their own digital token. It’s similar to how a coffee shop issues reward points. You can use it for a specific purpose, just like points, or even trade it like real currency!

## How to Create Your Solana Token

👉 Go To Token Factory : [https://dexlab.space/token/create](<https://dexlab.space/token/create >)

**📌 Finalize your token settings and complete the creation process.**

* Customize Token Address (Optional)
  * Add up to 4 custom characters at the start or end of your token’s address.
  * Example: If you enter "DXL", your address may start like "DXL...".
  * This is optional—you can keep a random address if you prefer.
* Set Your Token Supply
  * Enter the total number of tokens to be created.
  * Default: 1,000,000,000 tokens, but you can change it.
  * If you need to adjust "decimals", click "Show Advanced Options" below.
* Choose Where to Mint Tokens
  * Mint to Wallet: The wallet that will receive the initial supply.
  * Default: Your own connected wallet (recommended).

✅ **If no changes are needed, simply click "Create Token" to finalize.**
{% endhint %}

* Create Your Token
  * Click "Create Token" to finalize.
  * Approve the wallet transaction.

### Step 4: Advanced Options (Optional)

<figure><img src="/files/mHbrjWBSKDjKwoyzXvic" alt="" width="383"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

📌 **These settings allow you to customize your token further. If you don’t need them, you can skip this step!**

* Decimals (Smallest Unit)
  * Defines how small a fraction of your token can be traded.
  * Default: 6 (1 token = 1,000,000 smallest units).
  * Example:
    * Decimals = 6 → 1 token can be divided into 0.000001 units.
    * Decimals = 1 → 1 token can be divided into 0.1 units.
* **Mint Authority (On/Off)**
  * **If ON:** You can issue additional tokens in the future, increasing the total supply if needed.
  * **If OFF:** The total supply is permanently fixed, and no additional tokens can be added.
* **Freeze Authority (On/Off)**
  * **If ON:** You can freeze or restrict transfers for certain wallets.
  * **If OFF:** All wallets can freely transfer tokens.

{% hint style="warning" %}

### **What is freezing authority?**

Freeze authority means **abandoning the token management**. Add and burn cannot be done if you freeze the authority.

Dexlab's Mintinglab default setting is **NOT** freezing the authority.

As you can see in the screenshot, if you **want to freeze the authority**, enable the checkbox.

{% endhint %}

* **Add Social & Metadata Links**
  * Attach official links to your token.
    * Website – Your project’s official page.
    * Twitter (X), Telegram, Discord – Community & updates.
* **Tags**
  * Tags help categorize your token.
  * Example tags: Meme, FanToken, Airdrop, RWA, Tokenization.
  * Helps improve discoverability in token explorers & exchanges.

### **Step 5: Token Successfully Created! 🎉**

✅ **Congratulations! Your token has been successfully minted on the Solana blockchain.**

## How to Create Your Solana Token-2022

👉 Go To Token Factory : [https://dexlab.space/token/create](<https://dexlab.space/token/create >)

Creating a token on Solana is simple! Just follow these steps.

### **Step 1: Connect Your Wallet**

📌 **Before creating your token, connect your Solana wallet.**

* Click "Connect Wallet" at the top-right navigation bar.
* A pop-up will appear—select your preferred wallet. (e.g, Phantom, Solflare ...)
* Approve the connection request.
* Your wallet will be used to approve transactions and manage your token.

✅ **Once connected, proceed to the next step!**

### Step 2: Enter Token-2022 Basic Information

<figure><img src="/files/Ig2tT75npDRl8yQUDH2v" alt="" width="423"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

* When you click the **Token 2022** tab, you'll see a dedicated form for creating a Token-2022.
* Token Name: Enter the name of your token (e.g., Dex2022).
* Ticker (Symbol): Set a short symbol for your token (e.g., DXL2022).
* Symbol (Logo Image):
  * Upload an image (Recommended size: 256 × 256 pixels)
  * Supported formats(image): JPEG, JPG, PNG, WEBP, GIF, AVIF
* Description (Optional): Add a short description of your token.

✅ **Once you've entered all the details, proceed to the next step!** 🚀

### Step 3: Set Transfer Fee (Optional)

<figure><img src="/files/filFPoUjO4h4sdfr6exa" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

The **Transfer Fee** feature allows your token to automatically charge a fee whenever someone transfers it.

This is useful for:

* Collecting fees for your project or treasury
* Creating deflationary mechanics
* Encouraging long-term holding

If you don’t want to use this feature, simply toggle the switch to **Off**.

**🔧 Transfer Fee Settings**

* **Fee Recipient**\
  The wallet address that will receive the collected transfer fees.
* **Transfer Fee (%)**\
  The percentage of tokens that will be charged as a fee during each transfer.\
  \&#xNAN;*For example, if set to 1.5%, a 100-token transfer will deduct 1.5 tokens as a fee.*
* **Max Transfer Fee (token)**\
  The maximum number of tokens that can be taken as a fee, regardless of the transfer amount.\
  \&#xNAN;*This prevents excessive fees on large transfers.*

✅ **Example:**\
If you set 1.5% fee and a max of 10 tokens, then:

* Transferring 100 tokens → Fee = 1.5 tokens
* Transferring 1,000 tokens → Fee = 10 tokens (capped)

### Step 4: Mint & Generate Your Token

These settings give you **full control** over how your token behaves. You can skip this section, or fine-tune your token for more advanced use cases.

* Decimals (Smallest Unit)
  * Defines how small a fraction of your token can be traded.
  * Default: 6 (1 token = 1,000,000 smallest units).
  * Example:
    * Decimals = 6 → 1 token can be divided into 0.000001 units.
    * Decimals = 1 → 1 token can be divided into 0.1 units.
* Mint Authority (On/Off)
  * **ON:** You can issue additional tokens in the future, increasing the total supply if needed.
  * **OFF:** The total supply is permanently fixed, and no additional tokens can be added.
* Freeze Authority (On/Off)
  * **ON:** You can freeze or restrict transfers for certain wallets.
  * **OFF:** All wallets can freely transfer tokens.
* Default New Account State (Initialized / Frozen)
  * Controls how new token accounts behave by default.
  * `Initialized`: Ready to use immediately.
  * `Frozen`: Users can't use the token until manually unfrozen (good for airdrops, KYC-gated tokens).

> ⚠️ To use the *Default New Account State* feature, **Freeze Authority must be enabled**.

* Close Authority (On / Off)
  * Allows certain accounts to be **closed** and their rent (SOL) reclaimed.
* Permanent Delegate (On / Off)
  * Assigns a wallet with special permissions (burn, transfer, freeze...)
  * Good for programmatic control or DAO-based token management.
* Interest Bearing (On / Off)
  * If `On`, token balances grow automatically over time.
  * Set a custom **Interest Bearing Rate (%)** — e.g., `10` means 10% annual growth.
  * Great for yield-based tokens or staking models.
* Add Social & Metadata Links
  * Attach official links to your token.
    * Website – Your project’s official page.
    * Twitter (X), Telegram, Discord – Community & updates.
* Tags
  * Tags help categorize your token.
  * Example tags: Meme, FanToken, Airdrop, RWA, Tokenization.
  * Helps improve discoverability in token explorers & exchanges.
