  title: Alchemy Gas Manager Paymaster Token Metadata API
  description: The Alchemy Gas Manager API enables developers to sponsor gas fees for end users via the ERC-4337 Account Abstraction standard. Using a Gas Manager policy, developers can define rules for which transactions to sponsor, covering ETH gas fees so users never need to hold native tokens to interact with dApps. Supports gasless transactions, ERC-20 gas payments, and policy-based sponsorship controls.
