Lunch.fun Robinhood Launch

Launch a Robinhood Chain token on lunch.fun straight into its permanent Uniswap pool, quoted in ETH, HOOD, USDG, PEPE, or a tokenized stock, with an atomic launch bundle, optional creator tax and holder rewards, holder cleanup, and starter strategies.

Lunch.fun Robinhood Launch

Sumo supports Robinhood lunch.fun launches on Robinhood Chain. lunch.fun is a pool launchpad with no bonding curve and no migration: the launcher mints the whole supply into a single single-sided position in the pool the coin trades on from block one, and buys walk the price up from the launch tick. Sumo plans the ordered launch buys with the same integer pool math the backend planner uses, simulates them, and submits creation plus every launch buy as one atomic bundle.

Because there is no curve to buy out and no pool to migrate into, Sumo offers Bundle mode only on lunch.fun. There is no Graduation Bundle and there are no post-graduation wallets.

Prerequisites

Before launching, make sure you have:

  1. Token metadata ready: name, ticker, image, description, and social links
  2. ETH on Robinhood Chain for the launch buys (or, on a non-ETH quote, for the funding swap that acquires it), the creator gas reserve, and per-wallet cleanup buffers
  3. A launch plan: quote asset, total supply, supply control target, optional dev buy, creator tax and holder rewards settings, bundle wallet count, and holder cleanup preference
  4. A wallet plan: use ready wallets from private keys, Wallet Farm, or another profile, or create new Robinhood Chain wallets / buy aged EVM wallets through Wallet Marketplace during the wizard

Fair Launch and Tax Launch

The Creator Tax setting picks which lunch.fun launcher creates the token, and with it the pool the coin lives in permanently. Sumo offers quotes accepted by both configured launchers and price the launch from the same per-quote launch tick. A tax launch can additionally share the creator's part of the tax with the coin's holders — see Holder Rewards.

Creator earnings50% of the pool's 1% trading fee, through the lunch.fun pair fee lockerThe creator tax, less the 20% lunch.fun keeps and less any share paid to holders. The pool's 0.3% LP fee compounds into the locked position instead.
After launchFixedThe creator can retune both tax rates on-chain (setRates), and lunch.fun's admin can reassign the creator

Tax Launches Tax Cleanup Too

On a tax launch the pool is hooked, so a Sell / Buy holder cleanup round trip pays the sell tax and the buy tax once each. Budget for it, or use Token Transfer cleanup instead.

Holder Rewards

Holder Rewards turns a tax launch into a dividend coin: part of the creator's share of every tax is paid out to the people holding the coin, in the asset the pool is quoted in.

Every lunch.fun tax splits the same way first — lunch.fun keeps 20%, the creator gets 80% — and the Share to Holders setting decides how much of that 80% the holders receive:

Buy taxShare to holdersHolders getYou getlunch.fun gets
5%50%2% of every buy2% of every buy1% of every buy
5%100%4% of every buyNothing from the tax1% of every buy
2%25%0.4% of every buy1.2% of every buy0.4% of every buy

The buy setup shows exactly this split for your own rates, for buys and for sells, as you type them.

What to know before turning it on:

  • Rewards are paid in the quote asset. A HOOD-quoted launch pays holders HOOD, a USDG launch pays USDG, a stock-quoted launch pays that stock token, and an ETH-quoted launch pays WETH. They are not paid in the coin.
  • The choice is permanent. Holder Rewards changes the token contract itself, so it is fixed for the life of the coin and, like the creator tax branch and the quote, cannot be changed after the draft is saved. Start a new draft to change it.
  • The share is not permanent. The creator can retune Share to Holders on lunch.fun after launch, the same way the tax rates are retuned.
  • Distribution is automatic. Rewards accrue as trades happen and are pushed out to holders without anyone claiming: Sumo enables lunch.fun's auto-distribution on the coin right after launch. Holders can still claim what they have accrued at any time from lunch.fun.
  • Sumo wallets earn too. Bundle, holder, and injection wallets are ordinary holders, so the coin's rewards accrue to them like any other holder.
  • It requires the creator tax. Holder Rewards is a share of the tax, so the Creator Tax toggle must be on and at least one side must charge something. A fair launch has no tax to share.

Quote Assets

lunch.fun launches can be quoted in ETH or in any token both launchers allow:

QuoteNotes
ETHThe native quote. The launchers price it through WETH, and every buyer wraps its own ETH inside the launch transaction.
HOODlunch.fun's vault-backed HOOD share token.
USDGGlobal Dollar, 6 decimals.
PEPEPepe on Robinhood Chain, 18 decimals. Available for fair, tax, and holder-rewards launches.
Tokenized stocks and ETFs81 stocks and 9 ETFs verified on September 20, 2026: TSLA, NVDA, AAPL, GOOGL, AMZN, MSFT, and the rest of the stock catalogue, plus SPY, QQQ, USO, SGOV, SLV, EWY, SOXX, SPMO, and XLK. The picker groups them by kind and is searchable by ticker, name, or address.

Not every Robinhood pair token Sumo supports elsewhere is allowed on lunch.fun; the picker only offers the ones the launchers accept, and the quote is re-validated against the live on-chain allowlist when the plan is built.

HOOD Is a Vault Share, and Its Liquidity Is Thin

HOOD here is lunch.fun's vault-backed HOOD share token (HoodLighterShare, 0x32aC8C1D7672667D5EbdEa22935F7B06fC8D496f), not a Robinhood-issued stock token; its liquidity is thin, so the funding-swap preview shows the price impact of acquiring it — that, not the launch pool, is what bounds a HOOD bundle.

2. Buy Mode

lunch.fun buy planning runs against the single-sided position the launcher seeds. Only Bundle mode exists: the pool the launch creates is the pool the coin trades on forever.

SettingDescription
Quote AssetThe asset the pool is priced in: ETH, HOOD, USDG, PEPE, or an allowed tokenized stock or ETF. Each quote carries its own launch tick, so the estimates re-read the live terms when you change it.
Total SupplyUser-configurable, unlike most launchpads. Defaults to 1,000,000,000 tokens, the figure lunch.fun's own site presents. Decimals are fixed at 18. The supply must be at least 1,000,000 tokens and at most the launcher's int128 ceiling of 2127-1 base units.
Supply Control TargetTotal supply controlled by the creator plus the bundle buys, capped at 90%. Beyond that the last buys price in tens of quote tokens, because they walk the far end of the position's range. Each bundle wallet needs a positive allocation that can be quoted and executed; there is no fixed minimum supply percentage per wallet.
Estimated ETH RequiredThe ordered launch buys plus the creator gas reserve and configured per-wallet cleanup buffers. On a non-ETH quote this is the ETH the funding swap will spend, and a second row shows the quote total itself.
Estimated Market CapProjected post-bundle spot price from the same pool math the backend planner uses, multiplied by the configured total supply.
Dev BuyOptional dev-wallet buy, executed before the bundle wallets in the same transaction. Set to 0 for no dev buy.
Creator TaxOff for a Uniswap V3 fair launch, or on for a Uniswap V4 tax launch with buy and sell tax of 0% to 5% each. See Fair Launch and Tax Launch.
Holder RewardsShown on a tax launch. On, the coin launches as a dividend token that pays part of your 80% share of every tax out to holders, in the quote asset. Permanent once launched, and fixed once the draft is saved. See Holder Rewards.
Share to HoldersShown when Holder Rewards is on. How much of your 80% of the tax goes to holders, from 0.01% to 100%. Defaults to 50%. The line underneath shows what each buy and each sell pays holders, you, and lunch.fun. You can retune this on lunch.fun after launch.
Bundle WalletsNumber of launch buyers inside the atomic bundle. lunch.fun launches support at most 32. The optional dev buy is separate and does not consume one of these slots.
Injection WalletsOptional extra wallets, up to 100, funded with ETH for activity after launch. They do not buy in the launch or take part in cleanup.
Funds Per Injection WalletShown when Injection Wallets is above 0. ETH sent to each injection wallet during funding. Defaults to 0.
Holder WalletsPost-launch destinations for transfer or sell/buy token cleanup. Up to 400. With Token Cleanup Method Off the wallets are still created, but nothing funds or fills them, and the per-bundle-wallet limits do not apply.
Token Cleanup MethodOff, Token Transfer, or Sell / Buy. Redistributes bundle-wallet tokens to fresh holder wallets after launch confirmation, by direct transfer or by sells and buys through the launch pool.
CEX FundingFunds the launch wallets with ordinary Robinhood Chain ETH cashouts using the standard CEX funding flow.
CEX Funding Buffer Per WalletExtra ETH included in the CEX cashout budget for each launch wallet.
Advanced ControlsBundle supply jitter, bundle slippage, creator gas reserve, funding buffer per wallet, cleanup delay, and holder supply jitter.

One Transaction, Real Buyers

The token creation, the optional dev buy, and every bundle wallet's buy land in a single atomic transaction. Each Sumo wallet is the Uniswap swap sender and the token recipient in its own buy, so the pool records 32 distinct buyers rather than one address distributing afterwards. If any part fails, the whole transaction reverts and nothing is spent beyond gas.

3. Wallets

Add, import, or generate wallets for each required Robinhood Chain role.

RoleDescription
Dev WalletThe creator. Deploys the token and seeds the pool, performs the optional dev buy, and pays launch and cleanup gas.
Bundle WalletsThe launch buyers that execute the ordered pool buys inside the atomic bundle.
Injection WalletsOptional wallets funded with ETH for activity after launch. They take no part in the launch or cleanup.
Holder WalletsReceive tokens through post-launch cleanup when token cleanup is enabled. With Token Cleanup Method Off they are still created and stay empty.

You can use ready wallets, create new wallets, or buy aged wallets at this step. Ready-wallet paths include importing private keys, pulling wallets from Wallet Farm, or reusing wallets from another profile. Additional paths include creating new wallets or buying aged inventory from Wallet Marketplace.

lunch.fun launch tokens have no tax wallet - the optional creator tax is collected by the tax hook against the creator, not routed to a separate role wallet. Freeze and sniper wallets are not used.

4. Funding

Save the draft before funding. If CEX funding is enabled, deposit the estimated Robinhood Chain ETH into the funding wallet, check the balance, then use Fund to distribute ETH. If CEX funding is disabled, fund the dev and bundle wallets directly and use Check Balances.

On an ETH-quoted launch that is all: each buyer wraps its own ETH into WETH inside the launch transaction.

On every other quote the wallets are funded in ETH first and then swapped into the quote before the bundle, through the treasury aggregator route. This is the same funding swap the Pons V2 flow uses. Once every wallet holds at least the swap's own ETH sizing (the funding table shows a wallet's balance in red until it does), Swap ETH to <QUOTE> opens a preview of the swap: the live rate and provider, each wallet's quote shortfall, the ETH it will spend and keep, and an adjustable slippage. Confirming asks Sumo to swap, per wallet, the ETH its remaining quote shortfall needs into the quote token; wallets that already hold their quote are skipped. The swaps land wallet by wallet, so a wallet whose swap fails on-chain keeps its ETH: Check Balances shows the shortfall and the swap can simply be run again for what is missing. Small leftover quote balances after launch are expected. The preview also has a <QUOTE> → ETH direction that swaps quote back into ETH. Its Amount to return control sells either what the wallets hold above their planned buys (the default, so the launch stays funded) or everything, for instance to change the quote token and re-import the wallets into a new launch; at most the sellable total, split across the chosen wallets, with each selling wallet paying for its own approval and swap out of its ETH. The two directions never run at the same time.

The Launch Never Zaps Through the Quote Pool

Buyers hold the quote asset before the bundle is submitted. The launch transaction only buys the new coin; it never routes ETH through the thin HOOD or stock pools, so the funding swap's price impact is visible and adjustable in its own preview instead of being buried in the launch.

The funding table supports address copying, allocation randomization, per-wallet allocation edits, and balance checks.

5. Strategies

Optionally add starter strategies to the profile before launch. You can configure Counter Trade, DCA, and Limit Order strategies by hand, or apply a strategy preset: Sumo ships built-in Hyped, Standard, and Staircase presets, and your org can save its own presets for reuse across launches and imports. Strategies are saved with the draft and can be reviewed after the token is live.

6. Launch Preview

The preview summarizes quote asset, total supply, supply control, dev buy, bundle buy, estimated ETH required, estimated market cap, and the creator tax setting with its buy and sell rates — and, on a rewards launch, the share of the creator tax that goes to holders.

There is no separate deploy or pool-creation step. Two actions are available:

  1. Simulate Launch - Plans the ordered pool buys and reports any blockers before funds move.
  2. Launch Bundle - Hands the launch to the durable runner, which submits the atomic bundle, reads the launch receipt, runs token cleanup when enabled, and activates the profile.

While the runner owns the workflow the action card reports its state: Launch admitted, Submitting atomic bundle, Bundle included, Reading launch receipt, Activating project, and finally Launch complete. Once reconciled, the card also shows the token and pool addresses.

Fees and Referral

lunch.fun charges no launch fee: the V3 pair launcher's launchFeeWei is 0 and the V4 pair launcher charges none. You still pay Sumo's usual launch charge - one Launch Ticket or the 0.25% token-supply dev allocation - as on every other launchpad. See Platform Fees.

lunch.fun's own revenue comes from the pool: 30% of the 1% trading fee on a fair launch, and 20% of the creator tax on a tax launch. Its ReferralSplitter pays a registered referrer 10% of that platform share, and Sumo is registered as the referrer on launches created through Sumo.

After Launch

When the bundle lands and reconciliation completes, the profile becomes active and opens in Live Trading, on the Uniswap V3 pool for a fair launch or the Uniswap V4 pool for a tax launch. On a rewards launch Sumo also enables lunch.fun's automatic reward distribution on the coin, so holders are paid as trades happen without claiming. There is no curve to track and no graduation or migration step: the launch pool is the permanent pool, so live trading, strategies, and holder cleanup all run against it immediately.

lunch.fun shows a "graduation" badge on its own site once a coin passes a net-principal threshold. It is cosmetic - it does not move liquidity or change the pool - and Sumo does not model it.

Creator Fee Claims

lunch.fun pays the creator from the pool. On a fair launch the creator receives the creator share of the 1% Uniswap V3 trading fee (currently 50%; lunch.fun can retune the split, and Sumo reads the live values), in whichever pool token the trade paid its fee in (the quote on buys, the coin on sells); the pair fee locker pushes that share straight to the creator wallet whenever the pool's fees are collected. On a tax launch the creator receives 80% of the creator tax in the quote, less the holder share on a rewards launch; the tax hook keeps it in a ledger the creator wallet withdraws from, converting it to WETH first when lunch.fun has set a route for that quote.

lunch.fun launch profiles expose Claim creator fees in the profile wallet toolbar. The claim reads the creator from the locker or the hook on-chain and refuses clearly when that wallet is not one of the profile's (archived launch wallets count). One click runs every call the launch kind needs from that wallet in order, each recorded on its own: a fair launch collects the pool's fees (and withdraws any payout the locker could not deliver earlier); a tax launch distributes the tax accrued in the pool, waits for it to confirm, then withdraws the creator ledger. The wallet pays only the gas and the fees land in it in full, with no platform cut. The same action is available in Telegram groups through /fees and /claim, where it also works for imported lunch.fun coins whose creator wallet the profile holds.

Claims appear in Treasury Logs as Creator Fee Claim entries with the transaction details and the exact amounts paid; a tax launch's distribution shows as its own Tax Distribution entry. Holder rewards are never part of a claim: lunch.fun's tracker pays holders on its own. Sumo's 10% referral share is separate from creator fees and is not claimed here.

Launch Logs

lunch.fun profiles add a Launch Logs tab for plan simulation, bundle submission, receipt reconciliation, and holder cleanup.
