# Minting on Demand

Minting on demand means that you let your customers mint the tokens on their own with a sales process. The benefits for that are that you don't have any upfront costs like you would have them if you [mint the tokens manually](https://docs.nmkr.io/nmkr-studio/minting/manual-minting) and sell them on secondary markets.

### Minting on demand in NMKR Studio

#### Minting on Demand with NMKR Pay

NMKR Studio offers two options for the minting on Demand, one is [**NMKR Pay**](https://docs.nmkr.io/nmkr-studio/set-up-sales/nmkr-pay), a fully automated payment gateway where your users are able to connect their wallets and sign the transaction to start the minting process. It supports all [common wallets on Cardano](https://docs.nmkr.io/helpful-links/cardano-wallets#self-custodial-cardano-wallets), payment via [manual sending ](https://docs.nmkr.io/nmkr-studio/set-up-sales/nmkr-pay/manual-sending-in-nmkr-pay)and also [FIAT payments via Credit Card](https://docs.nmkr.io/nmkr-studio/set-up-sales/nmkr-pay/fiat-payment). It comes with a bot protection and also offers [MultiSig payments](https://docs.nmkr.io/nmkr-studio/set-up-sales/nmkr-pay/multisig-payment).

#### Minting on demand with the Pay-In Address

The second option is the [**Pay-In Address**](https://docs.nmkr.io/nmkr-studio/set-up-sales/pay-in-address), a static address where your customers send a specific amount of ADA to start the minting address. It also handles refunds automatically and offers a very easy workaround. As it comes without a bot protection, we always recommend using the superior method; [NMKR Pay](https://docs.nmkr.io/nmkr-studio/set-up-sales/nmkr-pay).\
\
Both options are capable of using the [Sales Conditions and Whitelisting](https://docs.nmkr.io/nmkr-studio/set-up-sales/sales-conditions-and-whitelisting) and both use the [Pricelist](https://docs.nmkr.io/nmkr-studio/set-up-sales/manage-prices-pricelist).
