How to create a token on World Chain
This guide walks you through creating your own ERC-20 token on World Chain from start to finish - no coding, very low fees, done in minutes.
What is World Chain?
World Chain is an Ethereum layer-2 from the Worldcoin project, built on the OP Stack with priority blockspace for verified humans through World ID. It is fully EVM-compatible while adding a proof-of-personhood layer.
Why create a token on World Chain?
World Chain gives your ERC-20 access to a large base of verified-human users and priority blockspace, which can help with fair distribution and bot resistance. Standard Ethereum tooling still applies.
Step 1 - Set up your wallet
Install MetaMask and add World Chain (Chain ID 480). Our World Chain creator can switch you in one click, or follow add World Chain to MetaMask.
Step 2 - Get ETH
You need a little ETH on the World Chain network for gas and the service fee. Bridge ETH to World Chain, or withdraw ETH from a supporting exchange.
Step 3 - Configure your token
Open the World Chain token generator and enter your name, symbol, decimals and total supply. Choose optional features - mintable, burnable, tax, anti-whale, 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 World Chain in seconds, with the full supply sent to your wallet.
Step 5 - Make it tradable
Add a liquidity pool on a World Chain DEX - see add liquidity on World Chain. Consider locking liquidity to build trust.
How much does it cost to create a token on World Chain?
A World Chain deployment usually costs a few cents in ETH gas, plus the service fee. There is no separate listing charge — once deployed, your ERC-20 is immediately tradable on Uniswap as soon as you add a liquidity pool.
Verifying your contract on Worldscan
The generator deploys an already-verified contract, so anyone can inspect the source on Worldscan. A verified contract is a core trust signal — share your Worldscan link so holders can confirm the total supply, ownership status and that there are no hidden mint or blacklist functions.
Security tips for your World Chain token
A few habits protect your holders on World Chain: 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. If you plan a fair launch, read our guide on avoiding scams and rug pulls.
Frequently asked questions

Only a few moments. After you confirm in your wallet, the contract is live on World Chain within seconds (a couple of 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 ERC-20 contract for you.
