Metaverse Shopping Is Here: How Larecoin's VR/AR B2B2C Platform Beats Traditional Crypto Payment Gateways

The metaverse isn't coming. It's already here.

And it's changing how we shop, pay, and do business online.

Traditional crypto payment gateways treat payments as isolated transactions. They're stuck in Web2 thinking. Larecoin's B2B2C metaverse platform combines immersive VR/AR commerce with blockchain payments in a single integrated ecosystem.

Let's break down why that matters: and how it crushes the competition.

The Traditional Gateway Problem

NOWPayments. CoinPayments. Triple-A. They all follow the same tired playbook.

Percentage-based fees. Every transaction costs you 0.5% to 1%+ of the sale. Add up thousands of transactions. Those fees destroy your margins.

No shopping experience. They process payments. That's it. You still need separate platforms for catalogs, customer engagement, and checkout flows.

Zero innovation. Basic QR codes. Email receipts. The same features from five years ago.

No custody control. Your funds sit in their wallets. You wait for withdrawals. You trust third parties with your money.

Traditional gateways built payments for the old internet. Larecoin built payments for the metaverse.

Gas-Only Transfers: Real Fee Savings

Here's where Larecoin separates itself from the pack.

No percentage fees. Zero. You pay only blockchain gas fees for transfers. That's it.

NOWPayments charges 0.5% minimum. CoinPayments takes up to 0.5%. Triple-A costs 1%+.

Do the math. A $100,000 monthly payment volume costs:

• NOWPayments: $500+ in fees

• CoinPayments: $500+ in fees

• Triple-A: $1,000+ in fees

• Larecoin: $20-50 in gas fees

Fee savings exceeding 50% become fee savings exceeding 95% at scale.

That's not incremental improvement. That's transformation.

NFT Receipts: Beyond Paper Trails

Every Larecoin transaction generates an NFT receipt.

Not a PDF. Not an email confirmation. A blockchain-verified proof of purchase.

Why NFT receipts matter:

• Immutable proof for returns and warranties

• Loyalty program integration without separate systems

• Resale verification for secondary markets

• Digital collectibles that build brand communities

• Unlockable content and exclusive access

Traditional gateways send emails. Larecoin creates permanent digital assets.

Your customers can trade receipts. Display them in virtual galleries. Use them to unlock VIP experiences.

The receipt becomes part of your brand story.

LUSD Stablecoin: Volatility Solved

Crypto volatility kills mainstream adoption. Merchants don't want Bitcoin swings.

Larecoin integrated LUSD stablecoin across the entire ecosystem.

Accept payments in:

• LARE tokens for crypto-native customers

• LUSD stablecoin for price stability

• Cross-chain assets through built-in swaps

Customers pay how they want. You receive stable value. No third-party conversions. No hidden spreads.

NOWPayments and CoinPayments force you to accept volatility or pay extra for instant conversions. Larecoin builds stablecoins into the core architecture.

Self-Custody: Your Keys, Your Crypto

Traditional payment processors hold your funds.

You trust them. You wait for withdrawals. You follow their rules.

Larecoin uses self-custody and master/sub-wallet architecture.

Merchants control:

• Private keys and wallet access

• Instant fund availability

• Master wallets for business accounts

• Sub-wallets for departments and locations

• Direct blockchain settlement

No intermediary holds your money. No withdrawal delays. No permission needed to access your own funds.

True decentralization. Real Web3 principles.

QR-Generated POS: Physical Meets Digital

Larecoin's crypto POS systems work everywhere.

Generate QR codes for:

• In-store purchases at checkout

• Online checkout flows

• VR/AR shopping experiences

• Pop-up events and marketplaces

One unified payment system. Physical stores. Digital storefronts. Virtual worlds.

Traditional processors need separate integrations for each channel. Larecoin provides omnichannel payments from day one.

Set up takes minutes. No specialized hardware required. Just smartphones and QR codes.

The Metaverse Shopping Experience

Here's where it gets interesting.

Most crypto processors think payments are enough. Larecoin built an entire shopping metaverse around those payments.

Social shopping capabilities:

• Group browsing sessions in VR with friends

• Live brand demonstrations and product launches

• Influencer-hosted events with exclusive drops

• Avatar-based product interaction and try-ons

• 3D visualization before purchase

Traditional e-commerce: browse alone, click add to cart, checkout.

Metaverse shopping: explore with friends, try products virtually, attend live events, complete purchases without leaving the experience.

The B2B2C model means merchants own customer relationships. You're not competing with the platform. You're empowered by it.

Revenue stays with merchants. Customer data belongs to brands. The platform serves: not exploits: business success.

VR/AR Commerce Is Live Now

Larecoin's QR-based POS systems are operational today.

LUSD integration? Live.

NFT receipt generation? Working now.

Coming through 2026:

• Full VR storefront SDKs

• AR visualization tools for product demos

• Enhanced social shopping features

• Cross-metaverse wallet portability

The infrastructure exists. The vision is executing. The future is building in real-time.

Federal Compliance & State Coverage

Innovation without regulation is chaos. Larecoin doesn't just build: we comply.

Regulatory standing:

• Federal MSB (Money Services Business) registration

• State-level MTL (Money Transmitter License) coverage across the U.S.

• KYC/AML protocols integrated into platform

• Transaction monitoring and reporting

See our trust page.

Most crypto startups ignore compliance until regulators force them. Larecoin built compliance into the foundation.

Legal operations. Transparent processes. Long-term sustainability.

Master/Sub-Wallet Architecture for Businesses

Enterprise merchants need sophisticated treasury management.

Larecoin's wallet system:

• Master wallets control overall business funds

• Sub-wallets for departments, locations, or campaigns

• Permission-based access controls

• Automated splitting and routing rules

• Real-time reconciliation across all accounts

NOWPayments and CoinPayments treat every merchant as a single entity. Larecoin recognizes businesses are complex organizations.

Franchise networks. Multi-location retailers. Global enterprises. Each needs granular control.

We built that from the ground up.

Why Merchants Switch to Larecoin

Fee savings. 50%+ reduction compared to traditional processors. Often 90%+ at high volumes.

NFT receipts. Customer engagement beyond transactions. Loyalty without third-party platforms.

Self-custody. Control your funds. No intermediaries. No withdrawal limits.

Metaverse ready. Build virtual storefronts today for tomorrow's shoppers.

Fully compliant. Federal and state licensing. Built to last.

Traditional crypto gateways process payments. Larecoin builds payment ecosystems with immersive commerce experiences.

That's not competition. That's evolution.
