How to Create Pool on Uniswap: ERC20 Pair Creation

Learn how to create a pair (pool) with your token and TKP on the Uniswap DEX.

If you’re a crypto startup’s owner who wants to expand the demand for your ERC20 cryptocurrency, read this article. With the help of Popular Altcoins DApp (for projects already listed on Tokpie), and Self-Listing DApp, your Token attracts new buyers, grows in liquidity and community power. However, to get listed on the DApp, you need to create a pool by providing your project’s tokens and TOKPIE (TKP). So, in the following paragraphs, you’ll find detailed instructions on how to make your token/TKP pair on the Uniswap decentralized exchange (DEX).

How to create a pool on Uniswap?

The pool creation on Uniswap requires having two currencies in your wallet and approximately 0.03 ETH to cover the gas fees. In the following example, we have used the BountyMarketCap (BMC) tokens to show you how to create a pair with TKP coins. 

1. Top up your wallet 

Top up your wallet (TrustWallet or Metamask) with TKP and your tokens (for example, BMC coins). Note that you can obtain TOKPIE (TKP) ERC20 cryptocurrency on Uniswap. Also, don’t forget that you must have around 0.03 ETH for paying the gas cost. 

2. Open Uniswap’s Liquidity page.

Go to the page of adding liquidity on Uniswap and connect it with your wallet (TrustWallet or Metamask).

TIP: Alternatively, you can open a liquidity page by adding your ERC20 Token’s address to the link below:

3. Create a pool (pair)

Select the tokens (your Coin and TKP) on the liquidity page. Then, enter the number of coins. Note that you can set any ratio of coins you add. So, in that way, you set the price of your currency in this pool. 

After that, click on the Approve button for your Coin and confirm through the wallet. Also, click on the Approve button for TKP and prove it again.

Select tokens and Enter amounts
Setup the “Adding Liquidity” page.

Once done, press the Supply button and confirm via wallet.

Click on Supply button
Press the “Supply” button.

In addition, the Uniswap app shows you the resulting rates and requires final confirmation (screenshot below). So, click on the Create Pool & Supply button and confirm through your wallet to finalize the pair creation.

Final confirmation
Press the “Create Pool & Supply” to proceed.

Congratulations! You have completed the pool creation, and a new pair is available for trading on Uniswap V2.  

How can I get the pool address?

After pool creation, open your wallet on Etherscan and click on the last outcoming address as shown below.

Profit from the Pool

By adding liquidity you’ll earn 0.3% of all trades on this pair proportional to your share of the pool. Also, note that the fees accrue in real-time by adding to the pool. Moreover, you can claim the funds by withdrawing your liquidity at any time.
