What is Refuel?​

Users going to a new ecosystem frequently encounter the issue of lacking the native token required for transaction fees. Their options are limited to attempting to bridge the native token from a different blockchain. However, they often find that such small amounts are not feasible to be sent to the new chain and that this is an additional step after realizing the need or lack of native tokens on the new chain. For this reason, we have launched Refuel. Refuel is an optional addition to any swap to a chain. It ensures the user has the native token required for subsequent transactions on the destination chain. Bungee Refuel integrates directly into the token bridging process, either via Bungee Auto or Bungee Manual. Simply toggle the Refuel option in the UI and receive the native token on the destination chain. Refuel

How does Refuel work?​

Refuel operates in two modes: On Bungee Manual, Refuel adds native tokens from the source chain to the destination chain, even if the native tokens are not the same. A small amount will be sent alongside the swap and delivered with the output token to the user. On Bungee Auto it is even more convenient. Here no additional requirements for native input on the source chain is needed. All that is needed is taken from the input. A small amount will be used to fulfill the output plus some native token on the destination chain for further transactions. Refuel operates without charging any protocol fees. The only amount that is deducted from the amount sent to the user is for the gas fees incurred on the destination chain.
