How to verify a token and make it appear in Solana Explorer
A common question from token creators is: "Why doesn't my token show up when I search for it on Solana Explorer, and how do I get it verified?"
The short answer: Solana Explorer does not run its own single verification process. Instead, it aggregates several independent verification providers. If your token becomes verified through any one of these providers, it will surface in Explorer's search results and display verification information.
This guide explains each provider, what "verified" does (and does not) mean, and how to get your token verified.
What "verified" means (and what it doesn't)
Verification confirms that a token is the canonical / correct token for a given name, symbol, and mint address. It helps users avoid impersonators and duplicate tokens, since anyone can mint a token with any name on Solana.
Verification is not an endorsement of a project, and it is not a guarantee of a token's value, safety, or legitimacy. Always do your own research.
The verification providers behind Solana Explorer
Solana Explorer checks the following independent verifiers. Getting picked up by any of them (RugCheck is automatic; the others require action) makes your token appear in Explorer search.
1. RugCheck (automatic)
RugCheck performs automated on-chain analysis and automatically tracks tokens. Because it is automatic, you generally do not need to submit anything — RugCheck evaluates on-chain risk signals (mint/freeze authority, holder distribution, liquidity, etc.) and tracks the token on its own.
There is special handling for certain stablecoins, where projects can contact the RugCheck team directly for appropriate treatment.
Example token page:
rugcheck.xyz/tokens/<mint>
2. Jupiter
Jupiter maintains a verified token list (VRFD) that is widely integrated across the Solana ecosystem — DEXes, wallets, and screeners. A verified token receives a green checkmark across Jupiter products and partner platforms.
To get verified, submit your token for review:
- Submit at verified.jup.ag/tokens
- Anyone can submit a token (not just the project team)
- You can optionally connect the project's X account to link the token's mint address to a specific account
- Jupiter runs a holistic review (liquidity, metadata standards compliance, and other signals) rather than checking a single metric
Example token page:
jup.ag/tokens/<mint>
3. CoinGecko
CoinGecko verification lists your token with market data. When you verify with CoinGecko, be sure to include the token's mint address (CoinGecko's form labels this the "contract address") so downstream integrations can resolve prices correctly.
Follow the official CoinGecko listing/update guide:
Example coin page:
coingecko.com/en/coins/<token>
4. Solflare
Solflare is an independent validator in Solana Explorer's verification framework. In practice its token-listing criteria overlap heavily with Jupiter's, because Solflare's in-app swap list is powered by the Jupiter aggregator. For a new token to appear, it typically must:
- Be a valid token on the Solana blockchain with metadata that follows the Metaplex Token Metadata standard
- Have sufficient liquidity (a minimum USD value of the token available for trading)
- Keep price impact within acceptable limits for typical swaps
Because of this overlap, tokens that complete Jupiter verification are often already eligible on Solflare without a separate submission — so you usually do not need to treat Solflare as an extra manual step. Once the criteria are met, tokens usually appear within a few minutes. See:
Example token page:
solflare.com/prices/<name>/<mint>
5. Bluprynt (enhanced KYC)
Bluprynt offers an enhanced verification path with a KYC protocol. This is a more rigorous, identity-backed process suitable for projects that want a stronger verification signal.

How it all comes together
- RugCheck happens automatically via on-chain analysis — no submission needed.
- Jupiter, CoinGecko, Solflare, and Bluprynt each require you to submit / complete their respective process.
- As soon as your token is verified by at least one of these providers, it will appear in Solana Explorer search and show verification details.
If your token is not appearing in Explorer search yet, the fastest path is usually to submit for Jupiter verification and/or complete a CoinGecko listing, since both are widely integrated across the ecosystem.
Prerequisites that help verification succeed
Regardless of the provider, these on-chain fundamentals make verification much more likely to succeed:
- Valid metadata: your token should have on-chain metadata that follows the Metaplex Token Metadata standard (name, symbol, logo URI).
- Liquidity: provide enough liquidity on a supported DEX so the token can be traded and evaluated.
- Correct mint address: whenever you submit to a provider, always use your token's mint address (labeled the "contract address" in some provider forms).
Summary
Solana Explorer aggregates multiple independent verifiers — RugCheck (automatic), Jupiter, CoinGecko, Solflare, and Bluprynt (KYC). Verification through any one of them makes your token discoverable in Explorer search. Verification confirms the canonical token identity; it is not an endorsement, so users should always do their own research.
