The gas provider for XRPL

Zero drops from your users.

Dropless carries every reserve and fee the XRP Ledger demands. Your users never acquire XRP. You settle once a month, in fiat.

Every fee, carried to zero.

The friction

The ledger asks a coin of everyone.

Every wallet, trust line and object on XRPL demands XRP held in reserve. For some that coin is a compliance problem; for others, a user they'll never see again.

For the institution

A coin the balance sheet can't carry.

Funds, custodians, banks and tokenization platforms can't hold a volatile L1 asset for clients. The ledger insists anyway.

  • XRP on the balance sheet: compliance rejects it
  • Funding each wallet by hand breaks operations at scale
  • Issuers and investors won't touch the token
  • Volatile gas cost makes budgeting impossible

For the builder

A step your user won't take.

You built the app. Then the ledger asked your user to fund their account. Most never do.

  • Drop-off at the “acquire XRP” step
  • No UX parity with gasless chains, until now
  • NFT and game objects multiply the reserve cost
  • Engineering time spent on XRP plumbing, not product

How it works

We carry the coin. You carry nothing.

Dropless is the paymaster for XRPL: infrastructure that sponsors reserves and fees on your behalf. Integrate once, choose what we carry, settle in fiat.

1

Integrate

Call the Dropless API and register the wallet addresses you want to sponsor.

POST /v1/sponsor
{
  "wallet": "r...",
  "mode": "pre-funded"
}
2

Elect

Choose what we carry: fees, reserves, or both. Pre-fund a budget with a per-transaction ceiling, or co-sign each one.

sponsor: {
  flags: ["fee", "reserve"],
  feeBudget: "25 XRP",
  maxFee: "20 drops"
}
3

Settle

One invoice at month's end, in USD ($RLUSD soon). Your users never touch XRP. Neither do you.

Invoice #0421
reserves    2,481.20 USD
fees           18.44 USD

total       2,499.64 USD

Sponsorship modes

Sponsor fees, reserves, or both.

Under XLS-68, Dropless covers the transaction fee, the object reserve, or both. Whether it co-signs each transaction or you pre-fund a budget is the flow below.

Sponsored fees

Cover the gas.

Dropless pays the transaction Fee, so the sender spends zero drops on any eligible operation.

SponsorFlags: spfSponsorFee

Sponsored reserves

Cover the lock-up.

Dropless bears the reserve for new accounts and objects, so your users never hold XRP.

SponsorFlags: spfSponsorReserve

Both

Cover everything.

Fees and reserves together: full account abstraction, with nothing left for the user to hold or spend.

The flow

From new wallet to zero-cost transaction.

First the wallet gets on the ledger. Then every transaction it makes is sponsored, in the mode you pick. Both modes work once it's active.

Stage 1 · Get on the ledger

Brand-new wallet

Not on the ledger yet. Its base reserve is sponsored the moment the account is created, via a Payment flagged tfSponsorCreatedAccount.

Payment · tfSponsorCreatedAccount
Already active

On the ledger with its base reserve. It skips straight to Stage 2.

Stage 2 · Sponsor every transaction

Pre-fundedBudget caps only

Fund once, then the wallet signs and relays its own transactions. Any tx type draws on it, bounded by FeeAmount, MaxFee and ReserveCount.

Dropless

Walletrelays

Co-signed Tx-type policy

Dropless stays in the path, co-signing and relaying each transaction, so it only ever sponsors the operations you allow.

XRPL

Either way, you settle one invoice a month, in USD ($RLUSD soon).

Two ways in

However you arrive, the relay is the same.

Some clients wire sponsorship into their product. Others configure it from a screen. Dropless offers both: one service, two front doors.

The API

Sponsorship, wired into your stack.

For the ones who build. REST and SDKs, so sponsorship becomes a step in your wallet-creation flow, invisible to the user, native to your product.

  • REST API with TypeScript and Python SDKs
  • Programmatic sponsorship policies per wallet
  • Webhooks for usage, caps and settlement
  • Built for wallets, dApps and embedded-wallet providers

The Desk

Sponsorship, without a line of code.

For the ones who operate. Paste a wallet, choose what to sponsor, set a per-user cap, watch usage in real time, pay the invoice.

  • No-code onboarding: paste, verify, activate
  • Presets by use case: MPT, Escrow, DEX, NFT
  • Per-user spend caps and treasury top-ups
  • Built for funds, tokenization platforms, custodians
