From the homepage, click the button that says ****Start a Party.

Give the Party a name.

Set the goal for your Party. You can start a Party to do one of two things:

• Crowdfund - Your Party will be able to hold and spend ETH in any way. You can do so in the following ways:
  • Flexible crowdfund - These allow members to contribute any amount, with variable voting power for each membership. ****You set a minimum ETH goal for the crowdfund, which must be met for the crowdfund to be a success. You can also set a minimum contribution amount for each member of the Party.
  • Membership mint - These set a fixed voting power for each membership. You will need to set a price for each membership and determine if there is a max supply of memberships. Members can purchase as many memberships as they want.
• Make an NFT purchase - Your Party will crowdfund to purchase NFTs one time, and is restricted to using and selling these NFTs in protected ways. You’ll need to provide a link to the NFT or NFT collection you’d like to Party on. Party accepts the following links:
  • OpenSea listing
  • OpenSea collection
  • Zora auction
  • Foundation auction

Add other Party Hosts (optional). You can add additional Hosts by inputting their Ethereum address or ENS name. Hosts are responsible for choosing the item to purchase in a Collection Party, setting Host Messages, and vetoing governance proposals when necessary. There can be up to 10 Hosts, including the Party’s creator. By creating the Party, you are automatically set as a Party Host and cannot be removed.

Set a duration for the crowdfund. If the Party hasn’t purchased the item within this timeframe, the crowdfund will automatically expire, allowing contributors to reclaim their ETH.

Make the Party public or private. Public Parties allow any Ethereum address to contribute. Private Parties limit which addresses can contribute and can be limited to an allow list or gated by a minimum balance of ERC-20 or ERC-721 tokens.

Choose the recipient and percentage of the Host Fee (optional). If a Host Fee is included, the designated address will get a specific amount of the Party's total voting power after the crowdfund ends, even if they don't contribute ETH to the crowdfund. The Host Fee lowers the voting power of the Party’s contributors, so be careful not to set it too high.

Adjust the governance settings. Customize the acceptance threshold, the length of the veto period, and the length of proposal expiration. There are a few things to consider:

1. Acceptance Threshold - The percentage of total votes that must accept a proposal for it to pass. The higher the acceptance threshold, the harder it is to pass proposals. You should only set a high threshold if you expect to have high participation from members of the Party.

2. Veto Period - A fixed amount of time that each proposal must wait to be executed after passing. During this time, any Party Host can veto the proposal. The longer the veto period, the more time Party Hosts have to veto proposals. However, a longer veto period also means proposals must wait longer to execute. You should set a longer veto period if you expect Party Hosts will be less active in checking on the Party.

3. Proposal Expiration - The amount of time that each proposal is live for voting before it expires. A longer proposal expiration gives your Party more time to vote and pass the proposal. Importantly, a longer proposal expiration does not slow down your Party; once a proposal reaches the acceptance threshold, it automatically moves into the veto period.
