How to Pay Gas Fees on Trust Wallet1. Understand Gas Fees

Gas fees are transaction fees on the Ethereum blockchain. They are paid to compensate miners for validating and processing transactions. Gas fees can vary depending on network congestion and transaction type.

Before sending a transaction, check the current gas prices. Trust Wallet provides a live gas price tracker. Choose between "Fast," "Regular," and "Slow" modes based on your transaction urgency and willingness to pay higher fees.

BNB is the cryptocurrency used to pay gas fees on Trust Wallet. Ensure you have sufficient BNB in your wallet before initiating a transaction.

4. Choose Ecosystem

Select the blockchain network on which you want to send the transaction. Trust Wallet supports Ethereum, BNB Smart Chain, and Polygon, among others. Each network has its own gas token.

Customize the gas limit and gas price to control how much you spend on gas fees. Higher gas limits and gas prices increase the likelihood of faster transactions, but they also result in higher fees.

6. Initiate Transaction

Enter the recipient's address and the amount you want to transfer. Review the transaction details, including the estimated gas fee, and confirm the transaction.

7. Complete Payment

Approve the payment using your private key or Face ID/Touch ID. Trust Wallet handles the conversion of BNB to the appropriate gas token and pays the gas fee automatically.
