   Or, Add Contract to select a smart contract that you’d like to sponsor.

   
3. Add Payment & Configure

   Now, we are going to add a payment method via a credit card in order to fund the sponsorship. Go to the gas sponsorship configuration and select Setup Payment Method.

   Add a payment method which will update your gas sponsorship configuration.

   You can either do a one-time top off or an automated top-up based on preferred ranges so you can precisely configure how much you’d like to willing to subsidize for your users each month. Once you have selected your top-up amounts, go ahead and save your settings.

   We will automatically notify you if your balance falls below $5 and you have sponsored contracts.

4. Test your Sponsorship

   We recommend testing out your sponsorships prior to launching. Simply call the contract or use your sponsored wallet for a mainnet transaction. You should shortly see the sponsored transactions list populating with these transactions - all gas free.
