How to Mint an NFT on Solana
Three steps. Upload, connect, mint. Here's what actually happens.
Upload Your Artwork and Metadata
Choose an image file (PNG, JPG, or GIF). Add a name and symbol for the NFT, a description, and optionally a royalty percentage. The form sends your image and metadata to our backend. We upload the image and build a metadata JSON, then pin both to decentralized storage. Nothing is minted yet. We're just preparing the data that will be referenced on-chain.
Connect Your Wallet
Click "Connect Wallet" and approve the connection in your Solana wallet (Phantom, Solflare, or another compatible wallet). We use the standard wallet interface. We never see your keys. Your wallet address is used as the destination for the NFT and for any payment flow. You can disconnect at any time.
Mint On-Chain
When you hit "Mint", we build a single Solana transaction that creates the mint account, the token account, mints one token to your wallet, writes the Metaplex-style metadata (including the URI to your pinned metadata), and revokes mint authority. You sign that transaction in your wallet. We submit it to the network.
Once the transaction confirms, the NFT is in your wallet. You'll see it in your wallet's collectibles view. No extra steps, no claim page. It's yours.
What You Need
Before you start, have these ready.
- • A Solana wallet with enough SOL for the mint fee and transaction fees.
- • An image file and the metadata (name, symbol, description) you want on-chain.
No coding. No CLI. Just the web form and your wallet.
