# Token Creation

Frequently asked questions about TrustSwap's Mint Token Generator

## What is the Token Creation tool?

It is an easy-to-use token generator service used to create and customize fully-audited tokens within seconds without having to pay thousands of dollars for code audits and software development.

## Which chains does Token Creation support?

Currently, Token Creation supports the creation of audited Ethereum (ERC20), BSC (Binance Smart Chain), Polygon, Arc, RobinHood, Monad, and many more. Soon we will add even more chains. Stay tuned!

## Why do DeFi projects need Token Creation?

It saves DeFi projects significant amounts of time and money as tokens can be generated within minutes, **without requiring coding experience!** The tokens created are customizable and ready to integrate with DEXs and other DeFi protocols.

Using smart contracts technology, Mint enhances confidence, trust, efficiency and cost-savings on both audit and developer fees. Communities can rest assured that the code will not have any secret functions or hidden exploits as all coins made with Mint are fully audited by multiple reputable firms.

All Mint contracts are audited by Certik and Hacken, two of the industry-leading security companies. 

## What kind of token customization does Token Creation enable?

Mint allows for customization in terms of initial and maximum token supply, soft/hard caps, pre-sale window, as well as MINT and BURN token features.

## What tokens should I hold in order to be able to mint my token?

In order to pay for gas fees, you would need to hold tokens of the chain your minted tokens will be based on.

For example, if you want to mint ERC20 tokens on the Ethereum chain, you need to hold ETH in their Metamask wallet to pay for the gas fees. 

If you want to mint tokens on the Binance Smart Chain (BSC), you need BNB in your Metamask wallet to pay for the gas fees. 

Same for all other chains we support.

## I want to mint tokens on BSC and Polygon, how can I configure these networks on my Metamask?

To configure Binance Smart Chain on Metamask, follow [this guide](https://academy.binance.com/en/articles/connecting-metamask-to-binance-smart-chain).

To configure Polygon on Metamask, follow [this guide](https://docs.matic.network/docs/develop/metamask/config-polygon-on-metamask/).

## Where can I find the Contract Address of my minted token?

Upon successful minting, the confirmation screen will contain the hash and contract address of the minted token.

You can find the contract address by clicking on the minted token on the "My Mints" webpage.

## Where can I find my tokens after I mint them?

The tokens arrive automatically into your Web3 wallet.

## The process looks simple and easy, but can I do a test minting first?

Of course! 

You can connect your wallet to the Sepolia network to test ERC20 token generation to check out the creation process.

You can get testnet tokens through faucets to pre-fill your wallet.

## Why can I not see my minted tokens on the "My Mints" webpage?

Make sure your Metamask wallet is connected to the correct corresponding network. For example, if you minted on the ETH chain, you need to set your Metamask wallet to Ethereum main net to view your minted tokens on the 'My Mints' page.

## How do I add my image to a token once created?

When creating your token, upload the image using the input field provided.

## How do I add liquidity to a DEX and make my token tradable??

You can manually add liquidity on a dex after your token is created, but we recommend using [MintPlus](https://www.team.finance/mintplus), to mint your audited token, supply liquidity, and lock it in a single, guided experience. Deploy using your preferred EVM wallet, including Safe multisig!

## Can I also use the Team Finance token lock tools if I did not mint my token on your platform?

Most certainly! You can log in to [Team Finance](https://www.team.finance/) to lock your team tokens as well as Liquidity Pair (LP) tokens with Team Finance, and check out the 8 other token tools we offer, like Staking, Vesting, Multisender and more.
