​
Overview

Mint gates are access forms that control who can participate in your mint. They give creators the ability to add requirements, tasks, or checks that whitelist applicants must complete before being approved for the whitelist. Think of them as customizable “entry conditions” for your NFT drop.

​
Key features

For Creators / Artists:
  • Control access: Decide exactly who can mint by setting eligibility rules.
  • Custom requirements: Add wallet checks, NFT holdings, Discord membership, or X (Twitter) follows.
  • Collector engagement: Collect details or require tasks (like social follows) before whitelist approval.
  • Flexible setup: Gates can be created even before contract deployment.
For Minters / Users:
  • Transparent requirements: See exactly what’s needed to qualify for a whitelist.
  • Easy verification: Confirm eligibility by connecting a wallet or completing simple tasks.
  • Fair participation: Gates ensure equal opportunities, reducing spam or bot registrations.

Setting up a mint gate

Before setting up a Gate, make sure:
  • You have a published Mint Page (this acts as the base for your collection).
  • A deployed contract is not required yet, but the Mint Page must exist.

Whitelist applicants

Whitelist applicants are the users who have been approved for the whitelist. They are not yet added in the contract allowlist yet as you will be needing to set their mint quota in the contract first. Managing whitelist applicants You can go to submissions tab to see all the whitelist applicants. This is where you will see all the whitelist applicants. You can choose to accept or reject these applicants and even export them in your liking. Mint Gate Submissions Acceptance
Note that the columns will vary depending on the gate you opened. For example, if you opened a gate that requires the X Follow Checker, you will see the X tags of the applicants and you can export them in your liking.
Adding accepted applicants to the contract allowlist Pre-requisites:
  • You must have a deployed contract.
You can add accepted applicants to the contract allowlist by moving accepted submissions to the whitelist. You are also able to move applicants back to submissions tab if you want to reject them. Mint Gate Contract Tab After moving the applicants to the whitelist, all accepted applicants will be added to the contract allowlist and will be removed in this table. To manage whitelists you can go to the mintgroup’s whitelist management tab.
