Berlin, Germany – Safe, the innovative smart wallet infrastructure team behind Safe{Core}, which secures over $100 billion in digital assets on Safe{Wallet}, has introduced the Safe{Core} Gas Station program in partnership with Pimlico. This program aims to cover network transaction costs (gas fees) for early-stage developers working with smart accounts, supported by leading blockchains like Polygon PoS and Gnosis Chain.

The Safe{Core} Gas Station program has allocated $250k in gas fee credits, with $200k designated for Polygon PoS developers and $50k for Gnosis Chain developers. By utilizing the ERC-4337 standard for account abstraction, originally conceived by Vitalik Buterin and Ethereum developers, Safe{Core} is looking to enhance user experience and security benefits throughout the blockchain ecosystem.
“The launch of Safe{Core} Gas Station is a significant milestone in our mission to democratize digital ownership. Just as users are not responsible for AWS costs in Web2 apps, they should not be in Web3. By incentivizing developers on prominent platforms like Polygon and Gnosis Chain, we aim to greatly enhance the EVM user experience.”
Lukas Schor, Co-founder at Safe
Kristof Gazso, Founder at Pimlico, added, “Our goal with this collaboration is to empower Web3 developers to concentrate on innovation. Safe is leading the way towards a future founded on account abstraction, equipping developers with the necessary tools to create secure, user-centric experiences.”
The program not only reduces early user acquisition costs through sponsored transactions but also encourages acquisition campaigns and seamless user onboarding. It welcomes developers building on Safe{Core} or utilizing Safe smart contracts, with Pimlico serving as the paymaster for fee coverage.
Web3 developers interested in participating can apply for the Safe{Core} Gas Station program and find more information at safe.global/gas-station.
