The Problem
Traditional solutions are complex, time-consuming, and often require technical expertise.
The Solution
Spawned provides an AI-powered platform that makes building fast, simple, and accessible to everyone.
Why Phantom Customization Matters
A customized token attracts 3x more initial holders than an unknown asset.
Customizing your token in Phantom is not optional for a professional launch. A token without a logo appears as a generic 'Unknown' asset, which significantly reduces trust and increases the likelihood of being dismissed as a scam. By taking 15 minutes to complete this integration, you signal legitimacy and make it easier for holders to manage their investments.
Phantom is the dominant wallet on Solana, with over 3 million monthly active users. Appearing correctly here is your token's first impression. The process also involves linking your token's metadata to Solana explorers, creating a cohesive identity across the entire ecosystem. Learn more about launching on Solana.
Prerequisites Before You Start
Ensure you have the following ready before beginning the Phantom customization process. Missing any item will delay your token's public appearance.
- A token already launched on Spawned.com (0.1 SOL fee paid).
- Your token's mint address (available in your Spawned dashboard).
- A high-quality logo file (PNG format, 256x256 pixels recommended, transparent background).
- A finalized token name and symbol (matching your Spawned launch details).
- A short description (2-3 sentences) explaining your token's purpose.
- Your project's official website or social media links (the AI website builder page works perfectly).
Step-by-Step Phantom Integration Guide
Integration is a technical but straightforward process centered on a GitHub submission.
Follow these steps in order to submit your token's metadata to Phantom's registry. The process is free and typically takes 24-48 hours for approval.
Step 1: Prepare Your Assets Gather your logo (256x256px PNG), a 200-character description, and links. Ensure the token name and symbol are exactly as minted.
Step 2: Visit the Token List Repository
Phantom pulls data from the trusted Solana Token List repository on GitHub. You need to submit a Pull Request (PR) to add your token. Navigate to the official solana-token-list repository.
Step 3: Fork and Edit the Repository
Fork the repo, then edit the src/tokens/solana.tokenlist.json file. Add a new entry for your token following the exact JSON structure of existing entries. You must include the mint address, name, symbol, decimals, logoURI, and extensions for your website.
Step 4: Highlight Spawned-Specific Features In your token's entry, you can reference the unique Spawned features in the description. For example: "Holder rewards: 0.30% of every trade distributed to holders. Launched via Spawned.com."
Step 5: Submit the Pull Request Submit your PR with a clear title like 'Add [YOUR TOKEN SYMBOL]'. The maintainers will review it. Ensure your logo URI is a permanent, direct link (your Spawned AI website's asset folder is ideal).
Step 6: Verification & Explorer Sync Once merged, Phantom updates automatically. Simultaneously, verify your token on Solscan and Explorer.solana.fm by searching for your mint address. They often auto-pull the same list data.
Displaying Spawned Features in Phantom
A key advantage of launching on Spawned is the built-in economic features for creators and holders. While Phantom's primary display shows basic info, you can guide users to understand your token's benefits.
Holder Rewards (0.30%): This ongoing reward is a major selling point. In your token's description on the list, explicitly state: '0.30% of every trade is redistributed to holders.' This differentiates your token from static assets. New holders will see this when they discover your token in Phantom's 'Add Token' search.
Post-Graduation Structure: For tokens that graduate from the initial bonding curve, the 1% perpetual fee sustains the project. This can be mentioned on your project's website, which should be linked in the token's extensions. The AI website builder from Spawned creates a perfect page to explain this lifecycle, from launch to graduation and beyond. See how gaming tokens use this structure.
Creator Revenue Transparency: The 0.30% creator fee is a backend mechanism. While not displayed in Phantom, being upfront about it on your website builds trust compared to platforms with hidden zero fees that may lack sustainability.
Troubleshooting: Token Not Showing Correctly
Most display issues stem from incorrect image links or pending GitHub reviews.
If your token isn't appearing with its logo or details in Phantom after 48 hours, check these common issues.
Problem: Logo shows as broken or default.
Solution: Your logoURI link is likely invalid. The link must be a direct URL to the image file (ending in .png), not a link to a webpage displaying the image. Host the image on a reliable, permanent service. The asset folder from your Spawned AI website provides a stable URL.
Problem: Token not found in Phantom's search. Solution: Your PR might not be merged yet. Check the GitHub repository for your PR status. Also, ensure the token mint address in your PR is 100% correct. A single wrong character will cause failure.
Problem: Description or name is wrong. Solution: Updates to the token list require a new PR. You cannot edit the live entry directly. Submit a correction PR.
Problem: Holder asks about the 0.30% reward visibility. Solution: The reward distribution is an on-chain program interaction. It won't show as a separate transaction in Phantom. Direct holders to your token's specific page on a Solana explorer like Solscan, where they can see the tax distributions in the transaction log. Explain this mechanism on your website.
Integration Support: Spawned vs. Other Platforms
Spawned provides the infrastructure and guidance others leave as an exercise for the creator.
How does the post-launch support for wallet integration compare?
| Feature | Spawned.com | Other Common Launchpads |
|---|---|---|
| Wallet Guide | Detailed, technical guide (this one) provided for Phantom, Solflare. | Often just a link to the token list repo with no instructions. |
| Asset Hosting | AI website builder includes permanent asset hosting for logos. | You must find and pay for your own image hosting (Imgur, etc.). |
| Fee Visibility | Guide covers how to communicate the 0.30% holder reward in description. | Rarely addressed; fees are often opaque or non-existent. |
| Post-Launch Path | Clear steps for the 1% fee structure after graduation. | Little to no guidance on sustaining the project post-launch. |
Spawned provides the tools and guidance not just to launch, but to establish a lasting token presence. The AI website builder, often a $29-$99/month value elsewhere, is included specifically to host your assets and explain your tokenomics, directly supporting this integration phase.

Frequently Asked Questions
After you submit a correct Pull Request to the Solana Token List repository, the review and merge process typically takes 24 to 48 hours. Once merged, Phantom's app updates its cache periodically, so users should see the changes within a day or two. The timeline depends on GitHub maintainer review speed.
No, submitting your token to the official Solana Token List for Phantom display is completely free. The only costs incurred are the initial token launch fee on Spawned (0.1 SOL) and potential gas fees for any on-chain metadata updates if you use a Metaplex Certified Collection, which is optional.
Phantom's interface does not have a dedicated field for displaying reward rates. The standard method is to include this information in your token's 'description' field within the token list entry. For example: 'Includes a 0.30% reward distributed to holders on every trade.' Holders can also verify this by checking the transaction details on Solscan.
After graduation, your token moves to a concentrated liquidity pool. The 1% perpetual fee structure takes effect. This change is managed by the Token-2022 program on-chain. It's important to update your project's website (like the one from Spawned's AI builder) to explain this new phase, as Phantom's basic info will still show the core token details from the list.
The most common issue is an incorrect `logoURI`. Ensure the link ends with `.png` (or `.jpg`) and that it points directly to the image file itself, not a webpage that contains the image. Test the link by pasting it into a new browser tab—it should display only the image. Using the direct asset link from your Spawned AI website is a reliable solution.
Yes, but the process is often similar. Many Solana wallets, including Solflare, use the same community-maintained Solana Token List. Submitting your token there often covers multiple wallets. However, some wallets like Backpack may have their own list or verification process. Always check each wallet's documentation, but starting with the main token list is the primary step.
The integrated AI website builder solves two key problems for Phantom integration. First, it provides permanent, reliable hosting for your token's logo image, which you need for the `logoURI`. Second, it creates a canonical website you can link in the token's extensions, where you can fully explain your tokenomics, the 0.30% holder rewards, and the project's roadmap, giving users context beyond Phantom's short description.
