How to create a Liquidity Pool in PumpSwap: step by step

PumpSwap is one of the platforms that has grown the most since its launch at the end of March 2025. It is the DEX of meme coins created by Pump.Fun, so it is not surprising for its growing popularity. That is why you need to learn how to create a liquidity pool on PumpSwap, as there are few portals with so much traffic.

Before getting started, there are two ways to create a Liquidity Pool on PumpSwap: by holding an SLP token and manually adding an LP, or by graduating your token from Pump Fun. Both methods are valid, and we will show you how to do it step-by-step, below.

Creating Liquidity Pool in PumpSwap step by step

Creating a new liquidity pool on PumpSwap requires two things: a token SLP token that has already been created and funds to add liquidity (either in SOL, USDT, or USDC). First, go to the PumpSwap website, where we’ll start creating a liquidity pool with any token. From there, follow these steps:

1. Click on "Create": this starts the process to create a liquidity pool in PumpSwap.
2. Select the "Quote Tokenor the pair with a value: the one at the top is the one that will be used to trade for your meme coin. Generally, SOL, USDT, or USDC are used.
3. Click "Select Tokenand paste the Token : when you click "Select token ," a window token pop up. Paste the address and choose your meme coin.
4. Choose the initial liquidity and how many tokens to allocate to the liquidity pool: as a general rule, between 75 and 80% of the total supply is usually allocated .
5. Click "Create Pool," confirm the transaction in your wallet and you'll be able to view your token PumpSwap.

How much liquidity should I add to my PumpSwap Liquidity Pool?

The smaller the liquidity pool is at the start, the more volatile your meme coin will be. On the other hand, if you start a liquidity pool with 5–10 SOL, your coin will be more stable, and more people will be interested in buying it.

There is no specific, minimum or recommended amount. What is certain is that the more liquidity, the more likely it is that your project will succeed.

We recommend using the PumpSwap Bundle to protect yourself from bot snipers. This way, you can immediately buy a certain amount of tokens when making the LP public.

Create a liquidity pool in PumpSwap without spending anything

There is another way to create a liquidity pool in PumpSwap without investing money for liquidity. Actually, it is one of the most attractive features of the parent platform: Pump.Fun The idea is basically the following:

1. Create a meme coin Pump Fun has potential (you can use the Pump Fun Bundler).
2. Attract a large number of investors to buy the currency.
3. Achieve a market cap to "graduate" to PumpSwap (i.e. exceed the bonding curve of approximately 60 SOL ).

This way, your meme coin transferred to PumpSwap, and the liquidity generated on the bonding curve will serve as the initial liquidity for your pair in the liquidity pool. Although it’s easy to explain in three steps, in reality, it’s a process that very few projects actually complete.

You'll need a strong community behind you, as well as the ability to promote the token profitable for you. If you decide to go down this path, we recommend using Smithii Pump.fun bot .

You can also create a liquidity pool in Raydium without programming code.

I already have a liquidity pool in PumpSwap, what's next?

Using either way, once you have created a liquidity pool, it's time to boost your pair using PumpSwap volume bot. This way you will be able to simulate an adequate volume of transactions so that other people can see the activity your meme coin generates and participate as well.

Alternatively, if you already hold the token in one or multiple wallets, you can also plan a coordinated bundle sell to periodically realize profits. To do this, open the bundle sell, add the token address of your meme coin, include the private keys of the wallets holding the meme coin, and click on Bundle Sell.

Conclusion

There are two ways to create a liquidity pool on PumpSwap: manually on its platform or by listing your meme coin Pump.Fun. Which approach you choose depends entirely on your intentions and goals, but either method will allow you to list your token that DEX.
