Gasless Transfers
Sending USDC normally requires holding the network's gas token (ETH on Arbitrum or Base) just to pay the fee. FurlPay removes that: you sign, FurlPay's sponsor submits and pays the gas.
How it works
USDC supports transferWithAuthorization (EIP-3009): instead of submitting a transaction yourself, you sign an authorization — a message saying "move N USDC from me to them, once, before this deadline." FurlPay's fee payer submits that authorization on-chain and pays the gas. The signature is single-use (a nonce burns with it), amount-exact, and recipient-exact — the sponsor cannot alter or reuse it.
What this means for you
- You can hold only USDC and still send it — no topping up ETH first.
- The quoted amount is what leaves your balance; the network fee is the sponsor's problem.
- Your key signs a message, not a transaction — the same fingerprint confirmation as any other send.
Supported networks
Gasless sending works on the EVM networks where FurlPay runs a sponsor, Arbitrum first. The send screen shows a "no network fee" label when the rail applies; on networks without a sponsor, the standard flow applies instead.
Rate limits protect the sponsor
Developers can read the protocol-level docs at Agentic Payments (x402) — the same EIP-3009 mechanism powers pay-per-call for AI agents.
