Gasless minting allows you to create an NFT on the Ethereum blockchain without paying gas fees or submitting a blockchain transaction yourself.
Instead of sending a transaction, you simply sign a message — and that’s it. Your item is minted, ready for sale, and fully on Ethereum mainnet.
🚀 This makes it easier than ever for new users to enter the NFT space — no ETH required, no wallet friction, no surprise fees.
When you use gasless minting on Mintable (powered by Mintology):
You sign a message instead of submitting a blockchain transaction
Your NFT is created and stored as a real ERC-721 token on Ethereum
There is no gas fee for the creator — ever
⚠️ Since there’s no on-chain transfer yet, your NFT won’t show in your wallet right away — see below.
Most wallets detect NFTs by watching for Transfer events on the blockchain.
Since gasless minting doesn’t emit a transfer event until the item is bought or manually transferred:
The NFT won’t show up in your wallet immediately
It does exist — you can see it on Mintable, and even on
You can still transfer it to yourself to trigger a wallet-visible event, or manually add it
Yes! Gasless minting is done directly on the Ethereum mainnet, not an L2 or sidechain.
Your NFTs are:
Fully ERC-721 compliant
Viewable and tradable on any platform that supports Ethereum NFTs
As real as any other NFT — just minted smarter
Nope! It's already minted and the buyer or sender has no extra costs.
