PinkLock Alternative for Solana — Why Solana Projects Choose StakePoint Over PinkLock in 2026

Looking for a PinkLock alternative on Solana? PinkLock charges 1 SOL per lock and was built for EVM chains first. StakePoint is Solana-native with full DEX support, Token-2022 compatibility, and a public on-chain explorer.

PinkLock is the liquidity locker built into the PinkSale launchpad ecosystem. On EVM chains like BSC and Ethereum it has a long track record and is free to use. On Solana it works, but it was not built for Solana first — and that distinction matters when you are locking LP tokens on Raydium, Meteora, or PumpSwap.

Lock LP or Tokens on Solana

What Is PinkLock?

PinkLock is the token and LP locking product within PinkSale. It supports simple time locks and vesting schedules across multiple blockchains including BSC, Ethereum, Polygon, Arbitrum, Avalanche, Fantom, Cronos, and Solana. Projects that run a presale through PinkSale often use PinkLock because it keeps everything in one interface.

On most EVM chains, PinkLock is free. On Solana, PinkSale charges a flat fee of 1 SOL per lock. That is confirmed in PinkSale's own documentation.

What PinkLock Offers on Solana

PinkLock on Solana supports both token locks and LP token locks. You can set a simple unlock date or configure a vesting schedule with a TGE release and recurring unlock intervals. The lock owner can be a different wallet to the one creating the lock.

Contracts are audited by InterFi. Locks are visible inside the PinkSale interface using the connected wallet.

Where PinkLock Has Limitations on Solana

DEX support is not fully documented. PinkSale's core LP locking documentation focuses on EVM DEXs like PancakeSwap. Specific documentation for locking Raydium AMM v4, Raydium CPMM, Meteora DAMM v1/v2, Orca, or PumpSwap LP tokens on Solana is not publicly available. If your project launched on Raydium CPMM or Meteora and you want to lock that specific LP token, you would need to verify compatibility directly with PinkSale before proceeding.

Token-2022 is not documented as supported. Solana's Token-2022 standard enables transfer fees, interest-bearing tokens, and other extensions. PinkLock does not document Token-2022 compatibility on Solana. If your token uses the Token-2022 standard, you should confirm support before locking.

Transfer tax friction. PinkLock's documentation explicitly requires users to exclude the PinkLock contract address from any transfer fee or tax mechanics before locking. If this step is skipped and your token has a transfer tax, the lock transaction will fail or lock an incorrect amount.

No standalone public explorer. Locks are viewable inside the PinkSale dashboard for the connected wallet. There is no independent public-facing explorer at a shareable URL where anyone can browse all Solana locks on PinkLock without connecting a wallet.

The 1 SOL fee. At current SOL prices this is a meaningful cost for a single lock operation. On most competing Solana-native lockers the platform fee is either zero or a fraction of that amount.

How StakePoint Compares

StakePoint was built specifically for Solana. The smart contract is an Anchor program deployed on Solana mainnet, secured by a 3-of-4 Squads multisig with hardware wallet signers.

DEX support: Raydium AMM v4, Raydium CPMM, Meteora DAMM v1, Meteora DAMM v2, Orca, and PumpSwap. If your project launched on any of these, the LP token is supported directly.

Token standard support: Full SPL and Token-2022 compatibility. Token-2022 transfer tax tokens are handled natively without requiring manual contract exclusions beforehand.

Public explorer: Every lock created on StakePoint appears on the public explorer at stakepoint.app/locks. No wallet connection is needed to view locks. Each lock has its own shareable URL that can be posted in a Telegram or Discord as verifiable on-chain proof.

Token locks: Any SPL or Token-2022 token can be locked — team allocations, dev wallets, seed round tokens, marketing wallets, or any custom allocation. Multiple locks with different amounts and durations can be created from the same wallet.

When PinkLock Still Makes Sense

If your project is running a presale through PinkSale and wants everything in one place, PinkLock integrates natively into that flow. The 1 SOL fee is the tradeoff for that convenience. For projects not already inside the PinkSale ecosystem, a Solana-native locker is a more practical choice.
