# For User

## Why Do We Have Gas Fee Sponsorship? 

Sending tokens on blockchains always requires gas fees. For newcomers, this is a heavy barrier. They may not fully understand gas, and each chain needs its specific native token to pay for it. Without the right token on the right chain, users get stuck—they can’t move their tokens anywhere.

EIP-7702 changes this. It allows gas fees to be sponsored by another source, removing one of the biggest roadblocks for new users in crypto.

## Gas Fee Sponsorship Benefits? 

Gas Fee Sponsorship removes a major friction in using blockchain apps: paying gas fees. With sponsorship active, users can send tokens without holding the network’s native token — gas is still paid, just by someone else.

This makes onboarding faster and smoother, especially for newcomers unfamiliar with gas or acquiring tokens. It’s a game-changer for mobile-first experiences, where simplicity drives adoption.

## How to utilize the Gas Fee Sponsorship feature?&#x20;

Using **Gas Fee Sponsorship** is simple and direct:

1. **Navigate to the Gas Fee Section:**\
   When you are about to **send tokens**, scroll down to the Gas Fee section.
2. **Check for Sponsorship Availability:**\
   If a sponsor is available, an option to **select a Gas Fee Sponsor** will appear.
3. **View Available Sponsors:**\
   Once you select this option, you will see **sponsor banners** displayed for you to choose from.
4. **Select Your Sponsor:**\
   Choose your sponsor, and the system will allocate them to cover the gas fee for your send transaction.

#### Note:

Sponsor banners operate on a **pre-funded pool** for gas fees. If many users use the same sponsor and the remaining funds fall below the required minimum, the banner will become **unavailable**.

When this happens, you will see the sponsor banner appear **dimmed or greyed out**, and it will not be selectable until it is funded again.

The Gas Fee Sponsor feature is currently **available exclusively for sending tokens**. Other gas-fee-required actions, such as swapping or bridging, **are not eligible for sponsorship at this time**.
