If you’ve ever run into the issue of not having enough “gas” (ETH) to complete a transaction, you know how frustrating it can be.
Running out of gas can stop you from making swaps, and getting more ETH to cover the network fees can be a real hassle. You usually have to buy ETH from an exchange and send it to your wallet, which can take a long time. But now, with MetaMask’s Gas Station, that’s no longer a problem.
MetaMask’s Gas Station: Hassle-Free Swaps with Included Gas Fees
This feature includes gas fees in your swap quotes, so you won’t have to worry about running out of gas. When you enable smart transactions with MetaMask Swaps, the Gas Station ensures that your network fees are included in the swap price. This makes the whole process much smoother and quicker.
MetaMask will still compare prices from a wide range of providers. According to this blog post , this includes decentralized exchange (DEX) aggregators, market makers, and DEXs. This ensures that you’ll always get the best deal with the lowest network fees. This way, you can save time and money.
No ETH for gas? Not a problem anymore. ⛽️
You can now swap tokens in MetaMask without requiring ETH.
