Approve one transaction — your ERC-20 token goes live instantly and is yours forever.
Metis runs its mainnet, Andromeda, as an Ethereum layer-2 with its own gas coin, METIS. Your token is a standard ERC-20. We read the network values below on 26 Oct 2026.
| Network | Metis Andromeda, chain ID 1088 |
|---|---|
| Gas coin | METIS |
| Public RPC | https://andromeda.metis.io/?owner=1088 (rate-limited) |
| Explorer | Andromeda explorer |
| Official bridge | bridge.metis.io |
| Add to wallet | Connecting on this page asks your wallet to switch to Metis Andromeda and adds the network if it is missing. |
| Our factory | 0xEd9Bd969397b9120ED3Af3c47B6AD1584bbD56ED |
| Service fee | 5 METIS, read from the factory's fee() |
| Network gas | About 0.018–0.019 METIS: roughly 1.5 million gas at about 12 gwei |
METIS also exists as an ERC-20 on Ethereum. When you withdraw from an exchange, choose the Metis Andromeda network. If your METIS is still on Ethereum, move it through the Metis bridge first. Hold about 5.05 METIS on Andromeda: the 5 METIS service fee plus gas, which came to about 0.018–0.019 METIS for creating a token on 26 Oct 2026.
The public RPC is rate-limited, as the Metis docs warn. If your wallet times out or shows a balance of 0, switch its Metis RPC to another provider from the Metis docs and try again. Your funds are not affected; only the connection is.
Netswap is the long-running classic AMM on Andromeda, and it had the most DEX volume on Metis in the 30 days to 26 Oct 2026 (DefiLlama). Hercules runs both classic (V2) and concentrated (V3) pools, and nearly all of its trading is in the V3 pools. A token with Tax belongs in a classic pool such as Netswap, because concentrated pools don't support transfer taxes. Trading on Metis is thinner than on the largest layer-2s, so a deeper opening pool keeps early buys from swinging the price. For a meme coin, our meme coin guide helps you size the supply and plan the first holders.

Creating your ERC-20 token costs the Metis network gas fee plus a small one-time service fee (about 5 METIS). There are no subscriptions or hidden charges.
None at all. The generator deploys a standard, open-source ERC-20 contract for you from our factory. You simply choose the name, symbol, supply and optional features, then click deploy.
Completely. The deployment is non-custodial — we never hold your keys, and you are the sole owner of the contract. By default no mint, tax or blacklist powers are enabled, and you can renounce ownership at any time to make the token fully immutable.
Under two minutes. After you approve the transaction in your wallet, your token deploys instantly and appears on Metis Explorer right away.
Yes. Your token works with standard wallets and DEXs on Metis. If you turned on Tax, use a V2-style pool; concentrated-liquidity (V3) pools don't support transfer taxes.
Usually the connection, not your funds. The public Andromeda RPC is rate-limited, as the Metis docs warn, so switch your wallet's Metis RPC to another provider listed in the Metis docs and try again. If the balance still shows 0, check that your METIS is on the Metis Andromeda network and not on Ethereum.
Not directly. METIS on Ethereum is an ERC-20 and can't pay gas on Andromeda. Move it with the Metis bridge, or withdraw from an exchange on the Metis Andromeda network.
No code, no waiting — deploy your ERC-20 token in minutes. Small one-time service fee + gas.
