Rewardy Wallet and 1inch Collaborate to Simplify Multi-Chain DeFi Swaps with Native Token Gas Payments

Rewardy Wallet has announced a new integration with the 1inch Swap API, marking a significant step toward streamlining user experiences in decentralized finance (DeFi). The update, which went live on January 22, 2026, allows users to conduct token swaps across major blockchain networks directly within the app—while covering gas fees using Rewardy’s native RWD tokens instead of network-specific coins like ETH, BNB, or MATIC.

This feature addresses a longstanding usability hurdle in DeFi: the requirement to hold native tokens for gas payments. Leveraging Ethereum’s EIP-7702 standard and account abstraction, Rewardy Wallet enables users to bypass the need to pre-purchase gas tokens. Instead, they can complete transactions using RWD tokens, reducing friction and streamlining the trading process.

The integration brings the full power of the 1inch aggregation and routing protocol to Rewardy’s user base. By accessing liquidity across a range of decentralized exchanges, the 1inch API helps minimize slippage and ensures optimal swap paths. Supported chains include Ethereum, BNB Chain, Arbitrum, Base, and Optimism.

Jeon, CEO of Rewardy Wallet, emphasized that simplifying the gas fee mechanism is essential for wider DeFi adoption, particularly in fast-growing Asian markets. “Gas tokens remain one of the main barriers to making DeFi feel as seamless as traditional fintech apps,” he said, adding that the integration keeps the benefits of self-custody while eliminating common transaction roadblocks.

Sergej Kunz, co-founder of 1inch, echoed this sentiment, highlighting that intuitive and secure user experiences are key to bringing decentralized tools to the mainstream. “Wallets like Rewardy play a pivotal role in broadening DeFi’s appeal by focusing on usability without sacrificing performance,” he noted.

The collaboration aligns with both companies’ shared vision of making DeFi accessible to a broader audience by reducing complexity and enhancing the utility of multi-chain swaps.
