Gas Station
A single gas balance that pays network fees, so addresses work from the first second, with no activation or prefunding.
Normally, a freshly created address can't send a single cent until it receives native gas: TRX, ETH, or BNB. Gas Station removes this step: you top up one balance, and every address works from the first second. There's no need to manage gas on each address.
One balance instead of gas on every address
You top up a single Gas Station balance, in the native coin or plain USDT, and the fee for any operation is paid from it. A new address needs no activation or prefunding: it's ready to send right after it's created.
This changes how you work: you can create addresses freely, per client or per request (see Vaults and derivation), without worrying whether they "have enough gas."
How it works on different networks
The mechanism depends on the network, but the result is the same: the address doesn't hold its own gas:
| Network | Mechanism | Result |
|---|---|---|
| TRON | energy/bandwidth delegation for the operation | the address doesn't hold its own gas |
| EVM (Ethereum, BNB Chain…) | sponsorship through a relayer | the sponsor pays the fee, not the address |
Privacy
Because addresses aren't topped up with gas from your hot wallet, no on-chain trail of self-funding is left behind: there's no visible link showing who sent gas to whom. Fees go through the station's shared infrastructure, not through direct transfers between your addresses.
Transparent to your integration
There's no separate gas step in the API. When you send a transfer, the fee is covered automatically; you don't calculate or attach gas manually.
Gas Station is a platform mechanism, not an endpoint you call for every operation. On the integration side, all you need to do is keep the station balance funded; everything else happens under the hood.
On the integration side, you don't need to:
- top up new addresses with gas before their first operation;
- hold the native coin on every address;
- calculate and attach a fee to each transfer.
What you get
- No address activation: addresses work from the first second.
- Freedom to create addresses: per client or per request, without thinking about gas.
- Privacy: no self-funding trail.
- Transparent integration: gas is covered automatically, with no gas-related calls.
Tracking and top-ups
Gas consumption is tracked, so you can see it broken down by network, client, and wallet as part of your overall volume picture. To keep the station from running dry, monitor its balance: you can track a low balance and set up automatic top-ups.
