How to Supercharge Your Project with Polygon Village Grants and Vouchers

Note: Polygon Village was completely revamped in November 2023. Read about the relaunched Polygon Village 2.0, here.

Polygon DAO last month announced the launch of Polygon Village, a full-stack ecosystem for developers to build and grow their projects. The team is now ready to share more about how to apply for grants and vouchers.

The grants line is aimed at onboarding the next 1,000 projects to Polygon and is operated on a cash and voucher basis. Whether you are building for DeFi or NFTs, DAO or zero-knowledge proofs, tools or anything else, any project on Polygon can apply.

Welcome vouchers are for projects looking to spur higher adoption rates and benefit from the top-tiered Web3 service providers. Polygon Village is partnering with some of the best Web3 service providers across domains, hosting, infra support, audit service, listing, liquidity support, marketing, legal and much more.
