How to Create an Initial Moon Offering (IMO)

Moonpad's Initial Moon Offerings (IMOs) provide a seamless, no-code fundraising solution for token creators. This guide will walk you through the steps to create an IMO for your token on Moonpad.

Important Notice

  • Moonpad's IMO is a self-serve platform and IMO fee is non-refundable. It is project's responsibility to correctly setup the IMO. IMO fee is 499 IOTA for the setup + 5% of the initial liquidity if IMO is successful.

  • Ensure that all information is accurate and complete before submitting, as changes cannot be made once the form is submitted.

  • Don't create IMO with a token that's already in a Liquidity Pool as the IMO will be cancelled.

  • Projects need to provide tokens both for Initial Moon Offering and for Initial Liquidity.

  • IMO does NOT support tokens with buy/sell tax.

Step 1: Access Moonpad's IMO Feature

  1. Navigate to Moonpad: Open your web browser and go to the Moonpad dApp.

  2. Connect Wallet: Ensure you are logged in to your wallet provider and have your wallet connected to IOTA EVM network.

Step 2: Enter Token Address

Once you are in the IMO creation section, you will need to fill in the details of your IMO token.

  1. Select IMO Token:

    • Token Address: Enter the address of the token you want to offer in the IMO.

Step 3: Enter IMO Parameters

Fill in the parameters for your IMO.

  5. HardCap:

    • Description: This is automatically calculated as Token IMO amount * Token price.

  6. Burn Remaining Tokens:

Step 4: Set IMO Period

Define the duration of your IMO.

  1. Start Date:
