How to Get Your Token on DexScreener (2026 Guide)

Your Solana token appears on DexScreener automatically once you create a Raydium liquidity pool. DexScreener indexes all Raydium pools in real-time — no application or approval needed. To optimize your DexScreener profile, burn LP tokens for the trust badge, ensure your token metadata is complete, and build trading volume.

How DexScreener Works

DexScreener is a real-time DEX analytics platform that indexes pools from major decentralized exchanges. For Solana, it indexes:

• Raydium CPMM pools
• Raydium AMM V4 pools
• Orca pools
• Meteora pools

When you create a liquidity pool on any of these DEXs, DexScreener automatically detects the new pool and creates a page for your token. This typically happens within minutes of pool creation.

Getting Your Token on DexScreener

Step 1: Create Your Token

Create your Solana token with proper metadata — name, symbol, description, and logo. DexScreener pulls metadata from on-chain data, so complete metadata is important for a professional appearance.

Step 2: Create a Liquidity Pool

Create a Raydium liquidity pool for your token paired with SOL. Once the pool is live, DexScreener begins indexing it.

Pool requirements for DexScreener:

• Must be on a supported DEX (Raydium, Orca, Meteora)
• Must have liquidity (tokens + SOL deposited)
• Must have at least some trading activity

Step 3: First Trade

After pool creation, make at least one swap (buy or sell). This creates the first price data point on DexScreener and triggers the chart to start.

Step 4: Verify Appearance

Search for your token on DexScreener by:

• Token contract address (most reliable)
• Token name
• Token symbol

Your token's page should show: price chart, liquidity amount, volume, and basic token info.

Optimizing Your DexScreener Profile

Burn LP for Trust Badge

The most impactful optimization is burning LP tokens. DexScreener prominently displays LP burn status:

• 100% burned — Green "Burned" badge (strongest trust signal)
• Partially burned — Shows percentage burned
• Locked — Shows "Locked until [date]" if using a time-lock
• Not locked — No badge (looks risky to traders)

Burn LP tokens on SolTokenCreator.io/burn-lp-tokens with Burn & Earn to lock liquidity while earning fees.

Revoke Authorities

DexScreener displays authority status for your token:

• Mint authority revoked — Shows the supply is fixed
• Freeze authority revoked — Shows accounts cannot be frozen
• Both active — Red flag for experienced traders

Revoke both authorities for the best DexScreener trust profile.

Complete Metadata

Ensure your token has:

• Clear, recognizable logo (at least 256x256px)
• Accurate name and symbol
• Description
• Website URL
• Social links (Twitter, Telegram, Discord)

Incomplete metadata makes your token look unprofessional on DexScreener.

Build Trading Volume

Higher trading volume improves visibility:

• DexScreener sorts by volume in search results
• Higher volume attracts more organic traders
• Consistent volume shows an active community

Do NOT use wash trading or fake volume — DexScreener and experienced traders can detect artificial activity.

Updating Token Info on DexScreener

DexScreener pulls token information from on-chain metadata. To update:

1. Update your token's on-chain metadata (requires update authority)
2. DexScreener refreshes data periodically (usually within hours)
3. For faster updates, use DexScreener's token update request feature

DexScreener Enhanced Token Info

DexScreener offers an enhanced profile feature for verified projects. This may include:

• Custom banner image
• Verified badge
• Extended description
• Social links prominently displayed

Check DexScreener's current requirements for enhanced profiles, as they update their verification process periodically.

Common Issues

Token not showing on DexScreener:

• Ensure a liquidity pool exists on a supported DEX
• Wait 5-30 minutes after pool creation
• Make at least one trade to trigger indexing
• Search by contract address, not name

Logo not displaying:

• Check your on-chain metadata has a valid image URI
• Use permanent storage (Arweave) for the image
• Ensure the image is accessible (not behind authentication)

Wrong information displayed:

• DexScreener pulls from on-chain data — update your metadata on-chain
• Allow time for DexScreener to refresh cached data
