LareBlocks Layer 1 Secrets Revealed: How Enterprises Cut Interchange Fees by 50% (What Traditional Processors Don't Want You to Know)

The Hidden Tax You've Been Paying

Interchange fees are bleeding enterprises dry.

Traditional payment processors take 2.5% to 3.5% per transaction. On $10 million in annual revenue, that's $250,000+ vanishing into payment rails.

Visa and Mastercard want you to believe this is the cost of doing business.

They're wrong.

What Traditional Processors Hide From You

Here's the dirty secret: Traditional payment networks operate on infrastructure from the 1970s.

Banks charge you for:

• Network access fees

• Assessment fees

• Interchange fees

• Processing markups

• Cross-border fees

• Currency conversion spreads

Each layer adds cost. Each middleman takes their cut.

The result? You're paying 50x what the actual transaction costs.

Enter LareBlocks Layer 1

LareBlocks flips the script entirely.

Fixed sub-$0.01 per transaction. Period.

No percentage cuts. No scaling fees as your business grows. No surprise charges when networks get congested.

Process $100? Pay less than a penny. Process $100,000? Still pay less than a penny.

This is possible because LareBlocks operates as an independent Layer 1 blockchain.

Not built on Ethereum. Not dependent on Polygon. Not piggybacking on existing networks that charge gas fees.

Pure, native infrastructure designed for enterprise payments.

The 50% Fee Reduction (And How It Actually Works)

Let's break down the math.

Traditional Processor:

• $10,000 transaction

• 2.9% interchange fee

• $290 cost to you

LareBlocks:

• $10,000 transaction

• $0.01 fixed fee

• $0.01 cost to you

That's a 99.99% reduction on individual transactions.

But enterprises process thousands of transactions daily. Scale that across your entire payment volume.

Even when accounting for crypto conversion and settlement costs, you're looking at under 50% of traditional interchange fees.

Master/Sub-Wallet Architecture Changes Everything

Here's where it gets interesting for enterprises.

LareBlocks includes protocol-level master/sub-wallet management.

What does this mean?

Centralized Treasury Control: One master wallet governs all company transactions. Sub-wallets for departments, locations, or individual employees.

Real-Time Visibility: Track every payment across your organization instantly. No waiting for settlement reports.

Automated Reconciliation: Sub-wallet activity rolls up automatically. Your accounting team will love you.

Granular Permissions: Set spending limits, approval workflows, and access controls at the protocol level.

Traditional processors charge extra for these features. LareBlocks builds them into the base layer.

NFT Receipts: The Audit Trail That Can't Be Faked

Every LareBlocks transaction automatically mints an NFT receipt.

Not as a gimmick. As an immutable proof of payment.

Key Benefits:

• Permanent transaction record

• Cryptographically verified

• Impossible to alter or dispute

• Embedded metadata (timestamp, amount, parties)

• Instant audit trails for compliance

Try faking an NFT receipt. You can't.

This eliminates chargebacks, reduces fraud disputes, and streamlines financial audits.

Your CFO's nightmare scenarios just disappeared.

LUSD: Stability Without Volatility

Crypto payments face one major enterprise objection: price volatility.

Larecoin solves this with LUSD stablecoin.

Pegged 1:1 to USD. Maintains purchasing power. Operates on LareBlocks Layer 1.

Process payments in LUSD and you get:

• Fixed-fee benefits of crypto

• Stability of fiat currency

• Instant settlement

• No foreign exchange spreads

• Cross-border payments without correspondent banking fees

Accept payments in LARE or LUSD. Convert to fiat instantly with push-to-card services.

Or hold in stablecoin and maintain crypto treasury exposure without risk.

Independence From External Networks

This is crucial.

Remember when Ethereum gas fees hit $200 per transaction in 2021?

Enterprises using Ethereum-based payment processors absorbed those costs.

When Solana went down for 17 hours in 2022?

Businesses using Solana payment rails couldn't process transactions.

LareBlocks runs independently.

External network congestion doesn't affect your fees. Other blockchain outages don't halt your payments.

You're not dependent on shared infrastructure that serves millions of competing use cases.

LareBlocks exists solely for enterprise payment processing and the Larecoin ecosystem.

Push-To-Card: Crypto Benefits, Fiat Convenience

Accept crypto. Receive fiat. Instantly.

LareBlocks push-to-card services convert LARE or LUSD directly to your bank account or debit card.

Settlement Speed:

• Traditional processors: 2-5 business days

• LareBlocks: Minutes

Fee Structure:

• Traditional processors: 2.9% + batch fees + interchange

• LareBlocks: Sub-$0.01 + conversion spread

You get crypto payment advantages without holding crypto exposure.

Perfect for enterprises testing Web3 waters without diving in completely.

The Decentralization Advantage

Centralized payment processors can:

• Freeze your account

• Reverse transactions arbitrarily

• Change fee structures unilaterally

• Deny service based on business category

LareBlocks operates on decentralized infrastructure.

No single entity controls the network. No payment processor dictates terms.

Smart contracts execute automatically. Transactions finalize on-chain without intermediary approval.

This means:

• Censorship resistance

• Predictable fee structures

• Permissionless access

• No arbitrary account closures

You own your payment rails.

Real-World Cost Comparison

Let's run a realistic scenario.

Mid-size e-commerce company. $5 million monthly payment volume.

Traditional Processor (2.9% + $0.30):

• Monthly interchange fees: $145,000+

• Annual cost: $1,740,000

LareBlocks ($0.01 fixed + conversion):

• Monthly transaction fees: ~$50

• Conversion costs (estimated 0.5%): $25,000

• Monthly total: ~$25,050

• Annual cost: ~$300,600

Annual savings: $1,439,400

That's an 82% reduction in payment processing costs.

Even in conservative estimates, you're cutting fees by more than half.

What Competitors Won't Tell You

NOWPayments, CoinPayments, and similar crypto processors still charge percentage-based fees.

They're just replacing Visa rails with crypto rails while maintaining the same extractive fee models.

Lower than traditional processors? Sure.

But still percentage-based. Still scaling with transaction size.

LareBlocks breaks this paradigm entirely with fixed-fee architecture.

Implementation Is Simpler Than You Think

Integrating LareBlocks doesn't require ripping out existing infrastructure.

Quick Start:

• Connect via API in under 30 minutes

• Set up master/sub-wallet structure

• Configure push-to-card settlement

• Start accepting LARE and LUSD payments

Run parallel with existing processors during transition.

No downtime. No disruption to current operations.

Test with small transaction volumes before scaling.
