Gem Wallet has supported BNB Chain NFTs since November 29, 2025. Your collection opens in the same app that holds your BNB and other tokens - viewing it or sending an item to a friend takes a couple of taps and almost no fee.
What Are BNB Chain NFTs?
NFT stands for non-fungible token: a unique record in a smart contract that cannot be split or swapped for an identical one. BNB Chain is one of the cheapest places to keep them: as of August 2026, the network runs 2.88 million active addresses a day, fees of about $0.0037 per transaction, and 650-millisecond finality.
Cheap transactions gave the network very large collections. Here is what BNB Chain collectors hold:
MOMO by MOBOX: The most traded NFT series on the network - over a million sales and more than $700 million in cumulative volume.
Pancake Squad and Pancake Bunnies: Collectible avatars from the PancakeSwap ecosystem, among the most recognizable on BNB Chain.
Blockchain gaming items: Characters, skins, and in-game resources that belong to the player, not to the developer.
.bnb names from Space ID: A short name that replaces a 42-character address is issued as an NFT too.
All of it is built on the BEP721 and BEP1155 standards and trades on Element, OKX NFT Marketplace, and other venues on the network. BEP721 describes a single item, while BEP1155 holds thousands of identical consumables in one contract and moves them in a batch - which is why games pick it.
Benefits for Gem Wallet Users With BNB Chain NFT Support
Gem Wallet is a secure and private NFT Wallet for BNB Chain: a mobile app for iOS and Android with fully open-source code, no registration, and no middleman between you and your collection. Here are the main benefits of the wallet.
Full Self-Custody: The private keys to your BNB Chain address are created on your phone and stay there, not on someone else’s server. As long as you hold the secret phrase, no exchange and no custodian can move a single item.
Fully Open-Source Code: Gem Wallet’s source code is published on GitHub, and the app passed a CertiK audit in April 2026. You can read the NFT logic line by line.
Privacy by Default: Gem Wallet does not ask for an email, a phone number, or an ID - not at setup, and not at your first NFT transfer.
Your Whole Collection in the Collections Tab: Gem Wallet reads the metadata of every token and shows its image, name, and collection - both network standards, BEP721 and BEP1155, are supported. You can send an item to any BNB Chain address right from there, the same way you send BEP20 tokens in the same wallet.
WalletConnect for Marketplaces: Element, OKX, and other DApps on BNB Chain open from Gem Wallet over WalletConnect - connecting takes one QR scan.
Built-in DEX Aggregator: Swap BNB for USDT, BTC, ETH, and other assets through PancakeSwap and other DEX protocols - handy when the item you want is priced in something else.
Buy BNB: You can buy BNB with a credit card, Apple Pay, or Google Pay: Mercuryo, MoonPay, Paybis, and other providers work in 170+ countries.
Resources for Developers
Gem Wallet also supports NFTs on Ethereum, Solana, TON, and more blockchains - with new networks added regularly.
How to Get Your First NFT on BNB Chain
- Install Gem Wallet on iOS, Android, or via APK and open your BNB Wallet.
- Get an item to your address: buy one on Element over WalletConnect, or ask someone to send it to you directly.
- The item shows up in the Collections tab on its own - keep it there or send it to anyone with the Send button.
Conclusion
NFTs on BNB Chain are mostly gaming items and large collections that you want close at hand, not scattered across websites. Now they sit in your phone next to your coins and open any time.
Install Gem Wallet and keep your BNB Chain collection where the rest of your assets are - in a secure app where the keys belong only to you.
