Projects apply to list on HTX through its official Apply to List page, choosing Initial Listing (for projects not listed on any DEX or CEX) or Direct Listing (for projects already listed on another DEX or CEX). The form asks whether you already have contact with an HTX BD manager and requires agreement to HTX’s Listing Terms and Conditions; HTX gives listing@htx-inc.com for questions.

Key takeaways

  • Two routes: Initial Listing (not listed anywhere) and Direct Listing (already on a DEX or CEX).
  • Apply on HTX’s official Apply to List page and agree to its Listing Terms.
  • Questions go to listing@htx-inc.com, according to HTX.
  • HTX does not state fees or timelines on the application page.

Which route fits you

If your token already trades on a DEX, it is a Direct Listing candidate; bring on-chain metrics, liquidity data, and holder distribution. An Initial Listing means HTX may be the first market for the token, which puts even more weight on listing-day liquidity.

Prepare before applying

Use the pre-listing checklist and line up a market maker who can cover HTX pairs from launch.
