Free launches
From October 8, 2026 at 14:00 UTC, seven days after $TPAD launches, the launch fee for tokens created on Townpad is covered by Townpad.
How it's funded
$TPAD has a 3% creator tax on every trade. Half of that revenue goes to the community, and part of the community share pays for new launches. See Fee allocation.
What's covered
| Item | Covered? |
|---|---|
| Launch fee | Yes, refunded to the creator's wallet after a successful launch |
| Network gas | No, paid by the creator |
| Opening buy | No, it's your own purchase |
Good to know
- You still need a little ETH in your wallet to launch, because the fee is paid at launch and refunded afterwards.
- Only launches made through Townpad qualify.
- Free launches are funded by real trading revenue. To keep the program sustainable, Townpad may set a daily limit or pause it if funds run low. Any change will be announced on @townpads.
