Safe is excited to announce a new initiative: the Safe{Core} Multi-chain Gas Station program. This program directly supports developers by giving credits to cover gas fees with ERC-4337 paymasters, enabling a smoother UX for users on the EVM. Here’s how it works and why you should apply.

Launching Safe{Core} Gas Station

The Safe{Core} Multi-chain Gas Station is designed to support developers by giving credits to cover gas fees, allowing them to radically improve their in-app UX. Here’s what it brings to the table:

  • Integrate Safe + 4337 Module: Build and embed Safe smart account with the ERC 4337 module enabled allowing interaction with paymasters and bundlers.

  • Apply for Free Gas Credits: Get free gas credits worth $250K on top networks like Polygon and Gnosis Chain. Applications open on August 1, 2024.

$200k available on Polygon PoS

$50k on Gnosis Chain.

  • Pay for Users' Gas with 4337 Paymasters: Utilize paymasters to cover your users' gas fees, making your dApps more accessible.

Who Benefits from Safe{Core} Gas Station?

Our Vision

The Safe{Core} Gas Station aims to reduce financial barriers for early-stage developers, making app development more accessible. In a multi-chain future, gas sponsorship is crucial for the growth and adoption of decentralized applications. By covering gas fees, we aim to make EVM UX smoother and incentivize developers to build gasless apps. Our vision is for the Safe{Core} Gas Station to become the go-to source for gas credits, bootstrapping the next generation of gasless apps. We believe over time, that a scaling application's profitability will surpass the smart wallet's operational costs, and Safe{Core} gas credits can be eliminated entirely as the application will generate sufficient user fees to support gas costs.

Future Initiatives

The Safe{Core} Gas Station program also includes efforts to promote building on Safe smart accounts and networks. This collaboration provides:

  • Cohesive AA Strategy: Safe, Polygon, Gnosis Chain, Pimlico, will all push to onboard users onchain via Account Abstraction and the Safe{Core} Gas Station program.

  • dApp Distribution and Scaling: Early exposure for developers to programs, initiatives and events that help them scale their apps.

Join Us in Fueling the Future

The Safe{Core} Gas Station program is here to make gasless app development more secure, accessible, and innovative. We invite developers, projects, and partners to join us on this exciting journey. Together, we can fuel the future of 4337 and build a better web3 ecosystem.

Stay tuned for more updates and get ready to apply when the program goes live in August 2024!
