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!
👉 Go To Token Factory :
Creating a token on Solana is simple! Just follow these steps.
📌 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!
📌 Enter the basic details of your token.
Token Name: Enter the name of your token (e.g., Dexlab).
Ticker (Symbol): Set a short symbol for your token (e.g., DXL).
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! 🚀
📌 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).
Create Your Token
Click "Create Token" to finalize.
Approve the wallet transaction.
Your token is now live on the Solana blockchain! 🎉🎉
📌 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.
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.

Tags
Tags help categorize your token.
Example tags: Meme, FanToken, Airdrop, RWA, Tokenization.
Helps improve discoverability in token explorers & exchanges.
✅ Congratulations! Your token has been successfully minted on the Solana blockchain.

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! 🚀
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. 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. 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)

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.

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.
