How to create a token on Polygon
This guide walks you through creating your own ERC-20 token on Polygon from start to finish — no coding, tiny fees, done in minutes.
Step 1 — Set up your wallet
Install MetaMask and add the Polygon network (Chain ID 137). Our Polygon creator can switch you to Polygon in one click, or follow add Polygon to MetaMask.
Step 2 — Get a little POL
You need a small amount of POL for gas and the service fee. Withdraw POL from an exchange to the Polygon network, or bridge from Ethereum. A few POL is plenty.
Step 3 — Configure your token
Open the Polygon token generator and enter your name, symbol, decimals and total supply. Then choose optional features: mintable, burnable, transaction tax, anti-whale max-wallet, or blacklist — or leave them off for a clean, immutable token. Plan numbers with our tokenomics generator.
Step 4 — Deploy
Click create and confirm in MetaMask. Your verified ERC-20 contract deploys on Polygon in seconds, with the full supply sent to your wallet.
Step 5 — Make it tradable
Add a liquidity pool on QuickSwap or Uniswap so people can buy and sell — see add liquidity on QuickSwap. Consider locking liquidity to build trust.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to code to create a Polygon token?
No. The generator deploys a verified ERC-20 for you — you only fill in a form and confirm in your wallet.
How much does it cost?
Just the small Polygon gas plus the service fee — far cheaper than Ethereum. Keep a little POL in your wallet.
Is my token a real ERC-20?
Yes — a standard, verified ERC-20 that works with every Polygon wallet, DEX and block explorer.
