# PlayBlock Gas Station (PBG)

***

### Overview

The PlayBlock Gas Station is a dedicated interface that enables users to continue interacting on-chain without purchasing or managing gas tokens.

While every new user receives an initial allocation of Playnance Gas Token (PBG), there are cases where this balance may be insufficient or not allocated correctly.

In such situations, the Gas Station provides a simple, manual recovery mechanism.

This design preserves a frictionless user experience while maintaining full on-chain execution and transparency.

***

### Initial Gas Allocation

Upon joining the Playnance ecosystem, users automatically receive an initial PBG balance.<br>

This allocation:

* Is sufficient for thousands of on-chain transactions
* Covers gameplay, rewards, missions, and platform interactions
* Requires no action from the user

Users are not required to purchase gas or manage gas mechanics at any stage.

***

### Manual Gas Claim Process

If a user runs out of PBG or did not receive gas initially, the process is not automatic.

Instead, users are guided by the support team to manually claim gas through a dedicated page.<br>

The process is as follows:

1. The user navigates to the PlayBlock Gas Station page
2. The user connects their wallet
3. The user clicks “Get Free PBG”
4. PBG tokens are credited immediately to the wallet

This manual flow ensures clarity, control, and proper monitoring of gas distribution.

***

### Support-Guided Flow

The gas claim process is supported operationally by the Playnance support team.

Support assists users by:

* Directing them to the correct Gas Station page
* Explaining the claim process
* Ensuring successful receipt of PBG

This approach prevents confusion while maintaining a smooth user experience.

***

### Why the Gas Station Matters

The PlayBlock Gas Station enables:

* Gasless onboarding for mainstream users
* Recovery from gas depletion without disruption
* Continuous on-chain execution
* A Web2-like experience powered by blockchain infrastructure<br>

Users focus on interaction and gameplay — PlayBlock handles execution.
