Last updated
The Mint Groups page empowers creators to manage and customize the mechanics of their minting phases. Mint groups represent distinct phases in the minting process, each with its own unique settings such as price, supply, and start time.
This feature provides creators with the flexibility to fine-tune their minting strategy to suit their project's goals.
Key Features and Actions:
Manage Mint Group Priority and Visibility
Creators can adjust the priority of mint groups and toggle their visibility with ease. By clicking the Edit mint groups
button, creators can reorder groups to establish their desired sequence and control whether a group is displayed on the mint page.
Add New Mint Groups
If additional minting phases are required, creators can click the + Add mint group
button to create new groups.
Important Note: Newly created mint groups will need individual setup to become functional. This includes defining details such as:
Mint price
Maximum supply
Maximum mints per wallet
Start and end timestamps
Why Mint Groups Matter
Mint groups offer a strategic way to engage different audiences, such as whitelist participants, partners, and the general public. By defining distinct mint phases, creators can:
Reward early supporters with exclusive pricing.
Control supply and limit over-minting.
Provide transparency with clear start and end times for each phase.

Mint Groups Management
Effectively managing mint groups is essential for creating a seamless and strategic minting process. Mint groups enable creators to define distinct phases within their mint, each tailored to specific audiences or purposes. Here's how you can set up and optimize your mint groups:
Key Steps to Manage Mint Groups
Assign a Clear and Descriptive Name
Choose a name that reflects the purpose of the mint group (e.g., "GTD Phase", "FCFS Phase", "Public Mint").
A clear name helps both creators and participants quickly identify the group.
Provide a Brief Description
Add a concise explanation of the mint group’s purpose and any key details.
For example: "Exclusive mint phase for early supporters with discounted pricing."
Specify Minting Price
Set the price for minting within the group.
This allows you to offer flexible pricing strategies for different user segments (e.g., discounted rates for whitelisted users).
Define Total Supply
Control supply by specifying the maximum number of NFTs that can be minted in this phase.
Helps maintain value and exclusivity for the collection.
Limit Mints Per Wallet
Encourage fair distribution by restricting the number of mints allowed per wallet.
Prevents large-scale purchases by a single user and promotes wider participation.
Control Visibility
Decide whether the mint group should be:
Public: Open to everyone.
Private: Restricted to specific users or wallet addresses.
Special Access: Accessible only with a pass or invite.
Why Mint Groups Matter
Mint groups provide the flexibility to:
Engage Different Audiences: Create targeted minting phases for whitelisted users, partners, or the public.
Maintain Scarcity: Control supply and prevent over-minting.
Encourage Fair Distribution: Ensure that all participants have an equal opportunity to mint.
Implement Strategic Control: Decide who can access specific phases, maximizing community engagement and project success.
By thoughtfully managing your mint groups, you can create a minting process that is both efficient and equitable, ensuring a positive experience for participants while aligning with your project's goals.
Setting up mint group allowlists
There are 2 ways of settings up an allowlist:
1. Snapshot Method
The snapshot feature is a quick and automated way to create an allowlist by pulling data directly from an existing NFT contract. All you need to do is input a valid NFT contract address, and the system will handle the rest.
How It Works:
The system scans the contract for wallet addresses that hold NFTs from it.
You can choose how to allocate mints:
Static Allocation: Everyone on the snapshot gets the same mint allocation.
Token Balance-Based Allocation: Each wallet’s allocation is based on how many NFTs they hold at the time the snapshot is taken.
Perfect For: Rewarding current NFT holders or automatically creating a list without needing to upload anything.
2. CSV Upload Method
If you want more control over who gets access and how much they’re allocated, the CSV upload method is your go-to option. This lets you manually specify which wallets should be on the list and their allocation amounts.
How It Works:
Create a CSV file with two columns: one for wallet addresses and one for allocation amounts.
Upload the file, and voilà—your custom allowlist is ready.
Perfect For: Partner collaborations, custom whitelists, or any situation where you already have a specific list of wallets in mind.
Which Option Should You Choose?
Use Snapshot if you’re looking for an automated and effortless way to reward existing NFT holders.
Use CSV Upload if you need full control or have a pre-made list of addresses and allocations.
Both methods are designed to make your life easier while giving you the flexibility to run your project the way you want. Whether you’re automating with a snapshot or going manual with a CSV, we’ve got you covered!
Here's a sample csv file for our allowlist
Note: column A should be a checksum valid wallet address, and column B should be the mint quota
Can we add more mint groups post deployment?
Yes, on our mint group page you can add more anytime, just dont forget to set up the mint details accordingly
Are we able to mint more if the mint cap on mint group 1 is lesser than mint group 2?
Yes, mintgroups has individual counters for both mint quota
and max mint cap
As a creator, can I transfer the supply of a mint group that hasnt been minted?
Yes, creators can transfer supply to any other mintgroups as long as the sum of all mintgroups does not exceed the total supply for the contract.
