How to Reduce Merchant Interchange Fees by 50%+ in 5 Minutes (Web3 Global Payments Made Easy)

Interchange fees are bleeding your business dry.

Traditional payment processors charge 2-4% per transaction. On $100,000 monthly volume, that's $2,800 monthly. $33,600 annually. Gone.

Web3 global payments flip this model completely.

You're about to cut those fees by 50% minimum. Some merchants hit 94% reductions. And it takes 5 minutes to set up.

The Real Cost of Traditional Payment Processing

Let's break down what you're actually paying:

Standard Interchange Structure:

• Base rate: 1.5-2.9%

• Processing fees: 0.3-0.5%

• Cross-border surcharges: 1-3%

• Currency conversion: 2-4%

• Chargeback fees: $15-100 per incident

• Monthly gateway fees: $10-50

• PCI compliance fees: $100-500 annually

Total effective rate? 3.5-7% for international transactions.

That's unsustainable for modern businesses.

How Web3 Payments Slash Costs

Web3 eliminates intermediaries entirely.

No issuing banks. No card networks. No acquiring banks. No payment processors taking cuts.

You pay only network gas fees.

On most blockchain networks:

• Solana: $0.001 per transaction

• Polygon: $0.01 per transaction

• Ethereum Layer 2: $0.10-0.50 per transaction

Fixed costs. Regardless of transaction size or geography.

A $100 payment costs the same as a $100,000 payment.

Technical Advantages That Matter

NFT Receipts for Accounting

Every transaction generates an immutable receipt stored on-chain.

Benefits for tax season:

• Automatic record-keeping

• Tamper-proof transaction history

• Instant audit trails

• IRS-compliant documentation

• Eliminates manual reconciliation

Your accountant will love you. The IRS can't dispute blockchain records.

LUSD Stablecoin Benefits

Larecoin's integration with Liquity's LUSD offers unique advantages:

• Decentralized stablecoin (no bank dependencies)

• Over-collateralized (110% minimum)

• No variable interest rates

• Redemption value always $1

• Zero governance risk

Traditional stablecoins like USDC can freeze accounts. LUSD can't.

Receivables Token System

Convert outstanding invoices into tradeable tokens.

How it works:

• Issue invoice as blockchain token

• Customer holds token until due date

• Token represents payment obligation

• Tradeable on secondary markets

• Instant liquidity for your receivables

This is revolutionary for cash flow management.

Global Payments Without the Headache

Traditional international payments cost 5-7% average.

SWIFT transfers take 3-5 business days. Currency conversion adds 2-4%. Banks extract fees at every step.

Web3 changes everything:

Send payments to 195 countries. Same fees. Same speed. Same simplicity.

A payment to Tokyo costs the same as a payment to Toronto. Gas fees only.

No correspondent banks. No conversion spreads. No geographic restrictions.

Your small business suddenly operates like a multinational corporation.

Annual savings: $30,000

She implemented it in one afternoon. Zero technical background required.

The Crypto POS System for Small Business

Physical retail? No problem.

Larecoin's crypto POS system integrates with existing hardware:

• iPad point-of-sale

• Android terminals

• Desktop software

• Mobile apps

Customers pay via:

• QR code scan

• NFC tap (compatible wallets)

• Manual address entry

Settlement happens instantly. No next-day batch processing. No merchant account holds.

You can pay suppliers the same day you receive payment.

Financial Sovereignty Matters More Than You Think

Banks can freeze accounts without warning. Payment processors can terminate relationships overnight.

Ask businesses in cannabis, firearms, adult entertainment, or cryptocurrency sectors.

Self-custody eliminates this risk entirely.

Your funds. Your wallet. Your private keys. No third-party can seize, freeze, or restrict your capital.

This isn't just about fees. It's about control.
