Listing your asset on NOWPayments opens up a world of opportunities in the cryptocurrency market. This guide aims to provide a detailed understanding of the three types of asset listings available and how NOWPayments can assist you in achieving your goals. By leveraging this platform, you can enhance exposure, attract new users, and unlock the potential for wider adoption. Let’s delve into each type of listing and explore the benefits and steps involved.
Regular Asset Listing
NOWPayments offers a streamlined process for listing assets. This category includes well-established tokens such as ETH (ERC20), BSC (BEP20), MATIC (Polygon), SOL, TRX (TRC20), AVAXC (C-chain), FTM, ARB (Arbitrum), OP (Optimism), and CELO. To qualify for regular token listing, your token should have a liquidity pool on a decentralized exchange (DEX) paired with WETH, WBNB, WMATIC, or USDT, with a total daily volume exceeding $100,000. NOWPayments also supports DEXes on BSC, ETH, Arbitrum, and Polygon networks. For tokens on other networks, a minimum daily turnover of $300,000 is required for listing on NOWPayments. Please note that in this case, the token needs to be listed on CoinMarketCap with trackable markets.
Benefits:
- Access to an extensive network of ChangeNOW partners and NOWPayments’ merchants actively using NOWPayments.
- Exposure to the significant user base of ChangeNOW and NOWPayments’ merchants.
- Integration possibilities with various APIs and widgets, providing unique use cases for your token.
- Co-marketing opportunities, including the potential for case studies showcasing your token’s success.
One-Way Listing
NOWPayments offers a one-way listing option that allows your coin or token to be included for buying (exchange to) on ChangeNOW and available for settlements (withdrawals) on NOWPayments. This listing is suitable for assets that already have sufficient liquidity on popular exchanges such as Kucoin, Binance, or Huobi, ensuring smooth withdrawal options. The advantage of this listing is that merchants can add a wallet to receive payments in your asset, while users have the flexibility to pay in any other asset available on NOWPayments.
Benefits:
- Expanded usability for your asset as merchants can integrate it into their payment processes.
- Increased accessibility for users to utilize your asset for transactions.
- Simplified integration with popular exchanges, ensuring smooth withdrawal options.
Listing with Self Liquidity
If your asset lacks sufficient liquidity, NOWPayments provides an opportunity for self-listing through Liquidity Pools. This option allows your project to provide liquidity for your own token or coin and a specified coin pair (e.g., USDT). The exchange rate between the two assets will vary based on the weight trading ratio of the pools. This listing is ideal for assets that are not listed elsewhere or have minimal liquidity and trading volumes. It can be particularly beneficial for projects planning to launch their assets or those seeking to boost liquidity.
Benefits:
- Opportunity to kickstart liquidity for your asset in a controlled environment.
- Access to NOWPayments’ vast user base, exposing your asset to potential traders.
- Integration into the NOWPayments API, enabling wider accessibility across various exchanges.
