Create a token
Besides workflows, Toolblox can create a plain token (an ERC-20 coin) in a few clicks. Tokens are handy as a currency inside your own workflows, as loyalty points or rewards, or as a governance token for voting — no coding required.
Start a new token
On the home screen open the New… menu and choose New Token/Coin (you can also click Create token instead in the Generate smart-contract window). This opens Token management.
Fill in the details
| Field | What it means |
|---|---|
| Token name (min 3 characters) | The full name, e.g. Air Miles. |
| Token symbol (3–5 characters) | The ticker, e.g. MILE. |
| Initial supply | How many tokens to create at launch. |
| Decimals | How divisible each token is (18 is the usual choice). |
| Template | The capabilities to include (see below). |
Choose the capabilities (Template)
Switch on only what you need:
| Capability | What it adds |
|---|---|
| ERC-20 | The standard token: balances, transfers and approvals. |
| Mintable | The owner can create more tokens later. |
| Burnable | Tokens can be destroyed, reducing the supply. |
| Votes | Tracks voting power for on-chain governance. |
| Permit | Approve spending with a signature (handy for gasless approvals). |
| IERC7802 | A cross-chain mint/burn interface for bridging. |
Deploy it
Deploying a token works exactly like deploying a workflow: pick a blockchain, connect your wallet, and hit Deploy. Start on a testnet — it's free.
Use it in a workflow
Once your token is deployed, it appears as a selectable Currency whenever you deploy a workflow that handles payments. That lets your workflow charge or pay out in your token instead of the network's native coin. See Token payments.
Create and test your token on the same testnet as the workflow that will use it, so you can try the whole thing end to end for free.
