The following steps will help you to create your NFT collection easily:
Visit your store website and click on the third icon on the top right, the icon would display a drop-down list, and select the ‘My NFTs’ option.
The ‘My NFTs' option would take you to the NFT page of your store. Here, on the left side, you will see ‘My Collection’, click on that and then click on the ‘Create Now’ button at the bottom.
A pop-up will appear. At the top, you will have the option to choose between ‘Deploy New Smart Contract’ and ‘ Use Shared Smart Contract. Click on ‘Use Shared Smart Contract’.
If you want to be cost-effective and save the gas, ‘Use Shared Smart Contract’ will work best for you. Here you only have to pay a very small amount to mint the NFTs in the form of Approval fee. Once the collection has been created you cannot delete it and if you still want to force stop it then press the contact us button at the right bottom of the screen.
Furthermore, you are required to select the blockchain on which you would like to deploy the respective collection. NFTICALLY currently supports a number of blockchain networks, namely – Ethereum, Polygon, Binance Smart Chain, Cronos, and Avalanche Fuji. You may choose any one of these.
The next step would be to give a name to the collection.
