This guide walks you through the complete process of using Zaunchpad, whether you’re launching a token, buying tokens, or managing your dashboard.

How to Create Token

Step 1: Connect Your Wallet

  1. Navigate to app.zaunchpad.com 
  2. Click “Connect Wallet” in the top right
  3. Select your Solana wallet:
    • Phantom, Solflare, or other Solana wallets

Home Page

Step 2: Navigate to Create Page

  1. Click “CREATE” in the navigation menu
  2. Or navigate directly to /create

Launch Token Page

Step 3: Token Information (Step 01. INFO)

The first step involves configuring your token’s basic information and branding.

Test Mode (Optional)

You can enable Test Mode to auto-fill sample data for testing purposes. This is useful for exploring the interface without entering all fields manually.

Launch Token with Test Mode

Token Details

  1. Token Name (Required): The full name of your token

    • Example: “My Awesome Token”
    • This field is disabled if using an existing token

  2. Token Symbol (Required): Short symbol (max 5 characters)

    • Example: “MAT”
    • Automatically converted to uppercase
    • This field is disabled if using an existing token

New Token vs Existing Token

You have two options:

Option A: Create New Token

  • Leave “I have an existing Token” unchecked
  • Configure:
    • Token Supply (Required): Total number of tokens to mint (e.g., 1000000)
    • Decimal (Required): Token decimals (typically 6 or 9)

Option B: Use Existing Token

  • Check “I have an existing Token”
  • Enter Token Mint Address (Required): Your Solana SPL token mint address
  • The system will automatically fetch and display token information
  • Token name, symbol, and other details will be auto-filled from the blockchain

Existing Token

Note: For existing tokens, you’ll transfer the sale allocation into the Zaunchpad Shielded Vault. Buyers purchase tickets anonymously, and when they claim, the Vault releases your tokens to their fresh wallets, breaking the link between payment and claim.

Token Description

  • Description (Optional): Describe your token and project
  • This helps potential buyers understand your project
  • Token Icon (Required): Upload your token logo
  • You can:
    • Drag and drop an image file
    • Click to browse and select a file
    • Paste from clipboard (Ctrl+V / Cmd+V)
  • Supported formats: Common image formats (PNG, JPG, SVG, etc.)

Add your project’s social media presence:

  • X/Twitter: Enter username (e.g., “username” for x.com/username)
  • Telegram: Enter channel/handle (e.g., “channel” for t.me/channel)
  • Website: Enter domain (e.g., “example.com” for https://example.com )

All social URLs are validated automatically.

Proceed to Next Step

Once you’ve filled in all required fields (Token Name, Symbol, Logo, and either Token Supply/Decimal for new tokens or Mint Address for existing tokens), click “NEXT STEP →” to proceed.

Step 4: Sale Parameters (Step 02. SALE PARAMETERS)

The second step configures your token sale economics and timing.

Sale Parameters

Testnet Notice

On testnet, the maximum price per token is capped at $0.10 to minimize risk while testing with real funds on NEAR Intents.

Pricing

  1. Price per Token (USD) (Required)
    • Enter the price in USD (e.g., 0.00001)
    • Maximum: $0.10 on testnet
    • The system automatically converts this to SOL based on current market prices

Sale Amounts

  1. Minimum Raise (Tokens) (Coming Soon)

    • Currently disabled - coming in a future update
    • Will allow setting a funding goal with automatic refunds if not met

  2. Amount to be Sold (Tokens) (Required)

    • Total number of tokens available for sale
    • Example: 100000
    • This amount goes into the vault for distribution

Sale Timing

  1. Sale Start Time (Required)

    • Select when your token sale begins
    • Must be in the future
    • Use the datetime picker to set date and time

  2. Sale End Time (Required)

    • Select when your token sale ends
    • Must be after the start time
    • Minimum: 1 minute after start time

Claim Schedule

Currently, only Immediate Claim is available:

  • Claims can begin immediately after the sale ends
  • Scheduled Claim (coming soon): Set a custom date for when buyers can claim

Creator Wallet (ZEC)

Creator Wallet (ZEC) (Required): Your Zcash wallet address to receive funds from NEAR Intents

  • Supports three address types:
    • Transparent addresses: Start with t1... (34-36 characters)
    • Shielded addresses: Start with zs... (77-79 characters)
    • Unified addresses: Start with u1... (78+ characters)

How to get a ZEC address:

  1. Download a Zcash wallet:
  2. Create a new wallet and securely save your seed phrase
  3. Copy your receiving address (starts with t1, zs, or u1)

💡 Privacy Tip: For better privacy, use a shielded (zs) or unified (u1) address instead of a transparent (t1) address.

How It Works

  • Sale end time must be after start time
  • After sale ends, creators can claim any unsold tokens via ZK proof verification
  • Claim period starts immediately after sale ends
  • Buyers purchase tickets anonymously using ZEC via NEAR Intents

Coming Soon Features

  • Scheduled Claim: Set a custom date for when buyers can claim their tokens
  • Minimum Raise: Set a funding goal; if not met, buyers get automatic refunds
  • Buyer Refunds: If target not hit, tickets can be used to reclaim funds
  • Vesting Schedules: Release tokens gradually over time
  • Whitelist/Allowlist: Restrict who can participate in the sale

Deploy Token

Once all required fields are filled:

  1. Review all settings carefully
  2. Click “DEPLOY TOKEN”
  3. Confirm the transaction in your wallet

Confirm Transaction

  1. Wait for deployment progress:
    • Preparing Token
    • Uploading Metadata to IPFS
    • Deploying Token on Blockchain
    • Confirming Transaction

Step 3: Deposit with Any Asset (NEAR Intents)

Using NEAR Intents, the system automatically swaps your deposit to Zcash:

  1. Click “Participate” or “Buy” on the token page
  2. Connect your NEAR wallet if not already connected
  3. Select Payment Chain: Choose the blockchain you want to pay from
    • Supported chains: Ethereum, NEAR, Base, Arbitrum, Polygon, and more
  1. Select Payment Token: Choose the token you want to use
    • ETH, USDC, USDT, NEAR, or other supported tokens
  1. Check Price Before Get Ticket: Review the price and details before proceeding
  1. Review the transaction details:
    • Deposit Amount: Amount you’re depositing
    • Swap Details: Automatic swap to Zcash via OneClick
    • Expected ZEC: Amount of Zcash after swap
    • Network Fees: Transaction costs
  2. Confirm the transaction

Deposit

  1. Click “Check Status” - After your deposit is confirmed, click the “Check Status” button. The claim option will then appear.

Proof Generation

Step 4: ZK-SNARK Proof Generation

After your deposit and swap are verified:

  1. TEE Verification: Phala TEE verifies swap success
    • Checks swap status is SUCCESS (via OneClick API)
    • Verifies recipient matches creator
    • Confirms destination asset is ZEC (nep141:zec.omft.near)
  2. Proof Generation: TEE generates zero-knowledge proof
    • Acts as an IOU of predetermined amount at mint price
    • This proof is your claim ticket
  3. Proof Download: Download the proof ZIP file
    • Save it securely - you’ll need it to claim tokens
    • Each proof gets a unique reference (e.g., zk_proof_a1b2c3d4)

Step 5: Capital Allocation

  1. Allocated capital is deposited into the Meteora pool
  2. Provides liquidity for the token launch
  3. Maintains your privacy throughout the process

How to Claim Token
