Account Kit

We provide the Account Kit as a way to accelerate on-chain integration for the TypeScript/JavaScript ecosystem. This SDK abstracts away the complexity of our multi-module Safe architecture, making it easier for developers to integrate with Gnosis Pay’s on-chain infrastructure directly. Installing instructions and comprehensive examples are available in the Account Kit repository. The SDK is open source and actively maintained by the Gnosis Pay team. All examples in this section of the documentation assume you are using the Account Kit SDK.

Direct Integration without Account Kit

For other programming languages, you can use their own cryptocurrency libraries (e.g., go-ethereum for Go, web3.py for Python, and so on) and integrate directly with the contracts. However, this approach requires additional steps since the Account Kit relies on TypeScript/JavaScript projects from Gnosis such as @gnosis.pm/safe-contracts, @gnosis.pm/zodiac, and related dependencies. Integrating directly means you’ll need to explore the Account Kit source code and its dependencies to understand:
  • Contract Function Calls: Which specific functions are being called on the Safe, Delay, Roles, and Bouncer modules
  • Payload Encoding: How transaction data is encoded and structured for each operation
  • Module Interactions: The sequence and coordination between different modules
  • Parameter Validation: What parameters are required and how they’re validated
This reverse-engineering approach is entirely doable for teams with strong smart contract integration experience, but it requires significant additional development time compared to using the Account Kit directly.
