Address Gate Guard
Last updated March 10, 2026
The Address Gate guard restricts minting from a Core Candy Machine to a single wallet address, rejecting all other wallets that attempt to mint.
Overview
The Address Gate guard restricts the mint to a single address which must match the address of the minting wallet.
Guard Settings
The Address Gate guard contains the following settings:
- Address: The only address that is allowed to mint from the Core Candy Machine.
Set up a Core Candy Machine using the Address Gate guard
create(umi, {
// ...
guards: {
addressGate: some({ address: someWallet.publicKey }),
},
});
API References: create, AddressGate
Now, only the defined public key will be able to mint from this Core Candy Machine.
Mint Settings
The Address Gate guard does not need Mint Settings.
Route Instruction
The Address Gate guard does not support or require the route instruction.
Notes
- The Address Gate guard permits only a single wallet address. To allow multiple wallets, use the Allow List guard instead.
- This guard compares the minting wallet address against the configured address at mint time; no pre-validation route instruction is required.
