Candy Machine v3
We are fully integrated into MetaPlex's Candy Machine v3 protocol to enable mint protection using Candy Guard.
Permissioning with Civic Pass & Candy Guard allows you to verify minters in real-time, evaluating every request to mint by your criteria, including:
conducting a bot check using CAPTCHA
checking for liveness and uniqueness
checking for a minimum age
checking buyers from locations you want to allow
checking ID documents
You can use our reference implementation UI template using Candy Machine V3 with integrated Civic Pass ->
We recommend using the latest sugar command line tool to create your mint.
Creating a protected mint using Sugar CLI
In Candy Machine v3 creation of the token guard is separate from the mint.
install sugar: currently sugar support for Candy Machine is alpha mode and needs to be downloaded here
Create your mint (with Candy Machine v3 the mint and the token guard are created separately). Follow the prompts on the CLI:
A config.json should have been created. Edit this file and add a 'guards' section (see the section below for alternative networks):
Create the guard for your mint:
The script should run successfully and you should see output like below:
Enabling Civic Pass Checks
CAPTCHA Check
When CAPTCHA is enabled, a user will be issued a Civic Pass after successfully completing a CAPTCHA challenge and automatically checked by the Candy Machine prior to minting.
Use this guard's config for CAPTCHA protection:
A Civic CAPTCHA Pass remains active only for 10 minutes and for one mint to limit the options of malicious botters verifying multiple wallets. If a user tries to use an inactive pass, it will automatically prompt them to refresh it.
Liveness Check
When liveness is enabled, a user must do a 3D video selfie to prove they are a real person and not a bot before they can mint.
Use this guard's config for liveness protection:
Uniqueness Check
When uniqueness is enabled, the user must do a 3D video selfie to ensure that a real person only uses one wallet to mint. You can decide how many NFTs this unique user can mint.
Contact us to get the gatekeeper information to setup your guard's config.
Age Check
When age check is enabled, the user must provide a government issued ID and complete a 3D video selfie before they they are issued a Civic Pass.
Contact us to get the gatekeeper information to setup your guard's config.
Location Check
When IP-based location check (including VPN detection) is enabled, the user must be in a country that you allow to participate in your mint prior to being issued a Civic Pass.
Contact us to get the gatekeeper information to setup your guard's config.
ID Document Check
When enabled, the user must provide a government issued ID and complete a 3D video selfie before they they are issued a Civic Pass.
Contact us to get the gatekeeper information to setup your guard's config.
