Smart Wallet
ZeroDev Smart Wallet is a smart-account-first embedded wallet for apps that need onboarding, signing, and transactions in one SDK. Users sign in with familiar login methods, then get a self-custodial web3 wallet they can use to interact onchain while your app gets a Wagmi-compatible wallet stack you can fully control.
How it works
Adding ZeroDev Wallet takes three steps. Use the hook-based SDK for a fully custom wallet experience, or drop in the prebuilt Wallet UI Kit when you want a ready-made login flow. See it in the live demo, or follow the quickstart to build it yourself.
- Authenticate — a user signs in with a passkey, social login, email OTP, or magic link.
- Provision — a self-custodial smart account is created for them instantly, with their keys secured in isolated hardware.
- Transact — your app sends gasless transactions and batched calls through standard Wagmi and viem APIs.
How we keep keys secure
Every wallet's private key is created and stored inside secure hardware — an isolated environment called a trusted execution environment, or TEE. When a user signs a message or transaction, signing happens inside that environment and only the signature leaves. The private key itself is never exposed to your app, to ZeroDev, or to anyone else.
That's what makes every wallet self-custodial: only the authenticated user can approve a signature, and users can export their wallet at any time to take full custody of their keys.
What you can build
Onboarding- Authenticate with passkeys, Google OAuth, email OTP, or magic links.
- Drop in the prebuilt Wallet UI Kit for a faster login integration with less code.
- Let users export their wallet at any time.
- Send transactions, batch multiple calls, and sign messages through the tooling you already use.
- Fund wallets across chains with a smart routing address, and extend accounts with Kernel's permissions and modules.
- Let ZeroDev handle session management for you.
Why ZeroDev Wallet
Most embedded wallets start with a signer and leave smart account infrastructure for you to assemble later. ZeroDev Wallet is built around the full account lifecycle, so you can build a bespoke, app-native onchain experience:
- Smart from the first transaction. Users get a smart account the moment they sign in — no separate upgrade step, no migrating from an EOA later.
- App-like, one-click flows. Sponsor gas and batch multiple onchain actions into a single tap, so users get flows that feel like a modern app instead of a string of wallet pop-ups, approvals, and gas prompts.
- One platform, not a stack to assemble. Wallet onboarding, smart accounts, gas sponsorship, and session management all live behind a single SDK — nothing to stitch together across a separate wallet provider, signer, bundler, and paymaster, and no two systems to keep in sync.
- Everything gets easier at once. One integration means unified billing, usage tracking, and maintenance, a single SDK and set of docs to learn, and one place to monitor what your users are doing.
- UX you fully control. You own every step — auth, signing, transacting, and permissions — so you can design experiences native to your product rather than handing users off to a generic wallet.
What's coming
ZeroDev Wallet combines the best of off-chain and on-chain infrastructure — secure hardware for key management and smart accounts for on-chain execution — which unlocks wallet features that are difficult or impossible with other solutions. We're building toward:
- Server Wallets — developer-controlled wallets that make it easy to manage your own wallets for operations and fleet management, with session keys on smart accounts so your backend can perform delegated transactions on a user's behalf.
- Hybrid on-chain / off-chain policy engine — pair off-chain rules with on-chain enforcement for fine-grained control over spending and permissions.
- Resource-lock chain abstraction — let users spend a single balance across chains without bridging or holding gas on each network.
- An expanded UI Kit — more prebuilt, data-driven components, including portfolio management, transaction history, chain-abstracted balances, and more.

ZeroDev SDK vs ZeroDev Wallet
ZeroDev Wallet is built on ZeroDev's own smart account SDK. The signer, smart accounts, gas sponsorship, and everything in between come first-party from a single vendor.
That means you don't have to sign up for, pay for, and integrate a separate third-party signer or wallet provider just to onboard users — it's all one stack and one integration, maintained by the same team.
It also makes working with Kernel, our modular smart account, much easier: the wallet and the smart account share one SDK, so permissions, modules, and gas sponsorship work together out of the box instead of being wired across separate vendors.
Pricing
ZeroDev Wallet is included in every ZeroDev plan. It draws from your existing credit allotment — there's no separate subscription.
| Action | Credits |
|---|---|
| Signature — off-chain (personal sign, typed data, etc.) | 10 |
| Sending a transaction (user operation) | 20 |
| Sign and send a transaction | 30 |
- Free plans: if you run out of credits, signing pauses until your credits refresh the following month. Your users can always export their keys to keep full control of their wallets.
- Paid plans: you keep signing and transacting past your allotment and are billed for overage credits.
- Rate limits: default per-user rate limits protect against spam draining your credits. They're flexible — contact us to adjust them for your app.
