On Finay, we use a process called lazy minting to make NFT creation efficient and user-friendly. With lazy minting, your NFT isn’t minted on the blockchain right away. Instead, it is created and only officially minted—recorded on the blockchain—when someone purchases it. This approach saves on upfront minting costs, making it more accessible for creators and allowing NFTs to be listed for sale without an immediate blockchain transaction.

How Long Does Lazy Minting Take?

Lazy minting is virtually instant once a purchase is made. When someone buys your NFT, the blockchain transaction is processed automatically, and the NFT is minted and transferred to the buyer’s wallet seamlessly. This process typically takes just a few moments, ensuring a smooth and efficient experience for both creators and buyers.
