Base Builder Grant Program (Season 2)

Who qualifies

• Teams actively building on Base, from live products to new consumer apps
• Season 2 focus areas: prediction markets, token launchpads, DeFi 2.0 (lending, looping, yield, vaults, tokenized equities), agents, new-asset products and consumer apps driving transactions

What you need

• Builder Codes integrated into your app
• A live product on Base
• Mentioned on the official page; exact requirements may vary.

Typical approval time

• Base reviews applications on a rolling basis; no decision date is published.

Step by step

1. Read the builders page on Base's docs and confirm your project fits one of the Season 2 focus areas.
2. Integrate Builder Codes first. Base says this is the first step to being eligible for grants.
3. Fill in the application form linked from that page to be considered for the next cohort.
4. If accepted, you get up to $5,000 in grants plus GTM support and access to the Builder Stack of tool and credit partners.

Common rejection reasons

• Not stated on the official page — check the claim page.

Tips & fine print

• Base grants selectively and funds at its own discretion, so a working product beats a pitch.
• The Builder Stack, which spans LLM inference, cloud and dev infrastructure credits, unlocks once you are accepted.
