Last updated 29 days ago

What are Tiered Sales?

Tiered Sales allow you to divide your token sale into pricing stages, known as tiers. Each tier has its own fixed price and token allocation. Buyers can purchase from active tiers based on eligibility and availability. As each tier sells out, the next becomes available—typically at a higher price. This structure helps reward early participants and manage demand across the sale.


Why use Tiered Sales?

Tiered Sales give you full control over pricing, segmentation, and sale pacing. You can:

  • Reward early supporters with lower prices

  • Gate specific tiers to trusted or strategic buyer groups

  • Build sale momentum across distinct phases

  • Avoid volatility or uncertainty tied to dynamic pricing mechanisms like LBPs


How many tiers can I include?

You can add as many tiers as needed. Each tier requires:

  • A token price

  • A token allocation (amount available in that tier)

  • Optional eligibility (open to all or restricted to specific wallet lists)

Tiers unlock sequentially. Once one sells out or reaches its cap, the next becomes active.


Can tiers have different eligibility rules?

Yes. Each tier can be open to all or restricted to a list of approved wallets. For example:

  • Tier 1 might be limited to FJO stakers

  • Tier 2 to KYC’d addresses

  • Tier 3 open to the public

Wallet lists can be uploaded individually for each tier during setup.


Can each tier have different wallet limits?

Yes. You can define per-wallet max allocations for each tier independently. This lets you control distribution across different buyer segments.


How are tiers activated?

Tiers are activated automatically in the order you define them. When one tier is fully sold or hits its limit, the next becomes available. Buyers only see and access tiers they’re eligible for and that are currently live.


Can buyers see upcoming tiers?

Yes. The sale interface shows all tiers and their prices, but only tiers a buyer is eligible for and that are currently active will be clickable. This helps build anticipation without opening everything at once.


Can a buyer purchase from multiple tiers?

Yes, if their wallet is eligible and allocations allow it. For example, someone might buy from Tier 1 and later from Tier 3 once it opens. Wallet limits apply per tier, not across the entire sale.


Can I set a maximum raise cap across all tiers?

Yes. You can define a global maximum raise amount. Once that cap is reached, the sale ends, even if there are remaining tokens in later tiers.

You can also set a minimum raise amount. If that minimum isn’t met, buyers will be refunded and tokens won’t be claimable.


When do participants claim their tokens?

Tokens are claimed after the sale ends. You can also apply:

  • A claim delay, to allow time to set up DEX liquidity

  • Vesting, if you want tokens to stream over time via Sablier


Can I change tiers once the sale is live?

No. Once the sale starts, tiers are locked in. You cannot:

  • Add or remove tiers

  • Change prices, allocations, or eligibility

  • Update wallet limits

You can pause or hide the sale from the public, but not modify its structure.


Can I add referral links or a leaderboard to Tiered Sales?

Not currently, but these features are planned for future release and will apply to all sale types.


Can the Fjord team help me structure my tiers?

Yes. If you’re unsure how to structure pricing, tiers, or eligibility groups, the Fjord team is happy to assist with strategy, setup, and testing. Open a support ticket in the Fjord Discord to get started.


Best practices for structuring a Tiered Sale

  • Start with smaller, cheaper tiers to reward early buyers

  • Increase price gradually across tiers to create clear progression

  • Use wallet gating for strategic groups like investors, KYC lists, or FJO stakers

  • Clearly display token allocations and limits on the sale page

  • Communicate the sale structure in advance to help buyers prepare

Example tier structure:

  • Tier 1: $0.05 per token – 5% of supply – Whitelisted wallets only

  • Tier 2: $0.08 per token – 10% of supply – FJO stakers

  • Tier 3: $0.12 per token – 15% of supply – Open to public
