What is Bags?

Bags is a platform that helps creators fund their ideas through coins that anyone can trade. It’s like a Web3-powered crowdfunding tool, except this time, your supporters can actually own and trade your coin.

Here’s why Bags is catching attention:

1. You can launch a coin for yourself or anyone else online.
2. You can verify ownership with your social media account.
3. You’ll earn 1% royalties from every trade, forever.
4. And you can build an engaged community that grows alongside your success.

That’s the beauty of Bags. It merges creativity, community, and crypto into one simple tool.

Why Creators Are Using Bags

Bags isn’t just for crypto-native users. It’s for anyone with an audience, an idea, or a personal brand. Musicians, streamers, and content creators are using it to give their fans a way to invest in their growth.

The 1% royalty model is what sets Bags apart. Every time your coin is traded, you earn a small share of the volume, automatically. The more your token trades, the more you earn. It’s a powerful incentive for creators to stay active, grow their reach, and engage their communities.

Step-by-Step: How to Launch a Memecoin on Bags

Go to bags.fm/launch homepage. You will be required to have a Web3 wallet along with a social media account like X, TikTok, Kick, or even Github.

Click “Login” at the top right. This login links your profile and helps Bags verify ownership later.

Once logged in, click the "+ New Coin" icon on the top right corner of the dashboard.

Upload your token image, and fill out the details, token name, ticker, and description. This information will appear on your coin’s launch page, so make it catchy and clear.

You can also set up an initial dev buy, just like with other launchpads, but it's not required.

Want to include your friends, co-founders, or community? Bags lets you share up to 90% of the generated coin fees with other users. Just input their social handles in the sharing tab. You’ll keep the remaining 10% as the creator.

You can also choose to buy some of your own tokens at launch, which can help create liquidity early. If your project already has a website or socials, drop the links in the fields provided.

To launch, you’ll need at least 0.1 SOL in your wallet. Click the Bags icon at the top left to copy your wallet address, then deposit SOL from your crypto wallet or exchange. You can use any wallet for this action, just as long as it supports Solana. Phantom, or Metamask are great options.

After funding, return to your launch page and click “Create Coin.” You’ll sign the transaction, and just like that, your coin goes live on Bags.

After Launch: What Happens Next

Once your coin is live, it becomes tradable on Bags. Supporters can buy, sell, and hold your token, and every trade generates volume that feeds back to your 1% royalty stream.

You can promote your coin on social media, host giveaways, or create exclusive benefits for holders, like early access to content, merch, or event invites. The more engagement you drive, the stronger your coin’s community becomes.

The cool feature about Bags.fm is that you can create an influencer token for someone else, and set their X account as the fee receiver.
