Getting started

Launch a token

Everything you need to deploy your own memecoin on GetBased.

Before you start

A wallet connected to Base (e.g. Coinbase Wallet or MetaMask).
A small amount of ETH on Base for the creation fee and gas.
A name, ticker, and ideally an image URL for your token.

Create from the app

Head to the Launch page, fill in your token details, and confirm the transaction. Your token deploys instantly and appears on the bonding curve, ready to trade.

Create from the contract

You can also call the launchpad directly. The signature is:

GetBasedLaunchpad.sol

function createToken(
    string calldata _name,
    string calldata _symbol,
    string calldata _uri
) external payable returns (address);

Send at least creationFee (0.0005 ETH) as msg.value. Any excess is refunded in the same transaction. The function returns the address of your new token.

Metadata URI

The _uri field is stored on the token as tokenURI(). Point it at a JSON file (image, description, links) so explorers and the GetBased UI can render your token nicely.

After launch

Share your token page so people can buy on the curve.
Track progress toward the 3 ETH graduation threshold in real time.
On graduation, trading moves to Uniswap automatically — there is nothing else you need to do.
