Note: If you are on the ETH chain and used Minty.Place to create your contract, you only need to push the VERIFY SMART CONTRACT button.

Verifying your smart contract on it’s coin scanner (ie Etherscan, Polygonscan,etc) allows you to connect to that scanner and make changes to your contract. You can make these changes with our admin page without verifying but verification is quick and easy and highly recommended.

Step 1. Find your contract on the block explorer.

Copy your contract address from the mint.place page and paste it into the block explorer for the chain your contract launched on.

Paste your contract address in the block explorer search bar

Each chain has their own block explorer. Below are the block explorers for the most common EVM compatible chains:

Once you add your address to the block explorer’s search bar it should take you to the page for that contract. Click on the contract tab to get ready to verify

Click on the Contract Tab to get ready to verify your contract

Step 2. Verify Contract

  1. Click the link to Verify and Publish
Click the Verify and Publish link circled in yellow

2. Fill in the form as follows:

Your contract address should automatically be filled in.

3. Hit continue button.

4. Copy your contact code from the minty.place contract page using the COPY ALL button

5. Paste the contract code in your block explorer where it says Enter the Solidity Contract Code Below. Do not fill anything else out.

Paste your contract code in the Solidity Contract Code box

6. Scroll down, prove you’re not a robot and hit Verify and Publish Button

Don’t fill out constructor arguments. Prove you’re not a robot and click “Verify and Publish”

Good job, you’ve verified your contract!

Confirmation page that you verified your contract

Now when you go to your contract tab on the contract’s block explorer’s page you will see Read Contract and Write Contract Buttons.
