How to create a token on TON
This guide walks you through deploying your own Jetton on The Open Network from start to finish — no coding, tiny fees, done in minutes.
What is TON?
TON (The Open Network) is a non-EVM layer-1 tightly integrated with Telegram, giving tokens direct access to hundreds of millions of chat users. Tokens follow the Jetton standard and are held in wallets like Tonkeeper or the in-app Telegram Wallet.
Why create a token on TON?
No other chain puts your token one tap away from a messaging app used by hundreds of millions of people. A TON Jetton is built for that Telegram-native distribution, with fees of a fraction of a cent.
Step 1 — Set up your wallet
Install a TON wallet such as Tonkeeper, MyTonWallet or use the Telegram Wallet — see best TON wallets. Our TON creator connects to any of them via TON Connect.
Step 2 — Get some TON
You need a little TON for gas and the service fee. Buy TON on an exchange and withdraw it to your address, or buy inside the Telegram Wallet — see TON fees.
Step 3 — Configure your token
Open the TON token creator and enter your name, symbol, decimals and total supply. Optionally upload an icon and write a short description. Plan numbers with our tokenomics generator.
Step 4 — Deploy
Click create and approve the transaction in your wallet. Your Jetton is deployed on TON in seconds, the full supply is minted to you, and you become the token admin.
Step 5 — Make it tradable
Add a liquidity pool on a TON DEX — see add liquidity on TON. Consider locking liquidity to build trust, then view your Jetton on Tonviewer.
How much does it cost to create a token on TON?
Deploying a Jetton on TON costs a fraction of a cent in TON, plus the service fee. There is no separate listing charge — once deployed, your Jetton is immediately tradable on Ston.fi and DeDust as soon as you add a liquidity pool.
Verifying your contract on Tonviewer
The generator deploys an already-verified contract, so anyone can inspect the source on Tonviewer. A verified contract is a core trust signal — share your Tonviewer link so holders can confirm the total supply, ownership status and that there are no hidden mint or blacklist functions.
Security tips for your TON token
A few habits protect your holders on TON: decide up front whether to keep minting open or renounce it for a fixed supply, add liquidity and then lock it so buyers know it can't be pulled, test with a small amount first, and never promise guaranteed returns.

Frequently asked questions
Is my token a real Jetton?
Yes — the generator deploys a standard, verified Jetton that works with every TON wallet, DEX and explorer. It is a normal on-chain token, not a wrapper or a copy.
How long does deployment take on TON?
Only a few moments. After you confirm in your wallet, the contract is live on TON within seconds (around five seconds), with the full supply sent to your address.
Do I need to write any code?
No. You fill in a short form — name, symbol, supply and any optional features — and the tool deploys the Jetton contract for you.
Do I need to code?
No. The TON token creator deploys a standard TEP-74 Jetton for you — you just fill in a form and approve.
How much does it cost?
Just the small TON network gas plus the service fee. Keep a little TON in your wallet.
Do I really own the token?
Yes — the Jetton and full supply are sent to your wallet, and you are the admin. It is fully non-custodial.
