How does EnergyPad works?
1/ System of rounds:

- Everybody can participate.
2/ Other rules:
- Participating in a ILO doesn’t required any KYC.
- First come first served basis.
- EnergyPad is a permission-less launchpad. It means that everybody can create an ILO, always DYOR and verify the informations provided by the team really match with the ILO page (duration of the lock, percentage of the lock, contract and so on)
- Unsold tokens will be burned if the ILO is successful, or can be withdraw if it fails.
Fees
- Fixed fee for creating an ILO: 0,5BNB
- Variable fees:
- 1,5% of the raised BNB.

Token Recommendations
⚠️ Before creating your ILO we highly recommend you have your smart contract audited. Contracts not thoroughly audited may fail the ILO.
⚠️ Do not launch tokens with extra large supply (more than 1,000,000,000,000 for exemple) as PancakeSwap will not be able to launch, the “Initiate market” tx will fail.
⚠️ Do not use hardware wallet (like Ledger, Trezor) as some signatures will not go through. We recommend using Metamask.
⚠️ Tokens with tax: we highly recommend you to disable any tax on transfer or other special mechanisms on your token to ensure a smooth pair creation and market initialisation at the end of the ILO.
⚠️ Double check the router used, PSC v2 and not v1.
⚠️ You can test your ILO on our launchpad easily, it might be worth it to see if the creation process is smooth.
