💻How to Create an Auto Presale

When finalizing an Auto Presale on SolSale, you will need to confirm two transactions

With an Automatic Presale, you must lock a percentage of the raise which will automatically be added to liquidity on your chosen DEX upon finalization. This is typically used for final fundraising rounds where immediate liquidity is essential

You can also set your Burn & Earn or Lock & Earn fee during the presale creation process. If you haven't created your token yet, we recommend creating a Simple Token

Step 2. Entering in your Address

Enter your token's contract address and click Next. Ensure Auto is selected before proceeding.

Step 3. Sale Details

Listing DEX: Here you choose which DEX you want to add your liquidity to. We support Raydium, Raydium OpenBook, Meteora and also Orca. For example: Raydium
Fund Raising Token: This is the token you are raising funds in and it will also be your liquidity. You can choose between SOL, USDC1 and USDC. For example: SOL
Presale Rate: How many of your tokens investors receive per 1 unit of the Fund Raising Token.
- If Fund Raising Token is SOL: Enter tokens per 1 SOL
- If Fund Raising Token is USDC: Enter tokens per 1 USDC
Example: 800,000 (meaning 1 SOL = 800,000 tokens)
DEX Listing Rate: How many of your tokens traders receive per 1 unit of the Fund Raising Token on the DEX.
- If Fund Raising Token is SOL: Enter tokens per 1 SOL
- If Fund Raising Token is USDC: Enter tokens per 1 USDC
Example: 750,000 (meaning 1 SOL = 750,000 tokens on DEX)

Reward early investors by offering more tokens per SOL/USDC in the presale than on the DEX. For example, if your DEX rate is 750,000 tokens per SOL, you might set your presale rate at 800,000-850,000.

DEX Liquidity %: This is the percentage of the raise that will go to liquidity automatically upon the finalisation of the sale. The minimum is 11%. For example: 60
DEX Fee Tier (Raydium Burn & Earn or Meteora Lock & Earn only): Select the transaction fee percentage you'll earn after launch:
- Raydium: Maximum 4%
- Meteora: Maximum 6%
Example: 0.5%

Liquidity Options: Choose how your liquidity will be managed:
Raydium:
- Burn & Earn: LP tokens are burned (destroyed permanently). You earn trading fees indefinitely but can never withdraw liquidity.
- Lock LP: LP tokens are locked for a set time period, then unlocked. You don't earn fees, but you regain full access to your liquidity after the lock expires. Example: Burn & Earn
Meteora:
- Lock & Earn: LP tokens are locked permanently. You earn trading fees indefinitely but can never withdraw liquidity.
- Burn LP: LP tokens are burned (destroyed permanently). No fee earnings, no liquidity recovery. Example: Lock & Earn
If you choose "Lock LP" or "Lock & Earn" you will need to fill out the below option:
- Liquidity Lock (Days): This is how long you will lock liquidity for, the minimum is 7 days. For example: 90

The liquidity can always be re-locked for a longer period

Soft Cap: This is the minimum you must raise in order for the sale to be successful. Please note the softcap needs to be at least 11% of the hardcap! For example: 40
Hard Cap: This is the maximum you can raise in your sale. After the hardcap is met your sale will end. For example: 100
Minimum Buy: The minimum amount investors can buy in your presale. For example: 0.1
Maximum Buy: The maximum amount investors can buy in your presale. For example: 2
Start Date: This is the date you want your sale to begin.
End Date: This is the date you want your sale to end.

We usually recommend that a sale should last 48-72 hours.

Estimated Launch: The target date and time for your DEX listing.
This is your planned launch time, but launching is entirely manual:
- Finalize early if the Hardcap is reached
- Finalize later if you need more time—the sale ends on schedule, but you control when the DEX listing happens
You must click FINALIZE to launch on the DEX. It will not happen automatically

Step 4. Access Type, Referrals & Vesting

Presale Type: Choose between Whitelist or Public.

Whitelist: Only pre-approved wallet addresses can participate
Public: Open to all investors without restrictions

Whitelist Settings (if Whitelist is selected):

Whitelist Timer (seconds): Set how long your whitelisted investors have exclusive access before the sale opens to the public (if the Hardcap hasn't been reached).
Add WL Tier: Create multiple whitelist rounds with tiered access. Each tier gets its own timer and priority:
- Tier 1: First access for the duration you set
- Tier 2: Second access window, Tier 1 wallets can also participate
- Tier 3: Third access window, Tier 1 and Tier 2 wallets can also participate
- Continue adding tiers as needed

Note: Earlier tiers retain access in all subsequent rounds. If all timers expire and the Hardcap hasn't been met, the sale automatically becomes Public.

Referral System (optional)

Enable Referral System: Activate this to allow participants to earn rewards by sharing their unique referral link.
Referral Type: Choose your reward structure:
- Reward Pool: A percentage of the total raise is set aside and split among all referrers based on their contribution Example: If you set 3% and the sale raises 100 SOL, 3 SOL is distributed proportionally among all referrers
- Affiliate: Referrers earn a direct percentage from each purchase made through their link Example: If you set 4% and someone buys $100 worth, the referrer earns $4
Reward Percent (1-20%):
- Percentage of total raise allocated to the referral pool. Recommended: 2-3% Example: 1%
- For Affiliate: Percentage earned per individual purchase. Recommended: 2-3% Example: 1%

Sale Vesting (optional)

Add Sale Vesting: Enable token vesting to distribute presale tokens gradually over time.
Token Release on Launch (%): Percentage of tokens claimable immediately upon sale finalization. Example: 20%
Cliff (days): Waiting period after launch before the next token release begins. Example: 30 days
Token Release per Vesting Cycle (%): Percentage of tokens released in each vesting period. Example: 10%
Vesting Period Each Cycle (days): How often tokens are released after the cliff ends. Example: 14 days
Example Vesting Schedule: Using the examples above, your token distribution would work as follows:
- At Launch: 20% claimable immediately
- Days 1-30: Cliff period (no releases)
- Day 44: First vesting release of 10% (30-day cliff + 14-day cycle)
- Every 14 days after: Additional 10% released until fully vested

Step 6. Select Sale Package:

Choose between the Simple, Standard or Premium Package.

⬜ Simple → there is no border around your sale, you also can not add KYC and AUDIT badges

Standard → Your presale has a border around the sale card, you can add KYC and AUDIT badges on the sale (please note: KYC and AUDIT are not included in the price of 3 SOL)

Premium → Your presale has a Premium border around the sale card, you can add KYC and AUDIT badges on the sale (please note: KYC and AUDIT are not included in the price of 5 SOL), and you get a buy bot in the main GemPad Telegram Chat
