Write and deploy a compliant ERC-20 token smart contract. Test it and then deploy on Base Mainnet.

Once your ERC-20 contract is deployed, your asset is swappable instantly on Coinbase Wallet in the swap flow. Users can search by contract address or asset name. See below for information on how to show price charts and other metadata.

### Step 2: Prepare your metadata and asset images

Prepare a high-resolution images of your token's logo. Ensure it is clear, identifiable, and representative of your token.

### Step 3: List your cryptocurrency on a listing aggregator
##### **Note:** At this time, being listed and verified on CoinMarketCap is the best way to ensure your token’s name, image, price chart all show up on Coinbase Wallet.

You can pay to be listed AND **verified** on CoinMarketCap following these [instructions](https://support.coinmarketcap.com/hc/en-us/articles/360043659351-Listings-Criteria).

You can list for free on CoinGecko following these [instructions](https://support.coingecko.com/hc/en-us/articles/7291312302617-How-to-list-new-cryptocurrencies-on-CoinGecko).

Once CoinGecko lists your token OR CoinMarketCap lists it as **_verified_**, your asset's image logo and other metadata will flow into Coinbase Wallet and can be seen by users. **It can take 24-48 hours for metadata changes to update.**

## Why does my token display in the “Newer tokens” section?

Tokens that are newly launched and have not had significant trading volume appear in this section. Once your token reaches a market cap of at least $10M on CoinGecko or CoinMarketCap, the **newer token** label inside Coinbase Wallet is removed.

## Why is there no price chart for my token?

Your token must be listed and marked as verified on CoinMarketCap for the price chart to display on Coinbase Wallet.
