Crypto Onboarding Is Broken: Avail Deposits Solves What Bridges Can't

You check your analytics. The traffic is there, but the deposits aren't. The leak starts to become obvious… your users are dropping off, because they have to bridge their assets before using your app. 

It's not a product problem, it's crypto's broken onboarding problem.

The Bridge Step: Crypto’s Silent Growth Killer

For every 10 users with assets on another chain, how many will never complete a transaction?

Each barrier, whether it’s network switching, gas token acquisition, or bridge research, is a step where users silently disappear.

Developers don’t have it much easier either. After building a great product, they have to build and maintain integrations across multiple blockchains which eats up precious developer time and still results in a fragmented user experience.

Why Traditional Bridges Aren’t The Answer

Bridges are infrastructure, yet your app provides some experience. Asking users to context-switch from your product to managing infrastructure is a fundamental failure in today’s crypto onboarding process. 

Bridges are designed to move assets between chains, your job however is to move user’s assets into your app. What you need is a comprehensive, crypto onboarding solution.

Introducing Avail Deposits: The Fastest Way To Onboard Users

With one click from your app's UI, a user's assets from multiple chains are deposited directly into your smart contract, with gas paid.

It works by aggregating, bridging, and swapping assets across chains in a single, gas-abstracted transaction. Users see deposits in seconds and the solvers, the actors who front funds for users, settle later.

With Avail deposits, users can deposit directly into smart contracts with a single transaction and

  • Place a trade on a DEX
  • Become an LP
  • Lend or borrow assets
  • Take a position on a prediction market
  • and more…

Avail Deposits, isn’t a bridge, it’s cross-chain deposit infrastructure that onboards users from any blockchain into your app. Fast. 

Faster Onboarding With Multi-Source Inputs

Let’s say a user has ETH on Arbitrum and USDC on Polygon. With Avail Deposits they can fund a single LP position on your Base-based DEX without leaving your app.

Normally this would require multiple workflows to get two different assets on two different chains into your app. With Avail Deposits, bridging, transfers and cross-chain swaps are all handled automatically, enabling users to do it in one seamless transaction flow.

Avail Deposits is the only solution with multi-source inputs today. This means larger initial deposits, higher conversion rates, and a market leading user experience.

Integrate In Minutes, Not Months

Today Avail Deposits integrates with 14 blockchains and is adding new chains all the time. 

The integration is simple. You can try it out for yourself by implementing the pluggable UI widget directly into your app. You don’t need to manage chain configurations, gas logic, retries and errors. All of that has already been done. 

If you need more flexibility then you can also use the SDK.

Your Pluggable Growth Engine

Avail Deposits doesn’t just make it easier to onboard new users, it instantly boosts your Total Addressable Market from the users on your host chain to all the users across 14+ blockchains.
