Registration & Creation Pricing
One-time fees for getting your token onto Chain Daddy. Recurring plans are documented separately on Token Plans.
Create a Token
Deploy a brand-new ERC-20 (or SPL on Solana) and file the on-chain registration in one flow. Token creation combines a flat per-chain creation fee with the registration fee.
| Item | Cost |
|---|---|
| Token creation, per chain | $5 |
| Registration, per chain | $15 |
| Single-chain create + register | $15 + $5 (creation + registration combined) |
| Gas | Paid to the chain, varies (see gas estimates) |
Standard create flow: Create a Token.
Multi-Chain Bundles
Bundles combine creation + registration across multiple chains into one discounted price: a flat 10% off every chain in any order of 2+ chains. Your registrations link automatically into one unified token page across all your deployments — see Cross-Chain Linking.
| Bundle | Chains | Price | Savings vs. à la carte |
|---|---|---|---|
| Duo | 2 | $36 | $4 |
| Tri | 3 | $54 | $6 |
| Quad | 4 | $72 | $8 |
| All-Chain | 5 | $90 | $10 |
Bundle prices already include both the creation fee and the registration fee for every chain in the bundle. You only pay gas on top. The same flat 10% applies to any mix of chains — including Ethereum, which has a higher per-chain price.
Cross-Chain Linking
Linking is automatic and free. When the same wallet registers the same ticker on additional chains — whether in one bundled order or one chain at a time — the registrations link into one unified token page on their own. There is no separate linking fee and no manual linking step; you only ever pay the normal per-chain registration or creation fees above.
The one requirement: register from the same wallet on every chain. The token on each chain can have been created by a different wallet, as long as the wallet you register with passes that chain's ownership verification.
See Cross-Chain Linking for how the peer model works.
Claim an Existing Token
A flat platform fee covers your on-chain registration. You still pay gas on the destination chain.
| Item | Cost |
|---|---|
| Standard platform fee | $15 |
| OG-eligible projects | $0 (see eligibility) |
| Gas | Paid to the chain, varies (see gas estimates) |
Standard claim flow: Claim an Existing Token.
OG Free Registration
Established token projects that meet specific activity thresholds qualify for OG status, which waives the platform fee when registering a token — you only pay gas.
Eligibility Criteria
All three conditions must be met simultaneously:
| Criterion | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Deployment Age | Token contract deployed 60+ days ago |
| Market Cap | Market cap ≥ $50,000 |
| Liquidity | Liquidity ≥ $10,000 |
Automatic Detection
OG eligibility is calculated automatically from on-chain data. No application or manual review is required.
How to Check Eligibility
- Search your token name on Chain Daddy
- Look for the OG badge next to your token in search results
- If the badge appears, your registration will be fee-free (gas only)
The OG badge indicates the token has met all three criteria at the time of the search. Eligibility is recalculated on each search query using live on-chain data.
Eligibility Can Change
If your token's market cap or liquidity drops below the thresholds before you register, the OG badge may disappear. Register while eligible to lock in the free rate.
OG covers registration only
The fee waiver applies only to the initial registration. Per-chain creation fees and bundle discounts still apply at standard rates.
OG FAQ
Does OG status expire after registering?
No. Once you register your token, the registration remains yours regardless of future activity levels. The OG check only applies at registration time.
Can I get a refund if I paid the platform fee but was eligible?
OG eligibility is checked at registration time. If the badge was not showing when you registered, you did not meet all three criteria at that moment.
My token is old but has low liquidity. Am I eligible?
All three criteria must be met simultaneously. A 60-day-old token below the market cap or liquidity threshold does not qualify.
Gas Estimates
Gas costs are paid directly to the chain, not to Chain Daddy. Estimates vary with network conditions; L2s and Solana are consistently low, Ethereum mainnet swings the most.
| Chain | Typical Gas Cost |
|---|---|
| Arbitrum | $0.05-$0.50 |
| Solana | $0.01-$0.05 |
| Base | $0.01-$0.10 |
| Polygon | $0.01-$0.05 |
| BNB Chain | $0.05-$0.30 |
| Ethereum | $5-$50+ |
Deal Fees
Ownership deal facilitation (buyouts, migrations, project acquisitions) is priced separately on a sliding scale with hard caps. See Ownership Deals for the full schedule.
Token Plans
Recurring tools for token management (analytics, alerts, gated links, holder notifications, API access) are covered by plan tiers. See Token Plans.
