Problem
Users onboarding to decentralized applications (dApps) often face friction due to the need for specific tokens on particular chains, requiring them to use bridges or swaps. This complexity increases drop-off rates and hinders broader adoption of Web3 applications.
Solution
Glide provides a suite of APIs and SDKs that enable gasless, cross-chain transactions within dApps and wallets, allowing users to pay with their existing tokens regardless of the underlying network. By abstracting away the complexities of bridging and swapping, Glide simplifies the user experience and reduces the barriers to entry for new users. The platform supports deposits from various sources, including centralized exchanges and credit/debit cards, offering a comprehensive solution for wallet funding and onboarding.
Target Audience
Glide primarily targets Web3 developers building DeFi, NFT, and other dApps, as well as wallet providers seeking to streamline user onboarding and improve transaction conversion rates.
