💵 How to Create a Fixed Price Sale
Launching a Fixed Price Sale on DEXDock is a fantastic way to offer your community a straightforward, predictable, and accessible token distribution process. By setting a stable token price, you help participants plan their investments with confidence, encourage fair pricing, and simplify the overall sale experience. Below is a comprehensive guide, designed to walk you through the entire creation process—ensuring your Fixed Price Sale is both smooth and successful. ⚡️
Preparation
1. Testing on Sepolia
- Try Before You Buy: We strongly recommend running a test sale on Sepolia (or another test network) before going live. This extra step helps you validate your sale parameters, catch potential issues, and practice the sale creation flow—without risking real assets.
- Testing Strategy: Experiment with different token amounts, images, and sale durations to see how the interface behaves and refine your strategy for the mainnet launch.
2. Creation URL
When you’re ready to officially create your Fixed Price Sale, head over to the

page. This is the central hub for configuring your token sale details, previewing how everything will look, and finalizing your setup.
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Contract Address & Images
-
Enter a Valid ERC-20 Contract Address
Make sure the contract supports unrestricted transfers. Confirm via a test pool or by reviewing your smart contract code to ensure no hidden restrictions could affect the sale. -
Upload Project Token Images
- Token Image 🏷️: Aim for 400×400 resolution in either .jpg or .png format.
- Banner Image 🏷️: Use 620×200 resolution to ensure a crisp, professional look.
These visuals enhance the sale’s presentation, helping you stand out and allowing participants to easily identify your token.
-
Test Pools
If you’re uncertain about compatibility, consider creating a test pool to verify that your ERC-20 token behaves correctly within DEXDock.
Step 2: Configure Sale Parameters
-
Sale Type
Set your sale type to "Fixed Price", which ensures a constant, unchanging price from start to finish. -
Sale Duration
Define start and end times that work for your project’s marketing timeline and community availability. Take into account global time zones to capture the broadest audience. -
Optional Token Claim Delay
If you want to prevent immediate token dumps or add an extra safeguard, implement a token claim delay. This feature can be helpful if you’re looking to stagger the distribution and maintain price stability during early trading.
Step 3: Token & Sale Parameters
-
Token Price
Set a fixed value to eliminate the uncertainty of fluctuating prices. This approach can foster trust, especially among newcomers who prefer clear, predictable token costs. -
Token Quantity
Specify the total number of tokens available for sale. Make sure you have enough supply to meet anticipated demand but also maintain a reasonable level of scarcity. -
User Limits (Optional)
- Maximum Purchase Limits per Wallet: If you want to promote a more equitable distribution, consider setting caps on how many tokens each wallet can buy.
-
Minimum Tokens Sold (Optional)
- Threshold for Sale Success: Define a goal for the minimum number of tokens that must be sold for your sale to be considered successful. If this threshold is not reached, you can choose to refund participants or adjust your strategy accordingly.

Step 4: Project Information
-
Select Project Category
Assign a category (e.g., DeFi, Gaming, Social), which helps participants find sales that align with their interests. -
Add a Detailed Sale Description 📝
Provide an informative and engaging overview of your project, outlining what participants can expect and why your token is an exciting opportunity. -
Key Links
Share links to your website, whitepaper, or GitHub for in-depth resources. This builds trust by letting potential buyers learn more about your use case, team, and roadmap. -
Geo-Blocking
If necessary, restrict participation from regions that regulate or prohibit token sales. This step is especially important if you’re aiming to stay compliant with local and international laws. -
Optional: Prior Funding Rounds
Let participants know if you’ve conducted previous rounds of fundraising—like seed or private sales—to add transparency around your token’s circulation and overall supply dynamics.
Step 5: Socials & Community
-
Connect Twitter 🐦
- Required for your sale. Having an active Twitter feed can significantly boost your visibility and engagement, allowing you to broadcast updates, announcements, and progress in real time.
-
Add Discord (Optional) 💬
- A community hub where participants can ask questions, receive announcements, and connect with your team. It’s a powerful tool for fostering loyalty, gathering feedback, and building a thriving supporter base.
Step 6: Review
- Double-Check All Details ✔️
Carefully verify your pricing, sale duration, token quantities, and community info. This step ensures you spot errors or inconsistencies before your sale goes live. - Edit If Necessary
If you see something that needs adjusting or you’d like to rework your parameters, now’s the perfect time to do so. Once you finalize, you’ll have limited ability to change your sale settings.
Step 7: Terms & Conditions
- Agree to the Terms of Use
Take a moment to review DEXDock’s policies and guidelines. By agreeing, you’re confirming that you understand and comply with all requirements, helping protect both you and your participants.
Step 8: Confirm
-
Approve the Project Token
Use your connected wallet (e.g., MetaMask) to approve the token. This is a standard authorization step, ensuring that DEXDock can handle your token transactions properly. -
Finalize and Schedule ⏰
Once you’re satisfied with every detail, confirm the sale setup. You’ll see your sale scheduled for the dates and times you specified. Get ready to promote, engage your community, and track results through DEXDock’s dashboard.
By following these eight detailed steps, you’ll be well-prepared to launch a Fixed Price Sale that’s organized, accessible, and trusted by your community.
