 You can choose from a variety of paymaster services available in the ecosystem. In this guide, we'll be configuring the Pimlico's ERC-20 Paymaster. However, it's important to note that paymaster support is not limited to the Pimlico, giving you the flexibility to integrate any compatible paymaster service that suits your requirements.
 
-To configure the ERC-20 Paymaster, you need to pass the `token` in the `paymasterContext` which allows you to specify the ERC-20 token that will be used to pay for the transaction. For this guide, we'll use the USDC token. [Find the USDC token address for your desired network](https://developers.circle.com/stablecoins/docs/usdc-on-test-networks).
