Phantom Wallet for Token Deployment: The Clear Choice
When deploying a token through Spawned, your wallet choice directly impacts transaction success.
For developers launching on Solana, Phantom Wallet provides the most consistent and reliable connection to Spawned's token launchpad. Its deep integration with the Solana ecosystem means fewer connection errors and faster transaction confirmations. While other wallets work, Phantom's market dominance ensures Spawned's deployment process is tested and optimized for this specific combination.
The direct benefit is simplicity: you create your token economics, build your AI website, and handle all SOL transactions from a single, trusted interface. Considering the 0.30% holder reward system is built into your token from launch, using a stable wallet like Phantom for the initial deploy is recommended.
Step-by-Step: Connect & Deploy with Phantom Wallet
Follow this exact sequence to link your wallet and launch your token.
Prerequisites:
- Phantom Wallet browser extension installed and funded with at least 1.05 SOL (0.1 SOL launch fee + network costs).
- Your token details and website content prepared for Spawned's builder.
Connection & Deployment Steps:
- Navigate to Spawned.com: Open the site and click "Create Token" or "Launch Now."
- Initiate Wallet Connection: Click the wallet icon or "Connect Wallet" button on the launch dashboard.
- Select Phantom: From the pop-up wallet list, choose "Phantom." This will trigger a connection request in your Phantom extension.
- Authorize Connection: In the Phantom pop-up, review the permissions and click "Connect" to link the wallet to Spawned.
- Input Token Details: On the Spawned launchpad interface, fill in your token's name, symbol, supply, and description. Set the creator revenue to 0.30% (Spawned default).
- Build AI Website: Use the integrated builder to create your project page. This saves the $29-99/month you'd spend elsewhere.
- Review & Sign Deployment: A final summary shows your 0.1 SOL launch fee, perpetual 1% fee post-graduation (via Token-2022), and the 0.30% ongoing holder reward structure. Click "Deploy."
- Approve in Phantom: The transaction will appear in your Phantom window. Verify the details, including the recipient (Spawned's deploy contract) and the 0.1 SOL fee. Click "Approve" to sign and broadcast the transaction.
- Confirmation: Wait for on-chain confirmation. Your token address and project website URL will be generated.
What You're Signing: A Fee and Contract Breakdown
Understanding the contract calls ensures you know exactly what you're launching.
When you sign the deployment transaction with Phantom, you're authorizing several smart contract interactions. The primary cost is the 0.1 SOL (~$20) launch fee paid to Spawned. This single fee covers both the token deployment on Solana and the creation of your AI-generated project website.
Beyond the upfront fee, your approval sets the permanent token economics. This includes the 0.30% creator revenue on each trade (compared to 0% on platforms like pump.fun) and the unique 0.30% holder reward system that distributes fees back to long-term token holders. Finally, it implements the Token-2022 program logic for the 1% perpetual fee that activates upon graduation from the launchpad.
All these mechanics are bundled into the contract you sign. Phantom displays the total SOL amount for the transaction. The Spawned interface provides a detailed breakdown before you reach the signing step.
Phantom Connection & Deployment Troubleshooting
Quick fixes for the most common problems when connecting Phantom to Spawned.
Issue: Phantom Pop-up Not Appearing
- Solution: Ensure the Phantom extension is active (not blocked by your browser). Click the Phantom icon in your browser's toolbar and ensure you're on the mainnet network. Refresh the Spawned page and try connecting again.
Issue: Transaction Stuck or Failing
- Solution: This is often a network congestion or fee issue. In Phantom, check that you have enough SOL for the 0.1 SOL fee plus a small buffer (0.01-0.02 SOL) for network rent. You can also try increasing the priority fee in Phantom's advanced transaction settings before re-signing.
Issue: "Wallet Not Connected" After Linking
- Solution: Disconnect Spawned from within the Phantom extension (Settings > Trusted Apps > Revoke Spawned.com). Then, refresh Spawned.com and re-initiate the connection from scratch. Clear your browser cache if the problem continues.
Issue: Wrong Network Selected
- Solution: Spawned deploys on Solana Mainnet. In Phantom, click the network indicator at the top. It should say "Solana Mainnet." If it says "Devnet" or "Testnet," switch it to Mainnet. Your token will not deploy correctly on other networks.
After deployment, you can view your token's contract by clicking "View on Explorer" on your Spawned project dashboard.
Managing Your Launched Token in Phantom Wallet
Your work isn't done after deployment. Here's how to track and use your token.
After a successful deploy, your new SPL token won't automatically appear in Phantom. Follow these steps to view and manage it:
- Find Your Token Address: On your Spawned project dashboard, copy your new token's mint address.
- Add Custom Token in Phantom: In Phantom, go to your asset list and click the
+icon to "Add Custom Token." - Paste the Address: Paste your token's mint address into the field. Phantom should auto-fill the token name and symbol. Verify they are correct.
- Confirm: Click "Add." Your token balance (the creator supply you allocated to your wallet) will now appear.
- Sending Tokens: You can now send your token to other Solana addresses (for airdrops, promotions, team allocation) directly from within Phantom.
- Track Fees: Monitor the 0.30% creator revenue accruing from trades. This SOL revenue will accumulate in the wallet you used for deployment.
- Always verify the token name/symbol when adding the custom address.
- You can use Phantom to create token distribution lists for airdrops.
- The SOL fees you earn from the 0.30% creator fee will appear as regular SOL in your Phantom wallet.
Phantom vs. Other Wallets for Spawned Deployment
How does Phantom stack up against alternatives for this specific task?
| Feature | Phantom Wallet | Solflare (Browser Extension) | Backpack |
|---|---|---|---|
| Connection Reliability | Highest - Primary tested wallet for Spawned. | High - Standard Solana wallet protocol. | Medium - May require extra confirmation steps. |
| Transaction Signing Speed | Near-instant pop-up and signing. | Slight delay in pop-up appearance. | Can be slower, depends on XNFT load. |
| Fee Management | Simple, clear priority fee toggle. | Advanced fee options available. | Basic, integrated fee display. |
| Post-Deploy Token Add | One-click to add custom SPL token. | Manual token addition required. | Auto-detects some new tokens. |
| Best For | First-time deployers seeking reliability. | Users wanting granular fee control. | Developers already in the Backpack ecosystem. |
The takeaway: Phantom offers the most frictionless path from Spawned's interface to an on-chain token. Its design prioritizes clear, fast transactions, which is critical during the busy launch process where you're also finalizing a website. For a straightforward launch of a gaming token on Solana, starting with Phantom is advised.

Frequently Asked Questions
No. The deployment process on Spawned.com is designed for the Phantom browser extension on desktop. The mobile Phantom app does not support the connection protocol required for the integrated token launch and website builder. You must use the Chrome, Brave, Firefox, or Edge browser extension to initiate the deployment.
If a transaction fails on the Solana network (e.g., due to congestion or an error), the SOL for the 0.1 SOL launch fee is not deducted. You will only lose the small network fee for the attempted transaction (a fraction of a cent). You can safely retry the deployment on Spawned. Always check your Phantom transaction history to confirm the status.
The wallet used to deploy is the permanent creator authority for that specific token contract for functions like minting (if enabled). However, the 0.30% creator revenue from trades is sent to the wallet address that performed the launch. You cannot automatically redirect these fees to a different wallet after deployment. Choose your deployment wallet carefully.
Connecting a wallet grants permission for the website to request transactions from your wallet. It does not grant access to your private keys or the ability to move assets without your explicit approval for each transaction. Always verify every transaction pop-up from Phantom, ensuring it's for the correct action (e.g., deploying a contract) and amount (e.g., 0.1 SOL).
From clicking "Connect" to having a live token and website, the process typically takes 2-5 minutes. The slowest parts are manually inputting your token details and website content on Spawned. The actual blockchain transaction, once signed in Phantom, usually confirms in under 30 seconds. Having all your project information prepared beforehand speeds this up significantly.
You need at least 0.101 - 0.102 SOL to cover the 0.1 SOL launch fee and a small buffer for network transaction fees. However, it's strongly recommended to have at least 0.5 to 1 SOL in your wallet. This extra SOL is for any initial token transfers, providing liquidity, or covering potential priority fees if the network is busy.
Yes, you can deploy an unlimited number of unique tokens from a single Phantom wallet address. Each deployment will be a separate transaction costing 0.1 SOL and will create a distinct token contract. All creator fees from these different tokens will accumulate into the same Phantom wallet.
