Once your wallet is connected to our site, you are ready to start creating NFTs! Whether it's pictures of your garden or the next Mona Lisa, almost anything can be tokenized! Here is a step-by-step guide to getting you on the right path to minting your NFT.
STEP 1. Begin the token creation process
Click the 'Create' button that is located in the upper right-hand corner of the
Rarible homepage.
STEP 2. Choose to create a single or multiple editions of your NFT
You will then be presented with two options for how many editions of the
NFT you would like to create.
- Single - One edition of your token. Also referred to as a 1/1.
- Multiple - More than one edition of your token.
STEP 3. Upload your file
Select the file that you would like to tokenize. Please make sure to review
your product as you will not be able to go back and edit your NFT. If you notice any
mistakes after the NFT has been created, you may have to burn the NFT and re-mint
it afterward to correct it.
STEP 4. Adjust your listing's settings
Here you will be able to choose to list your token for sale.
- Fixed price - A static price that cannot be raised once lowered.
- Timed auction - An auction with a time limit of 1 to 7 days. You can also select
a future calendar date for the expiry of the auction. - Open for bids - Leave the token open for bidding. The vendor of the token will be
able to select which bid they want to sell the token for.
STEP 5. Unlockable content
Unlockable content may be activated for your token. You can include
a code to redeem or link to a file, or even a digital key!
STEP 6. Describe your token and determine royalties
Select the collection that you would like to store your token with. Now is the time to choose a meaningful title and description. Please make sure to review the grammar and spelling here, as you will not be able to change them later.
Additionally, select the royalties that you would like to be applied to future sales of your NFT. Once you are done, press 'Create item'.
STEP 7. Blockchain transaction to tokenize your file
You will now be minting your token on the blockchain. Via your wallet, a transaction will be sent for you to confirm or reject. There will be a cost associated with minting your token. Please note that Rarible does not control the price of gas fees for using the Ethereum blockchain. If gas is particularly high, you can wait until a slower part of the day to decide to mint your token.
STEP 8. Blockchain transaction to tokenize your file (continued)
Two more notifications to sign transactions onto the blockchain will appear. There will be no cost associated with these. Please make sure that there are no interruptions in signing these next two transactions.
STEP 9. Completion!
Your token should now be minted! If an auction was selected to start after listing, you should see that now running when you review your profile. From here, you'll be able to market your token to reach a potential buyer!
