  • It would be helpful to include the relevant portions of your smart contract. I am also not sure what you mean with "automatically transfer"? Every change in Chain has to be triggered by a transaction, which always requires an external account as the sender.

Automatic transfers are not secure, you should opt in for an withdrawal method where users withdraw their money and pay for the gas.

You can start here to have an idea : https://solidity.readthedocs.io/en/v0.4.24/common-patterns.html#withdrawal-from-contracts .

I've been stugglin with this for a while too. I hope someone that knows much more than me can provide a better answer and examples, I just told you a few things I learnt so far.
