# Gas Rebates

Gas fees can be a major challenge to both the adoption and user experience of a dApp. 

Users are required to hold chain-native tokens in order to interact with a dApp on any given blockchain. 

For instance, to send an Arbitrum transaction, one must have ETH to cover the associated gas fees. 

This necessitates that new users acquire these cryptocurrency tokens prior to using a dApp, introducing several multistep interactions before the user can even start trading on the dApp. 

\
Blitz Trade alleviates this with partial (now) or complete (in Blitz v2) gas abstraction.

In v1, Blitz Trade covers a portion of the gas fees users pay using their gas rebates from the network. 

This can be helpful in both growing and retaining a user base through a smooth onboarding and transaction process.

### How does it work?

<figure><img src="/files/JuKk2eOgh8hCBm8B93tL" alt=""><figcaption><p>Gas Rebates in Blitz Trade (v1)</p></figcaption></figure>

When a user opens a position on Blitz Trade, they receive a fixed amount of 0.002 ETH as gas rebates which can be claimed to their 1CT wallet in real-time.<br>

Since the average gas fees on the Arbitrum network oscillate between 0.002-0.004, a one-time top-up of the 1CT account is typically sufficient to fund gas for future trades.&#x20;
