Fund your Pearl agent with a single transfer

Funding an agent on Pearl now takes one transfer from a wallet you already use. There's no need to hold the right token on the right chain first.

Until now, getting an agent ready meant working out which tokens it needed on which chain, swapping and bridging funds yourself in other apps, buying a token just to pay network fees, then sending each token in a separate transaction. Each extra step added time, fees and room for mistakes.

The new funding flow is designed so that you can:

Send what you already hold

• Pick the chain and token you have. Pearl accepts deposits on:
  • Ethereum, Base, Optimism and Arbitrum: ETH or USDC
  • Polygon: POL or USDC
  • Gnosis: xDAI
  • Robinhood Chain: ETH
• The chain you send from doesn't need to match the chain your agent runs on. For example, USDC on Base can fund a Polystrat agent on Polygon.

One amount, one address

• Pearl shows the amount of funds to send to get your agent started, and the address to send them to. The amount is calculated to cover the funds your agent works with and the token for network fees, minus what's already in your Pearl Wallet, so you don't have to work out which tokens to buy or where.
• Sent less than the amount shown? Pearl shows what arrived and what's left. Send the rest to the same address.
• Before sending, check that your wallet is on the chain shown in Pearl.

Follow every step

• Once your deposit arrives, Pearl is designed to bridge and swap the funds and move them into your Pearl Wallet, with no further action from you.
• Each step appears as it happens, with a link to the transaction.

Top-ups work the same way

Select Deposit in the Pearl Wallet, enter how much of each token you want, then pay from any supported chain and token.

Don't see your chain or token?

Choose "Other chain" or "Other token" and tell Pearl which one you'd like to see listed.
