"Before I even realized it, it had already handled my Gas payment for me." Xiao Wang was among the first users to experience Gate Wallet’s new Gas Station feature. While it may seem simple on the surface, this innovation tackles one of the biggest pain points in the multi-chain ecosystem—Gas fee management.
01 Event Highlights: Limited-Time Gas Station Incentives
On January 27, 2026, Gate Wallet officially launched a week-long special incentive campaign to celebrate the release of the Gas Station feature.
The event runs until February 4 at 06:00 UTC, featuring a prize pool worth a total of 10,000 USDT. The goal is to allow both new and existing users to experience this innovative feature with zero barriers.
The campaign includes three main segments, each designed to meet different user needs.
For newcomers to Gate Wallet, the platform offers a "New User Starter Pack." During the event, users making their first Gas Station deposit of 5 to 100 USDT won’t pay any network fees. Even if your wallet lacks native Gas, you can still complete the deposit—the platform will cover the associated costs.
First-time creators or importers of a Gate Wallet who activate the Gas Station and successfully pre-deposit 5 to 100 USDT during the event will receive not only the basic Gas fee waiver but also an exclusive 2 USDT Gas bonus.
The total prize pool for this first segment is 3,000 USDT, distributed on a first-come, first-served basis. To ensure fairness, the platform uses device deduplication: if multiple wallet addresses from the same device ID participate, only the earliest Gas deposit from that device will qualify.
02 Exclusive Rewards: Benefits for Traders and Referral Program
For users with trading experience, Gate has designed the "Trader Endurance Bonus." During the event, users who reach a cumulative trading volume of at least 2,000 USDT on Gate DEX (including Meme, Perps, Swap, Spot, and other sections) and continue using the Gas Station for network fees will receive a cashback reward equal to 10% of their Gas Station pre-deposit.
Each user can earn up to 30 USDT, with a total prize pool of 7,000 USDT for this segment. Rewards are distributed based on the order in which users reach the trading threshold, until the pool is depleted.
Beyond direct participation, users can earn additional rewards by inviting friends. Visit the Gate DEX invitation page to generate your unique referral link and invite friends to bind your invite code.
Referrers earn a commission of 30% of their friends’ trading volume, while invitees who bind the code within seven days of creating a new wallet receive a 20% rebate on trading fees.
03 Feature Overview: How the Gas Station Works
The Gas Station is a newly launched multi-chain feature in Gate Wallet. By linking a dedicated Gas account to each user’s EVM wallet (1:1), it automatically pays network fees when native Gas is insufficient, preventing transaction interruptions.
Users can choose to pay network fees using Gas from their own EOA account or from their Gas Station balance, ensuring smooth transaction submission.
This feature not only breaks on-chain resource barriers but also delivers a seamless, uninterrupted Web3 experience.
Currently, Gas Station supports 10 major EVM networks, including Ethereum, BNB Smart Chain, Base, Arbitrum, Avalanche, Polygon, Optimism, Linea, GateChain EVM, and Gate Layer.
For deposits, the feature supports over 100 mainstream crypto assets such as GT, USDT, USDC, ETH, BNB, and more, enabling flexible Gas payments across chains and assets.
04 Participation Guide: How to Experience the Gas Station
To join the Gas Station campaign, users should follow these steps: First, click the "Join Now" button on the event page to register. Next, connect your wallet and go to Gate DEX to link your wallet. Finally, pre-deposit 5 to 100 USDT in the Gas Station.
App users experiencing language mismatch or wallet connection issues should upgrade to the latest version: Android 7.25.5, iOS 7.25.0.
The platform reminds participants to observe fairness: the number of wallets associated with a single IP will be strictly monitored. Abnormal multi-account behavior will be considered a violation, and registration eligibility will be restricted.
All airdrop rewards will be distributed within 14 business days after the event ends. If a user participates in multiple events during the same period, all USDT airdrops can be stacked.
The platform has also implemented a prize pool circuit breaker mechanism. Once the total budget is exhausted, eligible wallet devices meeting the requirements will no longer receive rewards.
05 Security Commitment: Gate’s Promise
The launch of the Gas Station marks an important step in Gate’s expansion of Web3 multi-chain infrastructure capabilities.
With over 12 years of industry experience and support from 48 million users, Gate remains focused on providing secure and reliable trading services for Bitcoin, Ethereum, and more than 4,300 cryptocurrencies.
Gate guarantees a 100% reserve policy, covering over 500 digital assets. User asset security is ensured through Merkle tree and zero-knowledge proof technologies, with total reserves exceeding $9.478 billion.
The platform offers 24/7 customer support. Users can contact Gate at any time via customer service channels. For inquiries, email support@gate.com.
With the Gas Station feature now widely available, a problem that once troubled Xiao Wang has been solved: during Ethereum network congestion, he no longer needs to buy ETH in a rush for Gas; when exploring new apps on Arbitrum, there’s no need to prepare specific Gas tokens for each network.
Gate Wallet’s update log shows that Web3 transactions are now integrated with the Gas Station, making operations easier and execution more reliable. This innovation is lowering the barrier for users in multi-chain environments and driving Web3 adoption toward everyday use.
For a Gas payment system that connects 10 major EVM networks and supports over 100 crypto assets, this is only the beginning.
