What is the difference between Partnered and Unvetted sales on Fjord?
Partnered sales are supported by an official launch partner and reviewed according to their due diligence standards. These sales are given featured placement across Fjord's interface.
Unvetted sales are permissionless and automatically indexed from the blockchain. These have not undergone any review by Fjord or a third party, and participants must acknowledge the additional risks before joining.
How can I become a launch partner or service provider?
If you're interested in collaborating as a launch partner or providing support services to projects launching on Fjord, join our Discord and open a support ticket. Our team will review and respond to your proposal.
How do I get technical support?
For technical issues, wallet questions, or sale troubleshooting, please join the Fjord Discord and open a support ticket. A team member will assist you directly.
What chains can I participate on?
Fjord supports a wide range of EVM-compatible chains, including:
Ethereum
Arbitrum
Optimism
Polygon
Avalanche
BNB Chain
Base
Blast
Sonic
Solana is supported for some sale types, but cross-chain swaps are only available across EVM chains. If participating from Solana, you'll need to bridge to an EVM chain first for compatibility with cross-chain functionality.
Can I participate with any token?
Yes. Thanks to our integration with Axelar, you can use any liquid ERC-20 token from any supported EVM chain to join a Fjord sale. Your tokens will be automatically swapped into the required sale currency (e.g. USDC, WETH) during the purchase process.
Does Fjord require KYC?
Fjord itself does not conduct KYC. However, some sales are whitelisted, and the project may choose to use a third-party KYC provider to manage eligibility.
If you're joining a whitelisted sale, your wallet may need to be approved by the project beforehand.

Why can’t I see tokens in my wallet after participating?
Tokens are claimed after the sale ends and are never sent to participants mid-sale. This protects the integrity of the event and ensures LPs cannot be set up during the sale.
Yes. When buying into a sale, participants pay a 2% swap fee on their contribution. This is included during the purchase process and helps support the platform.
What are the risks of participating?
All token purchases carry risk. Projects may fail, teams may go inactive, or tokens may become worthless. Even Partnered sales are not guaranteed to succeed. Always Do Your Own Research (DYOR) before contributing.
How can I evaluate a project before participating?
Fjord does not endorse or verify unvetted projects. We encourage you to:
You’ll need an EVM-compatible wallet, like MetaMask, Rabby, Coinbase Wallet, or WalletConnect.
Mobile wallets work, but we recommend using desktop for the smoothest experience.
Can I use a hardware wallet?
Yes. Fjord supports hardware wallets through WalletConnect or browser wallet integrations like MetaMask.
Will I get a refund if the sale doesn’t reach its goal?
That depends on the minimum raise amount set by the project. If the minimum is not met, your contribution will be refunded.
Can I sell or trade my tokens immediately after the sale?
That depends on the project. Some tokens are claimable immediately, while others may be vested or have a claim delay. Always read the sale details carefully.

What if I miss the claim window?
There is no expiration on claiming your tokens. You can claim them at any time after the sale ends, as long as you still control the wallet you used to participate.
