The Open Gas Initiative is an industry-wide initiative designed to eliminate gas fees from the end-user experience and streamline transaction UX for users. In rolling out this initiative, we look to increase user adoption, encourage certain user behaviors and position your protocol as both a catalyst and ecosystem leader.
Gas Rebates are batched, occurring monthly with payments initially in ETH. These payments may soon be done in your protocol token thus turning every transaction into increase net-buying pressure 🔥 We look to add optional auto-staking back to your protocol to the extent that staking is provided. 🚀
We’re also offering token incentives to both you, and your users to join.
We’re excited you’re here! We’re officially launching our Open Gas Partner Program alongside leading Ethereum protocols and would love to have you join us.
We designed the system to require zero technical integration from your team:
1️⃣ Design the Rebate Structure: In this step, you decide which contracts and functions are covered under the Open Gas initiative. To help you evaluate this process, we’ve built a self-service tool that enables you to input your ABI and retrieve the contracts/functions accordingly:
You can access that here: https://www.ethgas.com/gas-rebates/protocols/
If you have any difficulty with this, please reach out and share your key contract addresses and we'll provide an estimation of gas fees. You can then define the on-chain functions that best align with your budget and user behavior goals (e.g. adding TVL versus removing TVL). Note that these can be adjusted up/down over time as needed.
2️⃣ Gather Data: ETHGas automatically aggregates all relevant gas rebates, providing you with a live dashboard featuring actionable insights on user growth and retention.
3️⃣ Monthly Funding: We send you a monthly report of accrued rebates. You then make one transfer into our Router contract.
