Come build the future of virtual worlds with us!

Web3 games have long been plagued by rough onboarding experiences and challenges in improving user acquisition, retention and conversion. That changes today.

Armed with the latest advancements in infrastructure technology, we’re thrilled to announce the Halliday Onboarding Suite and Halliday Growth Suite to remove friction points across Web3 Gaming, helping developers onboard and engage players across the customer life cycle — from signup to D365 retention and beyond.

Announcing the Halliday Onboarding Suite

We’re releasing the Halliday Onboarding Suite, powered by the Halliday Smart Contract Wallet. This is the ultimate gaming wallet, making bringing players to Web3 easier than ever, while also maintaining the industry’s founding principle of true player ownership. With the Halliday Smart Contract Wallet, we enable social login with account recovery, auto-signing sessions and gas sponsorship of player transactions.

The Halliday Smart Contract Wallet comes packaged with HalliPay, an extension of our Play Now, Pay Later product that now also supports Direct NFT Checkout. Direct NFT Checkout allows players to purchase NFTs upfront with a credit card. In conjunction with the Halliday Smart Contract Wallet, players will be able to fully experience a Web3 game without needing to know what the blockchain is.

Hello, Account Abstraction

All of this is made possible by Account Abstraction. The Halliday Smart Contract Wallet is built on top of ERC-4337, an exciting new development that has caught the attention of some of the most innovative builders in the ecosystem.

With Account Abstraction, we no longer need to choose between true ownership and user-friendly design. While the Halliday Smart Contract Wallet is fully non-custodial, we still offer the features that have traditionally been restricted to custodial wallets. Our goal is to bridge the best of custodial and noncustodial solutions into a new standard of ownership and access in Web3 games.

The Halliday Smart Contract Wallet is made even more powerful by our Growth Suite

We’ve built the Halliday Onboarding Suite to ensure true ownership can remain in the hands of players. With our Growth Suite, we empower players further, by allowing them to play with new NFTs before purchasing one for themselves. Together, Halliday’s tools serve to give games and players more flexibility than has ever been possible in Web3.

To build out our vision, we’re developing gaming-specific products such as NFT Trials and Subscriptions that will plug in directly alongside our Onboarding Suite. Imagine having access to the best growth tools of Web2 gaming and the latest innovations in Web3. That’s our first-of-its-kind Halliday Growth Suite. In the coming weeks, we’ll share more about the latest tech we’re introducing to bring new communities to our ecosystem.

This is just the beginning

Stay tuned later this week for even more exciting announcements. In the meantime, if you’re an interested developer, please get in touch with us at @HallidayHQ on Twitter or at partnerships@halliday.xyz. We love working with the best in the space.
