Production Launch

Follow this checklist to ensure you are ready for launch

Production access requires a signed Order Form and successful KYB.

Crossmint operates as a regulated entity, so production access is not self-serve. Staging is unrestricted — you can build and test against the staging environment without any approval.

To move to production:

1. Work with Crossmint's sales team to sign an Order Form. The Order Form is the commercial agreement and includes the KYB obligation.
2. Complete KYB (Know Your Business) verification. The Crossmint compliance team handles this as part of onboarding and reviews entity formation, beneficial ownership, and business purpose.
3. Production access is enabled once KYB passes. There is no separate request — a successful KYB unlocks the production environment for your account.

See the account verification documentation for which Crossmint products require KYB.

Move to Production

From Staging to Production

Crossmint provides two developer environments: staging and production. It’s recommended to test end-to-end on staging before moving to production.

Once staging is working:

1. Create or register an identical collection in production.
2. Update the client-side apiKey and collectionId values to the production ones.
3. Ensure your production API key has the orders.create scope enabled.

See Example

React

<CrossmintProvider apiKey="_YOUR_PROD_CLIENT_API_KEY_">
    <CrossmintHostedCheckout
        lineItems={{
            collectionId: "crossmint:_YOUR_PROD_COLLECTION_ID_",
            callData: {
                totalPrice: "0.25",
                // your custom minting arguments...
            }
        }}
    />
</CrossmintProvider>

Smart contract

Before you launch, please ensure that the following parameters and criteria are configured in your smart contract properly.

1. Price per NFT - ensure that the value is configured correctly.
2. Accesslists and permissions - confirm that the accesslist is up-to-date and the appropriate permissions are set.

Verify your Collection

Collection Verification

NFT Checkout requires manual review and approval from our team to ensure compliance and quality. This is not a self-service feature. Please fill out the form here with details about what you’re building so we can review your use case.

Important: In the field “Please pick the option that best matches your request”, select “I want to sell NFTs with Crossmint.”

Crossmint must verify your collection to ensure it meets Crossmint’s content policy.

Crossmint does not support the sale of securities, investment contracts, or any of the other categories specified on the content policy.

I am a launchpad or require verifying many collections

Crossmint offers a collection registration API and tools to verify creators and collections at scale. To learn more, contact us.

Verify your Account

Account Verification (KYB)

Production Checkout requires completing KYB (Know Your Business) verification of your company. KYB is a regulatory requirement included in the Order Form, and the Crossmint compliance team handles it as part of onboarding.

Production access is enabled once KYB passes.

You only have to verify a project once, and can create as many collections as you wish within that project. New projects require additional verification.

Start the Order Form conversation early. KYB can run in parallel with your integration work so you are not blocked when you are ready to launch.

Check the Transaction Limit

Transaction limits

The lower bound limit is USD $0.75 per purchase for primaries and secondaries, and the upper bound limit is USD $1,500 for primaries, and USD $7,000 per purchase for secondaries (marketplaces). Those limits are per purchase. Users can make multiple purchases with total amounts surpassing those thresholds.

If you require higher limits, contact sales.
