Launching takes one wallet approval and about a minute. The launch wizard walks these 5 steps; here is what each one decides.

1. 01Name itName, symbol and image. The image is pinned through pump.fun and cannot be changed after launch, so check it.
2. 02PairPick a real thing (Big Mac, Labubu, potato…) or one of the 155 whitelisted tokens. A real thing settles in its closest listed stock (Big Mac → MCDx, potato → Costco's COST); USDC is an opt-out.
3. 03Initial buyOptional. Buy the first tokens off your own curve, paid in the paired asset. Leave it empty to skip.
4. 04LinksWebsite, X and Telegram. Optional, public, and also permanent.
5. 05ReviewRead the summary, then approve once in your wallet. anypad is the creator and takes a 3% fee on every trade (pump.fun's default rate instead if you opted into USDC).

After launch you land on the coin's page: chart, buy/sell, its Thing Index panel, and the creator vault. Open the launch wizard.

anypad launches Solana coins priced in something other than SOL. The speciality is pairing a coin with a real thing — a Big Mac, a Labubu, a Costco hot dog, or a grocery staple like a potato — so its price, market cap and treasury read in that thing. You can also pair with any of the 155 tokens on pump.fun's quote whitelist.

Under the hood every coin is a pump.fun Custom Pair: it is created with pump.fun's create_v2 instruction and a whitelisted mint as the quote asset, so the bonding curve is priced in that mint and every trade pays the creator fee in it. For a real thing, that mint is the tokenised stock closest to it — MCDx for a Big Mac, Costco's COST for groceries and fuel, AAPLx for AirPods — or USDC if the launcher opts out.

This is not an offering or a brokerage. Where a token pair is a tokenized stock, it is a token issued by a third party (xStocks by Backed Finance, or Backpack Securities) that tracks a listed equity; the issuer is named on every tile.

A real thing is a unit of account. The coin's numbers exist in its settlement asset on-chain (the closest stock, or USDC); this site converts them to dollars at the stock's live price and divides by the thing's Thing Index price to display it. Live example, using today's rates:

1 BIGMAC

one Big Mac in the US (The Economist Big Mac index) = $6.22 (Jul 2026)

$10.00 of a coin

= 1.61 Big Macs

A $100.00 treasury

= 16.08 Big Macs

Same treasury in POTATO

= 102 potatoes (at $0.98 1 lb of white potatoes)

If the Big Mac goes to $6.84

the same treasury reads 14.62 Big Macs — fewer, because each one costs more

That is the whole mechanism. It is a display convention, not a peg: the settlement asset in the vault does not change when the index moves, only how many things it is worth.

The Thing Index is the price list behind every real-thing coin: 151 things in 7 groups, each with one published source you can open. There are three kinds of source.

If a live source is unreachable the last known value is shown and labelled last known in the table below. Right now 151 of 151 things are quoting live. A thing that stops being published would freeze a coin's denomination, so only series with a current data point are on the list.

pump.fun charges a creator fee on every trade. For a custom pair that fee is paid in the quote asset: a coin paired with a Big Mac pays in MCDx, a coin paired with NVDAx pays in NVDAx, a coin paired with Fartcoin pays in Fartcoin.

Rate: 3%

Coins are created with pump.fun's configurable creator fee set to 3% of each trade, the program's current maximum, written into the create instruction and fixed after launch. Exception: pump.fun refuses a custom rate on SOL and on USDC (the one quote whitelisted directly on its Global account), so USDC-settled coins pay pump.fun's default creator fee schedule instead.

Who: anypad

anypad is named as the creator on every coin launched here, so the fee accrues to the anypad vault for that quote asset: CyuJP1eYS4LH49nAZtWmfBdKUp7jVupWAjaEJQcGcDQrThe launching wallet pays only the network fee and any first buy.

Holders

Holders get the coin. Nothing pays holders. The coin page shows the vault balance in the paired asset (or in the real thing the coin is priced in) so anyone can see what a coin has generated.

Every one of these is a pump.fun program instruction signed by your wallet. anypad builds the transaction and relays it; it never holds a key, a token, or a fee.

On-chain, exactly what pump.fun's quote whitelist allows: 155 mints when the catalogue was last regenerated from chain, grouped as dumb things, stocks, crypto, sports. Names, symbols and decimals are read from each mint's own metadata; nothing is hand-curated except the grouping.

The chosen mint is re-checked against the live whitelist at launch time. If pump.fun delists it, launching with it is refused before you sign. There is no way to make an unlisted mint the on-chain quote — which is why real things settle in a whitelisted stock and live in the denomination layer instead.

Quote assets differ in decimals (5 to 12) and token program, so amounts on the launch, trade and treasury screens are always scaled per asset from on-chain data.

An initial buy is a second transaction sent right after the create lands; your wallet approves both at once. The amount you type is the most you can spend, with a 1% slippage floor on tokens received. If the buy fails, the coin still exists and only its network fee was spent. Coin metadata, including the image and links, is pinned through pump.fun and cannot be edited after launch.

A dash means no data yet, not zero.
