DEX Listing & Visibility: A Step-by-Step Guide for New Tokens

Published by TOSScoin Research

Executive Summary

DEX visibility is the foundation of memecoin discoverability. DEXScreener, CoinGecko, CoinMarketCap, and Jupiter are the main discovery surfaces for Solana memecoins. This guide lays out exact steps and requirements to claim/upgrade those listings, plus what assets you need ready.

Key points:

  • DEXScreener lists automatically after a pool + 1 transaction.
  • DEXScreener token info only shows via CoinGecko data or paid Enhanced Token Info.
  • Jupiter auto-lists tokens with $250+ liquidity on each side + metadata.
  • Jupiter "Verified" requires 21+ days, 10K daily volume, 100K market cap, 500 holders.

DEXScreener

How listing works (official)

DEXScreener auto-lists any token as soon as it has:

  • A liquidity pool
  • At least one transaction

How to update token info (official)

DEXScreener pulls token description/socials from:

  • CoinGecko listing OR
  • Enhanced Token Info paid product

Source: https://docs.dexscreener.com/token-listing

Enhanced Token Info (paid)

What you need for DEXScreener upgrade

  • Logo (200x200 PNG or larger)
  • Website, Twitter, Telegram, Discord links
  • Token description (short + clear)
  • Circulating supply (if you want accurate market cap)

CoinGecko (summary)

CoinGecko listing unlocks:

  • DEXScreener auto-info
  • Credibility / visibility
  • Required for certain subreddits

Full guide available in: coingecko-coinmarketcap-listing-guide.md

CoinMarketCap (summary)

CMC listing unlocks:

  • Additional discovery
  • Required for some Reddit subs

CMC is often slower and more selective. Apply after CoinGecko.

Jupiter (JUP) Listing & Verification

Automatic listing on Jupiter

Tokens appear automatically if:

  • On-chain metadata exists (Metaplex)
  • Liquidity >= $250 on both buy and sell sides
  • Price impact < 30%

Source: https://station.jup.ag/docs/get-your-token-onto-jup

Note (March 2026): The Jupiter docs URL above now returns 404. Jupiter docs were migrated to dev.jup.ag. Until confirmed, treat the thresholds as provisional.

Jupiter "Strict" list (Verified)

Default Jupiter UI shows Strict list only. To get verified:

  • Must submit to catdetlist.jup.ag

Verification requirements (official):

  • Token at least 21 days old
  • Daily volume > $10K
  • Market cap > $100K
  • Unique metadata (symbol/name not duplicating)
  • 500+ unique holders

Jupiter Tokens API (Visibility Check)

Jupiter exposes a Tokens V2 search endpoint that can be used to confirm token visibility/metadata in their ecosystem:

  • GET /tokens/v2/search?query={query} (via https://api.jup.ag)

Note: endpoint now returns 401 Unauthorized without an API key. A key is required via portal.jup.ag (per Jupiter docs).

Jupiter docs migration (FYI)

station.jup.ag now redirects to the Jupiter Developers Platform (dev.jup.ag), confirming doc migration. Use dev.jup.ag for official docs going forward.

DEXScreener Trending Score (how to rank)

DEXScreener's trending score considers:

  • Market activity: volume, liquidity, transactions, unique makers, holders
  • Community engagement: visitors to the DEXScreener page, reactions (rocket/fire/poop/flag emojis)
  • Trust/credibility: verified info + Enhanced Token Info; audits/open-source get a boost

Practical implication: drive real volume + engage on the DEXScreener page; verify token info to boost trust score.

DEXScreener search behavior (official)

Token Listing docs confirm DEXScreener search supports:

  • name
  • symbol
  • token address
  • pair address

Always include both mint address + pair address in posts so users can find your token fast in DEXScreener search.

Source: https://docs.dexscreener.com/token-listing

DEXScreener API endpoints for visibility tracking

Reference docs expose endpoints like:

  • /community-takeovers/latest/v1
  • /ads/latest/v1 (with 60 rpm rate-limit noted in docs)

Live endpoint checks:

  • /token-boosts/latest/v1 returns currently boosted tokens in real time.
  • /orders/v1/{chainId}/{tokenAddress} returns active paid order state (orders, boosts) for a token.

You can monitor active ads/takeovers/boosts programmatically to benchmark promo pressure and timing against competitors.

Sources:

GeckoTerminal (CoinGecko DEX tracker)

  • Your pool appears automatically on GeckoTerminal once created
  • GeckoTerminal presence helps CoinGecko listing (they use it for verification posts)

Asset Checklist (Needed for All Listings)

  • Token Name + Symbol
  • Mint/contract address
  • Project website
  • Twitter account
  • Telegram public link (needed for CG + DEXScreener + community)
  • Logo (200x200 PNG, transparent bg)
  • Metadata JSON
  • DEXScreener pool URL
  • GeckoTerminal pool URL

Recommended Action Plan (Priority Order)

  1. Make Telegram public link (blocking CG + DEXScreener upgrade)
  2. Apply to CoinGecko (free, unlocks DEXScreener auto-info)
  3. Claim DEXScreener token info
    • Option A: wait for CoinGecko listing
    • Option B: pay for Enhanced Token Info
  4. Increase liquidity (target $500-$1K minimum)
  5. Boost daily volume (small daily buys/sells)
  6. Apply to CMC after CG
  7. Jupiter Verified later (requires age + volume + holders)

Fresh DEXScreener Notes (Verified, March 2026)

Pulled from DEXScreener's official docs + marketplace:

  • Auto-listing rule: tokens appear once there's a pool + at least one transaction.
  • How token info appears: DEXScreener pulls token metadata (description/socials) from external token lists like CoinGecko, or via Enhanced Token Info (paid).
  • FDV formula: FDV = (total supply - burned supply) * price. If circulating supply is provided (via CoinGecko or Enhanced Token Info), DEXScreener will use it to calculate market cap.
  • Enhanced Token Info processing time: usually minutes, allow up to 12 hours.

Sources:

Practical implication: you can either wait for CG listing to populate DEXScreener data, or pay for Enhanced Token Info to get socials/logo/circulating supply live immediately.
