Biconomy
Scalable Relayer Infrastructure for Blockchain Transactions.
Introduction
Biconomy is a scalable transaction relayer infrastructure, which can pay blockchain transaction's gas fee for your dApp user, while collecting fees from you on monthly basis, in form of some stable token.
Meta Transactions can be crafted in any of following two ways.
Contract based Accounts
In this approach, for each user an upgradable contract wallet is created, which acts as a proxy contract & relays all transactions to destination smart contract. As user needs to keep all of their assets under supervision of this proxy contract, all blockchain transactions to be routed via this proxy contract.

Native Meta Transactions
If dApps support native meta transactions, then biconomy relayers can directly talk to dApp contract, where we don't need any user specific contract wallet.

Integration
Biconomy offers their SDK that makes this integration seamless, called Mexa.
Integration with Mexa is a two step process:
- Register your DApp on Mexa Dashboard, a dashboard for developers, and copy API Key generated for your DApp.
- Integrate Mexa SDK in your DApp code using API Key you got from dashboard.
You will first need your deployed smart contract address and it's ABI to register on the dashboard.
Dashboard
Follow the steps here, to register an account and add a DApp to get the keys, and configure functions that will accept signed transactions.
Using mexa
Get inside dApp client code directory, to configure meta transactions. Lets first install @biconomy/mexa
from npm.
Now we can initialize biconomy & web3. In place of <web3 provider>
you can use window.ethereum
if your dApp users are using MetaMask.
Congratulations 👏
You have now enabled meta transactions in your DApp. Interact with web3 the way you have been doing it.
Now whenever there is a write transaction action(registered in mexa dashboard also) initiated from the user, mexa will ask for user’s signature in an EIP-712 format and handle the transaction rather than sending signed transaction directly to blockchain from user’s wallet.
