How Larecoin Cuts Merchant Interchange Fees by 50%+ While Fighting Global Hunger (Yes, Really)

Two Problems. One Solution.

Merchants lose billions to interchange fees every year. Millions go hungry globally every day.

Larecoin solves both.

Not through charity theater or feel-good marketing. Through actual blockchain infrastructure that rewrites payment economics while funding real impact.

Here's how it works.

The Interchange Fee Scam

Traditional payment processors charge 2.9% + $0.30 per transaction. Sometimes more.

Visa, Mastercard, and legacy gateways take their cut. Banks take their cut. Payment processors take their cut.

A $1,000 sale? You pay $29.30 in fees.

Scale that to $100K monthly volume. That's $35,160 annually in fees.

At $1M monthly? You're bleeding $350,400 per year.

Even "crypto-friendly" processors like NOWPayments (0.5-1%) and CoinPayments (0.5%) still charge percentage-based fees. Better than legacy. Still expensive at scale.

Larecoin operates differently.

Gas-Only Fee Model = Game Over for Interchange

Larecoin doesn't take percentage cuts. Zero. Nada.

Transactions run on blockchain infrastructure. The only cost? Gas fees for computational processing.

Current gas fees on Solana and Binance Smart Chain: $0.0002 to $0.15 per transaction.

That same $1,000 sale? Costs you $0.15 maximum. Usually closer to $0.02.

That's a 99.5% reduction.

Here's what it looks like at scale:

Real Savings Breakdown

$10K Monthly Volume:

• Traditional fees: $3,480/year

• Larecoin gas fees: $600/year

• Savings: $2,880 (83% reduction)

$100K Monthly Volume:

• Traditional fees: $35,160/year

• Larecoin gas fees: $1,800/year

• Savings: $33,360 (95% reduction)

$1M Monthly Volume:

• Traditional fees: $350,400/year

• Larecoin gas fees: $18,000/year

• Savings: $332,400 (95% reduction)

The math is brutal. For legacy processors, not for you.

But Wait, There's a Social Impact Twist

Every Larecoin transaction includes a 1.5% tax. Not going to corporate profits or shareholder dividends.

Going directly to fight global hunger.

This is the Social Impact Engine. Built into protocol-level infrastructure. Not optional. Not negotiable. Automatic.

Every merchant accepting LARE or LUSD contributes 1.5% of transaction value to verified hunger-relief organizations. Transparent. Trackable. Immutable on-chain.

You're already saving 50-95% on fees. That 1.5% tax? Still leaves you ahead by 48-94%.

You make more profit while funding real-world impact.

No other payment processor offers this combination. None.

The Infrastructure That Makes It Possible

This isn't vaporware or whitepaper fantasy. Larecoin runs on live Layer 1 infrastructure.

LareBlocks Layer 1

Custom blockchain optimized for payment velocity. Processes transactions in seconds. Scales to millions of transactions daily.

No network congestion. No failed payments during peak periods.

LareScan Explorer

Full transparency into every transaction. Real-time tracking. Complete audit trail.

Merchants see exactly where funds go. Customers verify social impact contributions. Accountants access immutable records.

LUSD Stablecoin Integration

Volatility kills crypto adoption for merchants. Solved.

Transactions process in LUSD: Larecoin's stablecoin pegged 1:1 to USD. Customers pay in LARE or LUSD. Merchants receive stable value.

Zero volatility exposure. Zero price risk.

You get all the fee savings of crypto without the headache of price fluctuations.

NFT Receipts = Tax & Accounting Nirvana

Every Larecoin transaction generates an NFT receipt. Minted on-chain. Permanently stored.

These aren't collectible JPEGs. They're immutable financial records.

Each NFT receipt contains:

• Transaction amount

• Timestamp

• Merchant details

• Customer wallet address

• Social impact contribution proof

• Tax-relevant metadata

Come audit season? Export your NFT receipt history. Done.

No shoebox full of paper receipts. No reconciling statements. No missing records.

Accountants love it. Tax authorities accept it. You save hours of administrative hell.

How Larecoin Stacks Up Against Competitors

Let's compare apples to apples.

NOWPayments

• Fees: 0.5-1% per transaction

• Social impact: None

• Settlement: 2-3 business days

• Custody: Custodial (they hold your funds)

Verdict: Better than legacy. Still extractive at scale.

CoinPayments

• Fees: 0.5% per transaction

• Social impact: None

• Settlement: Variable, up to 48 hours

• Custody: Custodial

Verdict: Competitive pricing. No differentiation beyond payment processing.

Larecoin

• Fees: Gas only ($0.0002-$0.15)

• Social impact: 1.5% funds global hunger relief

• Settlement: Instant (seconds)

• Custody: Non-custodial (you control your funds)

Verdict: 50-95% cheaper. Built-in social impact. Full self-custody.**

The comparison isn't close. Larecoin operates in a different economic model entirely.
