How to Create a Solana Token Without Coding in 2025

Creating your own cryptocurrency token used to require extensive programming knowledge. Not anymore. With modern no-code platforms like TokenGen, anyone can create a professional SPL token on Solana in minutes.

What You'll Need

Before you start, make sure you have:

- **A Solana wallet** (Phantom, Solflare, or Backpack recommended)
- **0.01-0.03 SOL** for transaction fees
- **Basic token information** (name, symbol, supply)

Step-by-Step Guide

Step 1: Connect Your Wallet

Navigate to TokenGen's builder page and click "Connect Wallet". Select your preferred Solana wallet from the list. Phantom wallet is recommended for its security features and transaction previews.

Step 2: Configure Your Token

Fill in your token details:
- **Name**: Full name of your token (e.g., "My Project Token")
- **Symbol**: 2-10 character ticker (e.g., "MPT")
- **Decimals**: Usually 9 (standard for Solana tokens)
- **Supply**: Initial number of tokens to create

Step 3: Add Metadata (Optional)

Enhance your token with:
- Description
- Logo image (PNG/JPG)
- Project website
- Social media links

Step 4: Set Authority Preferences

Choose whether to revoke:
- **Mint Authority**: Prevents creating more tokens (recommended for fixed supply)
- **Freeze Authority**: Prevents freezing token accounts (recommended for DeFi)

Step 5: Review & Create

Review the transaction preview, check the fees, and approve the transaction in your wallet. Your token will be created on Solana in seconds!

Creating a token on TokenGen costs approximately:
- Token creation: ~0.01 SOL
