You have a digital painting, a photo, or a piece of music and want to turn it into an NFT for sale? The Binance NFT marketplace lets you mint your own NFT without writing any code.
Minting NFTs on Binance requires registering on Binance and completing identity verification. You can mint NFTs through the Binance APP or the web version.
Preparation Before Minting
File: Prepare the digital file you want to mint as an NFT. Supported formats typically include:
- Images: JPG, PNG, GIF
- Video: MP4
- Audio: MP3
- File size limit, usually no more than 50MB
Information: Decide on the NFT's name, description, and category. A good description helps buyers understand your work.
Pricing plan: Consider whether to sell at a fixed price or auction, and at what price.
Minting Steps
- Log into Binance and enter the NFT marketplace
- Find the "Create" or "Mint NFT" entry
- Upload your file
- Fill in NFT details:
- Name
- Description
- Collection (create a new one or add to an existing collection)
- Attribute tags
- Select the blockchain network (typically BSC)
- Set the royalty percentage (your cut from each resale)
- Preview and confirm
- Pay the minting fee (gas fee)
- Wait for on-chain completion
How Much Does Minting Cost?
Minting NFTs on BSC typically has very low gas fees — usually less than $1. This is much cheaper than minting on Ethereum.
The minting fee is deducted from your Binance account balance — ensure you have enough BNB to cover gas fees.
How to Set Royalties
Royalties provide ongoing income as a creator. Every time your NFT is resold on the secondary market, you receive a percentage of the sale price.
The typical royalty range is 5%-10%. For example, with 10% royalties, if your NFT sells for 100 USDT to the next buyer, you receive 10 USDT.
Don't set royalties too high — excessive rates discourage buyers and reduce resale activity. 5%-10% is a reasonable range.
What to Do After Minting
Once minted, the NFT is in your account. You can choose to:
Fixed-price sale: Set a price for direct purchase by buyers.
Auction: Set a starting price and auction duration — highest bidder wins.
Hold: Mint now and decide later on selling method and price.
How to Get More Visibility for Your NFT
Work quality: This is the most fundamental factor. Unique, creative work naturally attracts attention.
Complete information: Detailed descriptions and appropriate tags help your NFT appear in more searches.
Social promotion: Promote your NFT on Twitter, Discord, and other social platforms.
Create a series: A complete NFT collection is more attractive than a single piece.
Reasonable pricing: New creators shouldn't price too high — build reputation and transaction history first.
Important Considerations
Originality: Only mint works you have copyright to. Plagiarizing or using others' work may result in NFT delisting and account penalties.
Resolution: Upload high-quality files — blurry images seriously hurt buyer interest.
Gas fee fluctuations: While BSC gas fees are usually very low, they can spike in extreme conditions. Check fees before minting.
Market timing: The NFT market has hot and cold cycles. Minting during a cold market may mean no interest for a long time.
Preserve evidence: Keep original files and creation process records for potential copyright disputes.
