Create a MicroSale
Launching a MicroSale is straightforward. This guide walks you through every field and decision point so your token goes live with confidence.
Prerequisites
Before you begin, ensure you have:
- A connected wallet with sufficient native currency for gas fees.
- Your project branding ready (logo URL, banner URL, description).
- Social links (optional but recommended for credibility).
Step 1: Access the create page
Navigate to https://www.cheesepad.ai/microsale/create or click the Create MicroSale button from the MicroSale list page. Connect your wallet if prompted.
Step 2: Basic information
Fill in the token details that will be displayed to contributors:
| Field | Description | Required |
|---|---|---|
| Token Name | Full name of your token (e.g., "Cheese Moon") | Yes |
| Token Symbol | Ticker symbol (e.g., "CMOON") | Yes |
| Website | Your project's website URL | No |
| Logo URL | Direct link to your token logo image | No |
| Banner URL | Direct link to a banner image for the sale page | No |
| Description | Brief description of your project | No |
High-quality branding significantly increases contributor trust. Take time to prepare professional assets.
Step 3: Social information (optional)
Expand the social section to add links to your community channels:
- Twitter / X
- GitHub
- Telegram
- Discord
- YouTube
These links appear on your sale page and help contributors verify your project's legitimacy.
Step 4: Select a configuration
Choose from available preset configurations. Each config determines:
| Parameter | Example values |
|---|---|
| Presale Tokens | 560,000,000 tokens |
| LP Tokens | 440,000,000 tokens |
| Hardcap | 12 BNB |
| Duration | 6 hours |
| Buy/Sell Tax | 2% / 3% |
| Tax Duration | 2 days (taxes expire after this) |
Active configs are marked with a green Active badge. Currently there is only one preset (above); governance may add more in the future.
Step 5: Set max contribution
Define the maximum amount a single wallet can contribute:
- Purpose: Prevents whales from dominating the sale.
- Value: Entered in native currency (e.g., BNB, ETH).
- Tip: A lower max contribution promotes fairer distribution.
If set to 0, there is no per-wallet limit (only the hardcap applies).
Step 6: Review and submit
Before submitting:
- Double-check all entered information.
- Ensure you're connected to the correct network.
- Confirm you have enough gas for the transaction.
Click Create MicroSale to submit the transaction. Once confirmed:
- A new token contract is deployed automatically.
- The sale page becomes accessible at
https://www.cheesepad.ai/microsale/{chain}/{address}. - The sale starts immediately and runs for the duration defined by the selected config.
After creation
As the sale owner, you can:
| Action | When available |
|---|---|
| Update pool info | Anytime before finalization |
| Finalize sale | After the hard cap is reached |
| Cancel sale | While sale is still active |
Updating pool information
Navigate to your sale page and click Update Pool Info in the Owner Zone. You can edit:
- Logo and banner URLs
- Description
- Social links
Finalizing the sale
When the sale reaches the hard cap:
- Go to your sale page.
- In the Owner Zone, click Finalize This Pool.
- Confirm the transaction.
Upon finalization:
- Liquidity is added to the configured DEX.
- LP tokens are burned permanently.
- Contributors can claim their tokens.
Cancelling the sale
If you need to cancel (e.g., project pivot, insufficient interest):
- Go to your sale page.
- In the Owner Zone, click Cancel Sale.
- Confirm the transaction.
After cancellation:
- Contributors can withdraw their contributed funds.
- No tokens are distributed.
- The sale page shows a "Cancelled" status.
Common questions
Q: Can I change the hardcap after creation? A: No. Hardcap is defined by the selected config and cannot be modified.
Q: What happens if the sale does not reach the hard cap? A: The MicroSale cannot be finalized unless the hard cap is reached. In that case, the owner (or an authorized governor) can cancel the sale so contributors can withdraw.
Q: Can I use my own token contract? A: No. MicroSale automatically deploys a standardized token contract.
