How the 1.5% Transaction Tax Makes You a Social Impact Hero (While Cutting Your Payment Fees)

You're already paying payment processing fees. Might as well feed hungry kids while you're at it.

Every transaction on Larecoin includes a 1.5% fee. But here's the thing: traditional crypto processors charge 0.5-1% and pocket every penny. With Larecoin, that extra percentage goes straight to global hunger relief. Same cost to you. Different outcome for the world.

Let's break down how this actually works and why it's not just good karma: it's good business.

The Math That Actually Makes Sense

Traditional payment processors charge fees. Crypto processors charge fees. Credit cards charge fees. You're never escaping fees.

Here's what you're typically looking at:

Traditional Crypto Processors:

• 0.5% to 1% transaction fee

• All revenue stays with the processor

• Zero social impact

• Standard service

Larecoin:

• 1.5% transaction fee

• Extra percentage funds global charities

• Automatic charitable contribution

• Same processing speed

The difference? You're paying a competitive rate while simultaneously funding nutrition programs, food distribution, and agricultural infrastructure in developing regions.

Not charity theater. Real impact, embedded in the blockchain itself.

Why Customers Actually Care

"People want to buy from companies that do good."

It's not marketing fluff anymore. It's consumer behavior backed by data.

When your checkout process automatically contributes to hunger relief, customers notice. They remember. They come back.

The Psychological Edge:

• Guilt-free purchasing

• Feel-good factor without extra steps

• Transparent impact tracking

• Shareable social proof

You're not asking customers to round up or make separate donations. It's built into the infrastructure. Every transaction. Every time. No decision fatigue.

This matters more in 2026 than ever before. Gen Z and Millennials control massive purchasing power: and they research who they buy from.

The Business Case Beyond Goodwill

Sure, positive vibes are nice. But let's talk real business advantages.

Tax Deductions: The charitable contribution component may qualify for tax deductions. That 1.5% isn't just goodwill: it's potentially tax-advantaged.

(Consult your tax professional. We're not accountants. But the structure exists for this benefit.)

Marketing Differentiation: Every competitor accepts payments. How many automatically fund global hunger relief?

Your checkout page becomes a value statement. Your receipts tell a story. Your brand positioning shifts from "we accept crypto" to "we're solving global problems."

Customer Retention: Customers who align with your values stick around longer. Higher lifetime value. Lower acquisition costs. Better margins over time.

The 1.5% pays for itself through retention and word-of-mouth alone.

How It Compares to NOWPayments and CoinPayments

Let's get specific about the competition.

NOWPayments:

• 0.5% fee for most transactions

• Standard payment processing

• No built-in charity mechanism

• You keep the full payment minus fees

CoinPayments:

• 0.5% transaction fee

• Multi-currency support

• Traditional payment model

• No social impact component

Larecoin:

• 1.5% total fee

• Additional percentage funds charities

• Same processing speed

• Built-in marketing advantage

• Potential tax benefits

• Customer goodwill multiplier

The extra 0.5-1% you're paying compared to competitors doesn't disappear into corporate profits. It goes directly to verified charitable programs with transparent blockchain tracking.

That's the difference between paying fees and making impact.

Real-World Impact You Can Track

This isn't vague "we support causes" nonsense.

Larecoin's 1.5% transaction tax funds specific programs:

• Food distribution networks in underserved regions

• Nutrition programs for children

• Agricultural infrastructure development

• Sustainable farming initiatives

Every transaction gets recorded on the blockchain. Full transparency. No middlemen. No administrative overhead eating the donation.

You can literally track where your transaction fees go. Show your customers. Include it in your impact reports. Build it into your brand story.

The Marketing Writes Itself

"1.5% of every purchase feeds hungry children."

That's your homepage headline. Your email signature. Your social media bio.

Customers share impact stories. Press picks up the angle. Competitors can't match the positioning.

You're not just another business accepting crypto. You're a business that embedded social good into your payment infrastructure.

That difference matters.

The charitable component isn't bolt-on virtue signaling. It's architecture-level purpose. And customers can feel the difference.

Making the Switch

Current payment processor costing you 2-3% on credit cards? Crypto processor charging 1% with zero added value?

Run the numbers on Larecoin.

Calculate Your Impact:

• Monthly transaction volume × 1.5%
