  3. Choose parameters of a Linkdrop: token (e.g. 0xaec2e87e0a235266d9c5adc9deb4b2e29b54d009 for SNGLS), tokens dropped per link, Ether per link (optional), amount of links:

4. Deploy the Linkdrop Smart Contract by clicking the “Create” button:

5. Set gas price according to ETH Gas Station. (Choose Standard Gas Price minimum.)

Don’t close this page while transaction is processing. If it takes too long, just refresh the status by clicking the “Refresh” button

7. Approve the Linkdrop Smart Contract to send tokens on your behalf. (Approve button will appear after the Smart Contract is deployed.)

Click on the “Approve” button
