SliceOverview
Slice launches tokens on pump.fun and shares their creator fees among 1 to 6 X accounts. The owner of each account signs in with X and takes the SOL, or says once where it should go. These pages describe exactly how that works, including the part where we hold the money in between.
What Slice is
pump.fun pays every token a creator fee: a small cut of each trade, sent to the address named as the token’s creator. Normally that address is the wallet that launched the token. On Slice it is not. Each token is launched with a creator address of its own, and the fees that collect there are split between X accounts that the launcher chose.
Three things happen, in this order:
- You launch. You fill in the token, name up to 6 X handles with a share each, and sign the launch transaction from your own wallet. The token is created on pump.fun like any other.
- Fees are swept. A scheduled job collects each token’s creator fees into our treasury once they reach 0.01 SOL, and credits them to the recipients by their shares. 20% of every sweep stays with the platform.
- Accounts are paid. Whoever owns a named X account signs in with X, sees what is waiting, and has it sent to any Solana wallet. Or they set a routing once and never come back: pay automatically, or buy and burn the token instead.
Where the money comes from
Only from trading. The creator fee is set by pump.fun, not by us, and it is read live from pump.fun’s own fee configuration: 0.30% of bonding-curve volume at the time of writing. After a token migrates to PumpSwap the rate is whatever pump.fun sets there. A token nobody trades produces nothing, and nothing on this site promises volume, a rate, or any amount of money to anyone.
We charge nothing to launch. The platform’s income is its 20% of each sweep, and it pays the network fees of sweeps and payouts out of that. The full list is on Fees & limits.
Who holds the money
Creator fees are collected into a treasury we operate until each X account claims them. Every token has its own fee vault on Solana, and the treasury is checked against what it owes on the proof page.
The treasury is a hot key we operate. It has to be: an X account has no Solana address that pump.fun could pay, so the fees have to rest somewhere between the vault and the person they belong to. Nothing on chain stops the holder of that key from moving the money. What we can do is make every step checkable, and the proof page does the checking in public.
Proof of reserves says what that check proves and what it cannot. Security model lists every key and its powers, and Risks states the rest without softening.
What is different here
- Every token has its own fee vault. Creator addresses are derived one per token, so the fees of one token never mix with another’s and anyone can read them on Solscan. See Per-token vaults.
- The split is public before the launch is signed. The recipients, their shares and the creator address are written into the token’s metadata on IPFS, which the launch transaction points to and nobody can edit afterwards. See The public record.
- Credits follow the chain. A sweep credits the amounts pump.fun reports in the collect events of that transaction, plus any fees somebody else had already collected into the token’s creator address, read from the same transaction. See Sweeps.
- Money belongs to the X account, not the handle text. Renaming keeps it; taking over a handle someone else gave up does not bring their money with it. See Claiming with X.
- Routing. A recipient decides once: hold and claim by hand, autopay to a wallet, or burn their share by buying the token back. Declining publicly is a burn. See Routing.
What Slice is not
- It is not an endorsement. Anyone can name any X account as a recipient without asking it first. Being named on a token says nothing about whether that account supports it.
- It is not an investment product. There is no yield, no rate and no payback period, for launching or for being named.
- It is not non-custodial. Between the sweep and the payout, the money sits in a treasury we control. That is stated here, on Risks, and in the site footer.
- It is not a payout through X. Payouts are SOL sent to a Solana wallet you choose, never through X Money or any X payment feature.
Where to go next
To launch a token, start with Quick start or go straight to the launch form. If you were named on a token, read Claiming with X. To understand the money before touching any, read Fee flow and then Security model.
