Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before creating your first token

How do I create my own crypto token on TradePesa?
Sign up for a free account, go to Create Token from your dashboard, fill in the token name, symbol (e.g. MYTKN), starting price, and total supply, then upload a logo and hit Launch. Your token appears on the marketplace within seconds.
Do I need coding skills or a crypto wallet?
No. TradePesa handles everything behind the scenes. You don't need Solidity, MetaMask, or any blockchain wallet. If you can fill in a web form, you can create a token.
Can I practice before creating a live token?
Yes. TradePesa has a Practice Mode where you trade with virtual K$Coins. You can test your token concept, see how the order book works, and get comfortable before putting real money in.
How is this different from creating a token on Ethereum or Solana?
On Ethereum or Solana you need to deploy a smart contract, pay gas fees, and manage a crypto wallet — which requires technical knowledge and upfront cost. TradePesa is a hosted platform: no blockchain fees, no code, and deposits/withdrawals work through M-Pesa. Optionally, once your token is live, you can also pay a one-time fee to mint it as a real SPL token on the Solana blockchain for on-chain verification — see below.
Can I list my token on the real Solana blockchain?
Yes, optionally. In Live trading mode, token creators can pay a one-time fee to mint their existing TradePesa token as a genuine, permanent SPL token on the Solana blockchain, verifiable on Solana Explorer. This is a separate add-on — your token keeps trading normally on TradePesa either way.
Can I trade my token on Solana or a DEX like Raydium?
Yes, self-service — no need to contact anyone. For a one-time fee, a live token's creator can launch it on Solana's real open market: this creates a genuine trading pool (via Meteora's Dynamic Bonding Curve) with real liquidity, so anyone with a Solana wallet can buy and sell it on Jupiter, DexScreener, or Birdeye. This is separate from, and in addition to, the token's normal trading on TradePesa. Look for "Launch on Solana's Open Market" on your token's page once it's live, or read the full explanation.
What is max supply vs starting/reference supply?
When you create a token, there's an optional checkbox: "Enforce as a hard cap." Check it and buying genuinely stops once your token reaches that many tokens in circulation — a real limit, like most cryptocurrencies. Leave it unchecked (the default) and the number is just a reference figure for context — buying is never blocked by it. Entirely your choice, and it can't be changed after the token is created.
Is token creation free?
Creating an account and practising is completely free. Live token creation may require a small K$Coin balance (acquired via M-Pesa deposit). Sign up and check the current requirements in your dashboard.
Will my token appear on Google?
Yes. Every live token gets a public page at trade-pesa.com/token/YOURSYMBOL with a price chart, stats, and your token's description. These pages are indexed by Google so your token can appear in search results.
