EVM Gas Sponsorship lets your users send EVM transactions without paying gas. Dynamic relays the transaction on their behalf and uses EIP-7702 delegation to execute batched calls from the user’s embedded wallet.
EVM Gas Sponsorship is available exclusively for V3 MPC embedded wallets. Contact us to enable it for your project.

How it works

A sponsored transaction is a batch of { target, data, value } calls that Dynamic submits on-chain on the user’s behalf:
  1. The user’s embedded wallet signs an EIP-712 intent that authorizes the calls and binds them to a relayer address and a deadline.
  2. The first time a wallet is sponsored, the SDK also signs an EIP-7702 authorization to delegate the EOA to Dynamic’s gasless delegation contract. After activation, the delegation persists on-chain and is reused on subsequent transactions.
  3. Dynamic’s relayer submits the transaction and reports a pendingsubmittedsuccess (or failure) lifecycle. The on-chain transaction hash is available once the relay reports submitted.

Prerequisites

Before you start, make sure you have:

Setup

Install the extension

npx expo install @dynamic-labs/ethereum-gasless-extension

Extend the Dynamic client

Add EthereumGaslessExtension() to the extension chain on your existing createClient() call. This adds an ethereumGasless namespace to the client.
client.ts
import { createClient } from '@dynamic-labs/client';
import { ReactNativeExtension } from '@dynamic-labs/react-native-extension';
import { ViemExtension } from '@dynamic-labs/viem-extension';
import { EthereumGaslessExtension } from '@dynamic-labs/ethereum-gasless-extension';

export const dynamicClient = createClient({
  environmentId: 'YOUR_ENVIRONMENT_ID',
  appName: 'My App',
  appOrigin: 'https://YOUR-DOMAIN.com',
})
  .extend(ReactNativeExtension())
  .extend(ViemExtension())
  .extend(EthereumGaslessExtension());

Check if sponsorship is enabled

Call isEnabled to confirm that sponsorship is turned on for your environment. Use this to gate UI before showing a “Send gasless” button.
import { dynamicClient } from './client';

const enabled = await dynamicClient.ethereumGasless.isEnabled();

Send a sponsored transaction

send signs the intent, hands it to the relayer, and resolves once the transaction is included on-chain. The calls array supports batches — every entry runs atomically.
import { useReactiveClient } from '@dynamic-labs/react-hooks';
import { parseEther } from 'viem';

import { dynamicClient } from './client';

function SendGasless() {
  const { wallets } = useReactiveClient(dynamicClient);
  const wallet = wallets.primary;

  const send = async () => {
    if (!wallet || wallet.chain !== 'EVM') return;

    const { transactionHash } = await dynamicClient.ethereumGasless.send({
      wallet,
      calls: [
        {
          target: '0xRecipient...',
          data: '0x',
          value: parseEther('0.01'),
        },
      ],
    });

    console.log('Transaction hash:', transactionHash);
  };

  return <Button title="Send (gasless)" onPress={send} disabled={!wallet} />;
}

Call shape

Each entry in calls describes a single call inside the sponsored batch:
FieldTypeDescription
target`0x${string}`Contract or recipient address to execute the call against.
data`0x${string}`Hex-encoded calldata. Use 0x for a plain native transfer.
valuebigintNative token amount (in wei) to send with the call.
For contract calls, encode data with encodeFunctionData from viem:
import { encodeFunctionData, parseUnits } from 'viem';

const ERC20_TRANSFER_ABI = [
  {
    inputs: [
      { name: 'to', type: 'address' },
      { name: 'amount', type: 'uint256' },
    ],
    name: 'transfer',
    outputs: [{ name: '', type: 'bool' }],
    stateMutability: 'nonpayable',
    type: 'function',
  },
] as const;

const transferCall = {
  target: '0xTokenAddress...',
  data: encodeFunctionData({
    abi: ERC20_TRANSFER_ABI,
    functionName: 'transfer',
    args: ['0xRecipient...', parseUnits('1', 6)],
  }),
  value: 0n,
};

Options

Pass these alongside wallet and calls:
OptionDefaultDescription
autoDelegatetrueWhen true, the SDK signs an EIP-7702 authorization if the wallet is not already delegated. Set to false if you manage delegation yourself.
authorizationPre-signed EIP-7702 authorization. Takes priority over autoDelegate.
validForSeconds600How long the signed intent stays valid before the relayer rejects it.

Split signing and relaying

For retry, batching, or custom UI flows, you can split the steps:
  • sign returns the signed intent without contacting the relayer.
  • relay sends a signed intent (or signs and sends in one step) and returns a requestId.
  • waitFor polls a requestId until it resolves to an on-chain transaction.
  • getStatus does a one-shot status read for custom polling.
const wallet = dynamicClient.wallets.primary;

// Sign now, relay later
const signed = await dynamicClient.ethereumGasless.sign({ wallet, calls });

const { requestId } = await dynamicClient.ethereumGasless.relay({
  wallet,
  calls,
});

const { transactionHash } = await dynamicClient.ethereumGasless.waitFor({
  requestId,
});

// Or read the current status without polling
const status = await dynamicClient.ethereumGasless.getStatus({ requestId });
status.status is one of pending, submitted, success, or failure. status.transactionHash is populated once the relay reports submitted; status.errorMessage is populated on failure.

EIP-7702 delegation

The first sponsored transaction from a given wallet activates EIP-7702 delegation to Dynamic’s gasless contract. By default send and relay handle this for you via autoDelegate: true. If you want to manage delegation explicitly — for example, to surface an “Enable gasless” button before the first transaction — use these methods directly.

Check delegation status

const wallet = dynamicClient.wallets.primary;

const isDelegated =
  await dynamicClient.ethereumGasless.is7702DelegationActive({ wallet });
Results are cached per wallet and chain.

Sign a 7702 authorization

sign7702Authorization returns a signed authorization without broadcasting anything. Pass it to a later send, relay, or activate7702Delegation call.
const wallet = dynamicClient.wallets.primary;

const authorization =
  await dynamicClient.ethereumGasless.sign7702Authorization({
    wallet,
    // Defaults to the wallet's active network chain ID.
    // chainId: 1,
  });

Activate delegation explicitly

activate7702Delegation sends a sponsored transaction whose only purpose is to activate the delegation on-chain. After it resolves, subsequent sponsored transactions skip the authorization step.
const wallet = dynamicClient.wallets.primary;

// Sign now, activate later
const authorization =
  await dynamicClient.ethereumGasless.sign7702Authorization({ wallet });

const { transactionHash } =
  await dynamicClient.ethereumGasless.activate7702Delegation({
    wallet,
    authorization,
  });

// Or have the SDK sign and activate in one call
await dynamicClient.ethereumGasless.activate7702Delegation({ wallet });

Error handling

Sponsorship failures throw — there is no silent fallback. Wrap calls in try/catch and surface a useful message to the user:
try {
  const { transactionHash } = await dynamicClient.ethereumGasless.send({
    wallet,
    calls,
  });
} catch (error) {
  // The relay returned a terminal failure, polling timed out, or the API errored.
  console.error('Sponsored transaction failed:', error);
}
Common failure causes:
  • EVM Gas Sponsorship is not enabled for the environment.
  • The wallet is not a V3 MPC embedded wallet.
  • The wallet’s active network is not supported by the relayer.
  • The signed intent expired (validForSeconds elapsed before the relayer ran).
  • A terminal on-chain failure on the relayed transaction.

Limitations

LimitationDetails
Wallet typeV3 MPC embedded wallets only. External wallets and legacy embedded wallets are not supported.
ChainEVM networks where Dynamic has enabled a relayer. Use isEnabled and is7702DelegationActive to gate UI per chain.
Batch sizeCalls execute atomically inside one sponsored transaction — the whole batch reverts if any call fails.
Intent lifetimeThe signed intent expires after validForSeconds (default 600). Sign close to the time you relay.
