🗓️ May 29, 2025

Phantom is the most popular wallet in the Solana ecosystem — simple, secure, and powerful.
In this guide, we’ll show you how to use Phantom Wallet to create your own SPL token using Solana Token Creator.

 

🔐 Step 1: Install Phantom Wallet

Go to phantom.app and download the browser extension for Chrome, Firefox, or Edge.
Create a new wallet or restore one using your seed phrase.
Make sure to back up your recovery phrase securely!

 

💳 Step 2: Fund Your Wallet

To create a token, you need a small amount of SOL.
Send at least 0.2 SOL to your Phantom address — this covers network fees and token creation.

You can buy SOL from exchanges (like Binance, Coinbase) or swap within Phantom itself.

 

🌐 Step 3: Connect to Solana Token Creator

Visit solanatokencreator.com
Click “Connect Wallet” — Phantom will pop up and ask you to approve the connection.

Once connected, you’ll see your wallet address on the page.

 

📝 Step 4: Enter Your Token Details

Fill out the simple form:

  • Token Name – e.g., Moon Doge
  • Symbol – e.g., MODO
  • Total Supply – e.g., 1,000,000
  • Decimals – usually 9 for Solana
  • Image & Description (optional)

 

⚙️ Step 5: Set Optional Authorities

You can choose to:

  • Revoke Mint Authority — prevent future minting
  • Revoke Freeze Authority — prevent account freezing

These options make your token more secure and trusted by users.

 

🚀 Step 6: Create Your Token

Click the “Create Token” button.
Phantom will prompt you to approve the transaction.
Once approved, your token is minted and live on Solana!

  • 🎉 You’ll see the mint address and a link to view it on Solana Explorer
  • 📥 You can import the token into Phantom by adding the mint address manually

 

🔚 Summary

  • Install and fund your Phantom Wallet
