What's included

## Every plan runs the same engine

Pay-as-you-go runs the same infrastructure and developer platform as the largest enterprise deployments — included from your first transaction, not gated behind a contract.

### Webhooks

Approve or reject each sponsorship request in real time from your own server. Your business logic, our execution.

[

### Debugging suite

Full request logs in the dashboard and one-click Tenderly traces, so you can see exactly what went wrong.

### API key hardening

Lock keys to IP ranges and origins, and disable individual methods, so a leaked key is a non-event.

[

### Parallel transactions

Up to 100 concurrent operations per account with 2D nonces, so bursts never queue behind themselves.

[

### Integrations out of the box

All 22 documented smart account and signer integrations — Safe, Kernel, MetaMask Smart Accounts, passkeys, and more — use the same API, so growing into Enterprise never means re-platforming.

## Pricing questions

**What are credits?**

Every API call costs a fixed number of credits based on how heavy the operation is. Premium operations like sponsoring or submitting a user operation cost 500 credits; data and estimation calls cost between 1 and 300. Your plan includes a monthly credit allowance, and on Pay-as-you-go additional credits cost $1 per 100,000.

**How does the sponsorship surcharge work?**

When you sponsor gas on mainnet, Pimlico fronts the gas and bills you the actual cost plus a 10% surcharge. On testnets there is no surcharge. Enterprise plans get lower pre-negotiated rates.

**Can I settle gas by monthly invoice instead of per-operation?**

Yes. Boosted Sponsorships settle gas by monthly invoice instead of per-operation on-chain deduction — the billing model your finance team already expects — and make user operations 34–43% faster end to end. Access is granted on request, so talk to us.

**Do I need a credit card to start?**

Yes. Pay-as-you-go requires a card on file, with a default billing threshold of $1,000 per month. Your plan includes 10,000,000 credits per month before any usage charges apply.

**What happens if I hit my rate limit?**

Pay-as-you-go plans are limited to 5,000 requests per minute. If you need more, Enterprise plans have no rate limits, so talk to us.

**Which chains are supported?**

Pimlico is live on 100+ chains including Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon, and Gnosis, with new chains added continuously. If you are launching a chain, we partner directly.
