Straight answers.

Numbers come from the same file every page reads. Anything not decided yet is a marked placeholder, never a guess.

What CREATE is

What is CREATE?

CREATE is an independent creative studio for Pump.fun communities: bring a coin or name a character, and walk out with a brand kit, memes and 6-15 second motion clips. $CREATE trades on Pump.fun paired with PUMP, with a 2% creator fee split three ways: PUMP burn, $CREATE buy-and-burn and a Creative Rewards Fund.

Two doors lead into one workspace. Bring your token building: paste a CA and start making. Launch a community building: name a coin, describe its character and get its brand kit. From there you make memes building and 6-15 second motion clips building, then publish a Callout Kit building.

Who makes the motion clips?

Claude writes each clip as a short piece of canvas code from your prompt and your brand kit. The code runs in a sandbox in your browser (no network access), plays as a seamless loop and records to video. You get the clip and the code. Claude is named only because it is the AI the Studio uses; Anthropic has nothing to do with CREATE.

What does a motion clip cost?

Clips are paid per render in USDC on Solana: USDC per render: set at launch. You see the exact amount before your wallet asks you to sign. Brand kits and memes are free. Credit packs planned and subscriptions planned are not built yet.

Render payments go to the treasury and pay the Claude API bill, storage and hosting. Trading fees never fund operations.

What if a render fails after I pay?

The server checks your payment on-chain before it calls Claude. If Claude cannot produce a valid clip, the payment is flagged for a refund and you can retry the same render with the same payment, up to three attempts. Nothing is kept silently.

Who’s Bop?

Bop is CREATE’s mascot: a white vinyl gumdrop with a pink cursor antenna, big headphones and a hoodie. Passive-aggressive, cocky, never mean. He already knew your coin would work. He stars in the demo reel, stands in on memes until your coin has art, walks the live room, and his crew wears the Callout Quests levels.

What is “Made on CREATE”?

The Explore gallery on the home page: coins people brought into Studio, with how many kits, memes, clips and Callout Kits were made for them. The counts are real and nothing is seeded. CREATE stores the coin (its address, name, ticker and image link) and the counts, never who made them. Meme and Callout Kit downloads count once per visitor per coin per day.

Want a coin taken off the gallery? Message us on X and the operator hides it.

Do I need to buy $CREATE to use Studio?

No. Studio is open to every wallet, and brand kits and memes need no wallet at all. You sign with your own wallet only when you pay for a clip, and CREATE never asks for a private key or a seed phrase.

$CREATE and the fees

What are the fees on $CREATE?

$CREATE trades on Pump.fun paired with PUMP. Every trade carries a 2% creator fee, paid in PUMP, on top of Pump.fun’s own protocol and LP fees (which CREATE does not set). There is no transfer tax: sending $CREATE from one wallet to another costs nothing extra.

Where does the 2% go?

It is split once with Pump.fun’s fee sharing and then locked: 33.33% PUMP burn · 33.33% $CREATE buy-and-burn · 33.34% Creative Rewards Fund.

The PUMP burn share is burned as it arrives. The buy-and-burn share is swapped for $CREATE, and that $CREATE is burned. The Creative Rewards Fund pays budgeted bounties, announced before work starts, for selected original creative work; spending never exceeds what arrived. Every arrival, burn, swap and award is posted on the ledger with a Solscan link. The split itself is planned until the coin exists and the one update is made.

Why is there no revenue share?

Because a share of fees for holding a coin is not what CREATE is, and Pump.fun’s terms (updated 25 September 2026) do not allow coins set up as profit-sharing or revenue-participation arrangements. So the creator fee is burned or pays for work, never for holding, and none of it funds CREATE’s operations.

What do holders get?

No payments of any kind. The planned holder perks are capped render discounts and premium templates in Studio planned; they stay off until the terms set them. Holder perks are planned: capped render discounts and premium templates. Until they go live every wallet pays the same, and nobody needs $CREATE to use Studio.

Is there a team allocation?

No. Any $CREATE the team holds is bought on the curve like anyone else’s and disclosed. The supply is 1,000,000,000 (Pump.fun’s standard, confirmed on chain at launch).

Where is the contract address?

CA: DROPS AT LAUNCH Until it is posted here and on our X account, any address claiming to be $CREATE is not ours.

Pump.fun

Is CREATE part of Pump.fun?

No. CREATE is independent: it is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by Pump.fun, and there is no partnership. Pump.fun and PUMP are named only to say where $CREATE trades and what it pairs with, and to link the page where you launch a coin. CREATE uses none of Pump.fun’s branding. The full disclaimer is below, under Risks.

Launching from Studio uses Pump.fun’s public program and its open-source SDK (MIT licence), the same way any app can. That is not a partnership either.

Can I launch from CREATE?

Yes, in beta beta. In Studio, open Launch a community and set up the launch: name, ticker, image and links, a pair (SOL, USDC or Custom: Pump), your creator fee on the custom pair, where creator rewards go, and an optional first buy, always entered in SOL (on a USDC or Custom: Pump pair your SOL is swapped into that asset first, on Jupiter’s best route). CREATE checks each transaction with a simulation on Solana mainnet, your wallet signs (one prompt, two transactions when a swap comes first), and Pump.fun’s own program creates the coin. Pump.fun’s Terms apply to anyone launching there.

Prefer pump.fun/create? Studio still shows you what to enter there.

Who holds the keys?

You do. Your wallet signs the launch. The coin’s address comes from a one-time key your browser makes for that launch: it signs once and is never stored or sent anywhere (only its public address is). CREATE never holds your keys, your coin or your funds.

Does CREATE take a fee?

No. CREATE takes nothing from a launch: no fee, no share of the supply, no cut of creator fees. You pay Solana’s rent for the new accounts and the network fee (Studio shows the estimate before you sign), plus your first buy if you make one. CREATE adds no fee to the swap of a first buy either: the route and its pools’ fees are Jupiter’s, shown before you sign. If the swap goes through and the create does not, the swapped asset stays in your wallet and Studio offers to create the coin with it. Pump.fun’s own fees apply to trades on the coin.

Where are my coin’s image and details stored?

On CREATE, at createonpump.fun/m/…: the image, and a small JSON file with the name, ticker, description and links that the coin’s on-chain record points at. Both are addressed by their own content and can’t be changed after launch, which is true of every Pump.fun coin. Uploads that never become a coin are deleted within a day or two. CREATE takes down an image or details that break the law or someone’s rights.

Report a coin’s image or details: DM us on X (handle at launch).

Why is the first buy sometimes unavailable?

A create with a first buy is too big for one Solana transaction on its own. It fits by using a public address lookup table on Solana (not CREATE’s) that lists Pump.fun’s accounts. If that table is ever unavailable, or the transaction still comes out too big, Studio offers the launch without a first buy and says why. CREATE never splits the create and the buy into two transactions: someone could buy in between.

What is a Callout Kit?

A zip you download from Studio: your memes, your clip when you recorded one, editable X posts with disclosures, and the Pump.fun callout link you paste in. Pump.fun decides who is eligible for callouts and what they pay; downloading a kit or clicking through CREATE does not create any Pump.fun attribution.

Callout Quests

How do Callout Quests work?

Call out $CREATE on Pump.fun, paste the link on /quests and sign it with your wallet (a message, never a transaction). A counted callout earns 10 XP; +15 when it uses media from a Callout Kit you made in Studio; +5 a day on a streak, up to +35. One callout counts per wallet per coin per UTC day, and duplicates count once. Coins launched on CREATE have callouts too, each with its own board: open the coin’s page and press “Submit a callout”. XP climbs five levels (Rookie, Caller, Hype Crew, Headliner, Legend) with a weekly and an all-time board. Callout Quests are building: submissions open once $CREATE exists.

Do callouts pay?

No cash for callouts. XP unlocks product perks: free Studio renders (Caller: 1, Headliner: 2 more; at most 5 a month, paid for by Studio’s treasury, usable once clips are live), premium meme templates and extra hoodie colours in the live room (Hype Crew), a gold name on the big screen (Headliner) and the Hall of Fame (Legend). XP and perks are not cash. The only money is a weekly reward pool a coin’s creator may set for that coin’s best callers, paid from the creator’s own wallet (for $CREATE: the Callout Cup, planned, from the Creative Rewards Fund, on the ledger). CREATE never pays, holds or sends it.

Does trading earn XP?

No. Buying, selling, holding or volume never earn XP. Only counted callouts, the Callout Kit bonus, streaks and an operator’s featured pick do. Spam, duplicates and fake callouts are removed, with their XP.

Do I have to disclose it?

Yes. If a callout earns you perks, say so in the post, e.g. “earning XP on CREATE”. Pump.fun’s rules require disclosing compensation. Pump.fun’s own callout rewards are separate, run by Pump.fun at its discretion; CREATE does not decide, count or pay them.

Callout rewards beta

How do callout rewards work?

Every coin launched on CREATE has its own callout board on /quests. Its creator may set a weekly pool for that coin’s best callers: SOL, USDC, PUMP or the coin itself, for 1 to 10 winners, before the week starts (weeks run Monday 00:00 to Monday 00:00 UTC). When the week ends, CREATE ranks that coin’s callouts by their XP (one counted callout per wallet per coin per day, the Callout Kit and streak bonuses, and the creator’s featured picks; rejected callouts drop out; ties go to the earlier first callout). The creator reviews the list, approves it by signing a message and pays the winners from their own wallet. CREATE checks the payment on chain and marks the winners “rewarded”. Buying, selling, volume, holdings and price never rank anyone.

Who pays them?

Rewards are paid by this coin's creator, not by CREATE or Pump.fun. The coin’s creator (the wallet that created it) signs and pays every reward from their own wallet, straight to the winners. CREATE never holds, routes or sends the money and takes nothing from it. For $CREATE, the pool is the Callout Cup, paid by the Creative Rewards Fund and shown on the ledger.

Why must I disclose?

Pump.fun’s callout terms require disclosing compensation you get or expect. While a coin has a reward pool, you tick “my callout says it may be rewarded” before you sign, the signed message says so, and your post must say so too, e.g. “may be rewarded by the creator”. While a pool runs, a callout on that coin without the tick is not accepted.

What if a creator does not pay?

A pool that is announced and not paid within 7 days of the week’s end shows as “unpaid” on the coin’s page and its board, for everyone to see. CREATE cannot pay it for them: it never holds the money.

Coin pages beta

Where does the chart data come from?

From Solana itself. CREATE reads the coin’s bonding curve (or its PumpSwap pool after graduation) and Pump’s own trade events through its own RPC, and draws the candles. No market-data service. ≈ USD uses Pyth’s SOL/USD price account on chain (shown as n/a when it is older than 60 s); USDC counts as $1; PUMP uses PumpSwap’s PUMP/USDC pool. Every figure says when it was read. A coin page shows; it never ranks coins or callers by price or trading.

How do I get the KOL badge?

Register on /quests: sign one message with your wallet (never a transaction) and your X handle. CREATE checks the handle is yours and approves it. The list is CREATE’s own; nobody is added from elsewhere.

Risks and the fine print

Is this financial advice?

CREATE is an independent project. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by Pump.fun, Anthropic or any other company; Pump.fun and PUMP are named only to describe where $CREATE trades and what it pairs with, and Claude is named only to describe the AI the Studio uses. $CREATE carries no promise of profit, revenue share or yield. Crypto assets are volatile and can go to zero. Nothing here is financial advice.

What are the risks?

$CREATE is a volatile crypto asset. It can lose all of its value, and nothing on this site is a promise about its price or financial advice.

Burns reduce supply; they do not set a price. The fee split depends on Pump.fun’s programs, on trading volume (it can be zero) and on the operators running the keepers; if they stop, fees wait in the wallets and the ledger shows it. PUMP’s transfer-hook authority can add a hook at any time; while one is set, the keepers pause PUMP swaps and awards (burns still run).

Software fails. Studio verifies payments before it renders and flags failures for refunds, but wallets, RPC providers and AI models can misbehave. Only pay what a render costs, and only from a wallet you control.

What happens to what I type into Studio?

Brand-kit and clip prompts are sent to the Claude API to write your kit or clip. Paid prompts are stored with the render (never shown publicly); share links show the clip and its code, not your prompt. Token lookups read public chain data. There are no accounts and no tracking scripts.
