Gasless Transactions on Flow

Flow is a blockchain with no gas fees for end users, making it one of the easiest platforms for developers to onboard new users. Gasless transactions are a native feature of the Flow Protocol: the Flow Wallet automatically sponsors transactions on both testnet and mainnet. This allows developers to build seamless Web3 applications without requiring users to manage gas tokens or pay transaction fees.

In addition to native sponsorship, Flow also supports multiple methods for gas sponsorship that can be tailored to your application’s needs. You can learn about these approaches in more detail here.

The Flow Wallet currently sponsors all transactions - on testnet and mainnet! This is possible because sponsored transactions are a native feature of the Flow Protocol. Additional methods for gas sponsorship are available and are described here.
