Up to three things can ever be charged: a deploy fee (paid by the creator), a small per-mint fee (paid by the collector) and a fee on secondary trades routed through our marketplace. Each format only uses the levers that make sense for it. No subscription, no custody.
Test the waters and ship a small PFP collection at zero cost.
Drops and editions. Paid by the collector, never the creator.
No fee on secondary trades. Creators keep 100% of the resale.
One flat platform fee at deploy, scaled by collection size. Storage (IPFS / Arweave) and gas (Ethereum) are billed separately. Live rate today: 1 ETH = $1,797.
Small drops, focused collections, art-first releases.
Ideal for community drops and early-edition PFP launches.
Mid-sized generative collections with a real audience.
Production-grade 10K drops with full trait management.
Three columns, six formats. The full breakdown lives on each format's dedicated page.
| Format | Deploy fee | Per mint | Secondary |
|---|---|---|---|
| PFP | Free to $99 | Free | 5% |
| Edition | Storage only | $0.25 | 0% |
| 1/1 auction | Storage only | Free | 0% |
| Generative | Gas + storage | $0.50 | 5% |
| Token | Gas + storage | Free | N/A |
Storage only: free under 5 MB, then $0.05/MB with a $0.50 minimum. Almost always free for Drop / Edition / 1/1 formats because the upload is just one artwork.
Per-mint fee is added to the collector's mint transaction, never deducted from the creator. EIP-2981 royalties are set by you (cap 10%) and paid directly to your wallet on every artsunami secondary trade.
One-time fee paid by the connected wallet when you click Generate & download ZIP (PFP) or Download Art Blocks bundle (generative). Charged once per export run, paid in ETH to the artsunami treasury — no subscription, no usage cap. Same gate on both surfaces; the output is what differs.
ERC-721A metadata + per-token JSON laid out the way OpenSea's collection import expects: /images/batch-001/ for the artwork, /metadata/batch-001/ for the per-token JSON, a contract.json for the collection-level metadata. Drop straight into OpenSea Studio or pin to Pinata yourself — every field is already in place.
Single-file script.js paste-ready for the Art Blocks Engine / Curated upload form, plus preview.html for a local sanity check, metadata.json with every field AB asks for (max invocations, royalty bps, library version) and a README.txt walking you through the dashboard fields. Constraints (script < 1 MB, no network calls, hash-seeded RNG) spelled out inline.
web/src/lib/exportAllowlist.ts and audited via git history. If you're on the list, the export button just downloads — no wallet prompt. Adding or removing a wallet is a code change on purpose, so the rule stays inspectable. Check the file for the full list of addresses.Same two fees apply across every format. Pick whichever fits your project.
Layered PFP collections, randomised editions of up to 10,000.
A unique piece sold to the highest bidder, reserve price, anti-snipe extension.
A single artwork minted by anyone within a window, capped supply.
Code-driven art. Each mint gets a unique on-chain hash that seeds your script.
Launch a memecoin or a strategy token tied to your digital art collection.
A monthly fee makes sense when the platform locks you in. artsunami deploys real contracts to your wallet and walks away. The art lives on storage you funded. The marketplace is one address, public, auditable. The pricing is built around what actually costs us money: bytes on disk and bandwidth on the marketplace.
That's also why mint fees are paid at mint time. You can't accidentally rack up a bill, and you don't pay to keep a draft alive in our database, because there is no database.
