Orca’s Token Creation Tool lets users create SPL tokens on Solana through the Orca interface.
The tool is designed to make token creation more accessible by guiding users through common token setup fields, including token name, symbol, image, description, supply, and mint address.
Before creating a token, review all details carefully. Some token settings, including supply, cannot be changed after creation.
Creating a token does not guarantee liquidity, trading activity, token list inclusion, third-party listing, or market demand. Always review token details before confirming each transaction.
Step-by-step guide
Go to orca.so/create-token, or open the Create menu and click Create Token.
If you have not already connected your wallet, connect it before continuing.
Step 2: Enter token details
Enter the details for your token:
- Name — Enter a clear token name.
- Symbol — Choose a symbol or ticker for your token.
- Token mint address — Optionally use the randomize button to generate a different token mint address. You can use this repeatedly before creating the token.
- Description — Optionally add a brief description for reference.
- Image — Drag and drop or upload an image to represent your token. Supported file types include SVG, JPG, JPEG, and PNG. A square PNG, such as 256x256 pixels, is commonly used.
- Supply — Choose the token supply. This cannot be changed later, so review it carefully before continuing.
Step 3: Preview the token
When the details are ready, click Preview Token.
Review all token details carefully, including:
- Token name
- Symbol
- Mint address
- Description
- Image
- Supply
- Authority and metadata settings
- Estimated transaction costs
Step 4: Create the token
If the previewed details are correct, click Create Token.
You may need to approve one or more transactions in your wallet to complete the token creation process. Review each wallet prompt before signing.
Step 5: After creation
Once the transaction confirms, your token has been created.
You can optionally create an initial liquidity pool for the token by clicking Create Splash Pool. For more information, see Creating a Splash Pool.
Important reminders
Token details may be permanent
Some token settings cannot be changed after creation. Review the token name, symbol, supply, mint address, image, and authority settings carefully before submitting.
Creating a token does not create liquidity
A token can exist without an active liquidity pool. To make a token available for trading on Orca, a liquidity pool must be created separately.
Token display may require review
Creating a token does not automatically add it to the Orca Token List. If you want token name, symbol, and logo information reviewed for display in Orca, see Orca Token List.
Third-party listings are separate
Creating a token or pool on Orca does not guarantee listing, verification, or display on third-party platforms such as CoinGecko or Jupiter. Each platform manages its own review process and criteria.
