Specify the Royalty percentage here. Every secondary market that is following the Cardano Royalty Standard will automatically distribute this specified percentage of the sales price if a token is sold on their platform.
Please keep in mind that the creation of a royalty token will take 2 ADA for for each collection. You will be asked at a later step to provide a payout address, where you want to receive the royalties.
If you specified royalties, you will be asked further in the process to also add a payout address to receive the royalties.
Upload a Cover image in the final step of the Collection settings. The maximum file size is 10mb, the Minimum size is 1920x1080 px. You can upload a jpg or png file.
Where "Mint only" will allow you to directly mint the tokens after the creation at the end of the process. Choosing "For Sale" will give you the possibility to share links to the NMKR Store where your customers are able to buy and mint the tokens.
Please click on next and start creating your NFTs.
If you select "For sale", please also specify the mint price for the tokens in the collection and also the payout wallet, where you want to receive the sales revenue.
Upload all the files that you later want to use to create the single NFTs. This is like a catalogue you are creating to later select up to 6 files for each NFT.
You can upload up to 90 individual files here with up to 1GB total file size (50 MB single file size) Supported file formats: jpg, png, gif, mp3, wav, mp4, avi, or mov.

The Token Name is the unique identifier for the token on the blockchain, it is not allowed to hold any special characters.
This step is optional and only applies to the NMKR Store. The Tags you are able to select here, will show up in the NMKR Store and help collectors to better find projects they are interested into.
