Buy-later launch

For a launch that wants buyers to commit before they pay full price.

On this page

Deploying soonSet it up now without Pay Later, which is deploying soon. Runs on live blocks.

A crown pool and a desk pool handed to Pay Later after launch, so buyers can pay a premium now for the right to buy at a fixed price later.

Why it is different. Demand shows up as paid reservations before it shows up as price.

The pools

Launch · split 70/30

How the pools work together

  • Pay Later sells reservations: a premium of 1% to 50% (5% by default) for the right to buy at a fixed price within 5 minutes to 7 days (1 hour by default).
  • While Pay Later holds the pools their liquidity stays locked, and it keeps taking reservations until the creator accepts the pools back.
  • Family Crown would run one crown across both pools. Proposed
