- Trust Wallet enables Ethereum swaps without gas using built-in gas sponsorship support.
- Users can swap tokens without holding ETH, lowering friction for everyday Ethereum usage.
Trust Wallet officially introduced a gas-free Ethereum swap feature through the gas sponsorship mechanism, now active within its app. This directly addresses a classic problem on the Ethereum network: the need to hold ETH just to pay for gas when performing swaps.
With this new scheme, gas fees are automatically covered as long as the transaction meets certain requirements, allowing users to swap tokens without leaving any ETH in their wallets.
Gas sponsorship is built directly into the swap process, letting users trade without changing any settings. When a user confirms a swap, the system determines if it qualifies and absorbs the gas cost accordingly. It speeds up the overall experience, but the feature continues to operate with daily usage limits and a minimum swap amount.

Trust Wallet Cuts Ethereum Swap Friction With Gas Sponsorship
Ethereum is widely known for its volatile gas fees, often making it difficult for retail users. With gas sponsorship now in place, that hurdle becomes far less of an issue. Users are able to swap assets on the spot without thinking about extra fees they need to prepare beforehand.
Furthermore, this approach also reduces the risk of transactions being held up simply due to insufficient gas balance, a situation often experienced by new users.
Not only that, this feature didn’t appear out of the blue. Similar schemes have previously been implemented on other networks, and now it’s being expanded to Ethereum with a focus on a smoother swap experience. This approach demonstrates a consistent development direction, namely eliminating the technical friction that often makes on-chain activities cumbersome.
However, this gas sponsorship remains focused on swaps, while expansion to new token transfers has been mentioned as a future plan.
On December 12, we highlighted how Revolut and Trust Wallet enabled instant crypto purchases with direct self-custody in the European Union. Purchased assets are immediately deposited into the user’s wallet, giving them full control from the outset without any additional intermediaries.
Earlier in December, we also reported on the introduction of the Predictions feature within the app, which opens access to event-based trading for sports, politics, and crypto. This feature provides a new space for users to interact with the market differently, all within the same app.
A few months earlier, on September 25, we reported on Trust Wallet’s integration with Aster DEX, which enabled perpetual trading with up to 100x leverage across over 100 markets. Multi-chain support, hidden orders, and advanced trading tools expanded the options for global users seeking a fully featured decentralized trading experience.
