All About Allowlists for Mint Pages

An allowlist lets you give select collectors exclusive access to your mint page early. During this pre-sale phase, only addresses in your uploaded CSV can participate.

How the Two Phases Work

Pre-Sale Phase (Allowlist)
• Exclusive minting window for your allowlisted collectors only.
• Duration options: one hour, two hours, twelve hours, twenty-four hours, or forty-eight hours.
• Mint price can be lower than the Public Sale price.
• You can choose to run a Pre-Sale only mint. No Public Sale needed

Public Sale Phase
• Opens your mint to everyone after Pre-Sale ends (if enabled)
• Duration options: twelve hours, twenty-four hours, forty-eight hours, one week, or unlimited
• Mint price can differ from the Pre-Sale
• Set a maximum tokens per wallet for the Public Sale

Once your Pre-Sale timer runs out, your Mint Page automatically switches to Public Sale.

Why Use an Allowlist?

• Reward early supporters and VIP collectors
• Control initial minting pressure and reduce gas wars
• Offer special pricing or limited editions to top fans
• Build hype by announcing an exclusive window

Step-By-Step Setup

  1. Prepare Your CSV
    • Column A: Collector wallet address
    • Column B: Maximum mints allowed per wallet
    • Save as a UTF-8 encoded CSV file

  2. Upload During Mint Page Creation
    Upload it to the Allowlist section in the "Sales Configuration" step of the mint page set up.

  3. Configure Pre-Sale Settings
    • Choose your Pre-Sale duration & mint price
    • Decide if you will also run a Public Sale

  4. Launch Your Mint Page
    Publish your page when you are ready. Only allowlisted wallets can mint until the Pre-Sale ends.

  5. Automatic Transition
    When your Pre-Sale timer expires, your page flips to Public Sale without any extra steps.

Allowlist and Wallet Limits

• You may set different wallet limits for Pre-Sale and Public Sale.
• If a collector mints their full Pre-Sale allowance, they may only mint the remainder up to the Public Sale limit.
• Once your allowlist is uploaded and your page is live, you cannot edit the allowlist file or wallet limits. Double-check before publishing.
