Social Impact Meets Payments

When Your Payment System Actually Gives Back

Payment processors made $126 billion last year. Most of it came from merchants. Small businesses. Non-profits. Community organizations.

Zero went back to social causes.

That's changing. Fast.

The Old Model Extracts. The New Model Returns.

Traditional payment rails take 2.9% + $0.30 per transaction. Sometimes more. For merchants doing $100K annually, that's $3,000+ in fees. For a charity running ticket sales? Money that could fund programs instead disappears into corporate coffers.

Larecoin flips this model.

Our fee structure runs less than 50% of Visa and Mastercard rates. That savings? It stays with merchants. Gets reinvested in communities. Funds actual impact.

Social Impact Isn't a Marketing Campaign

Here's what real social impact looks like in Web3 payments:

Financial Inclusion Over 865 million people opened their first bank accounts during the pandemic through digital payment systems. Larecoin's infrastructure extends this access without requiring traditional banking relationships.

Community Ownership Decentralized payment networks mean profits don't funnel to shareholders. They stay in the ecosystem. Master and sub-wallet management lets enterprises distribute funds directly to communities.

Transparent Impact Tracking Every transaction on LareBlocks creates an immutable record. Check LareScan. See exactly where funds flow. No hidden fees. No creative accounting.

The LUSD Advantage for Social Programs

Volatility kills social programs.

You can't budget healthcare when your treasury swings 20% weekly. Can't plan education initiatives when funding fluctuates daily.

Enter LUSD: Larecoin's stablecoin.

Price-stable payments. Predictable budgeting. All the benefits of crypto rails with none of the volatility chaos. Social enterprises run on tight margins. LUSD protects those margins.

Government benefit programs? Digital welfare distribution? LUSD makes it possible without exposing vulnerable populations to market swings.

NFT Receipts: More Than Just Proof of Purchase

Every Larecoin transaction can generate an NFT receipt.

Sounds gimmicky. It's not.

For social impact, this means:

• Donation tracking: Donors see exactly where contributions go

• Impact verification: Non-profits prove fund allocation

• Tax documentation: Automated, immutable records for write-offs

• Community recognition: Public acknowledgment of supporters

Traditional receipts sit in email folders. NFT receipts live on-chain. Permanent. Verifiable. Shareable.

Gift Cards Meet Crypto: Accessible Impact

Not everyone holds crypto. Most people don't.

Larecoin's gift card crypto purchase system bridges this gap. Buy gift cards with LARE or LUSD. Spend at major retailers. Simple. Familiar. No learning curve.

For social programs, this unlocks:

• Direct aid distribution: Give recipients purchasing power, not vouchers

• Reduced overhead: No physical card printing or distribution costs

• Expanded merchant acceptance: 10,000+ retailers vs. limited non-profit networks

Social workers can load gift cards with crypto. Families shop normally. No stigma. No restrictions.

AI-Driven Shopping for Social Good

Larecoin's AI shopping tools optimize purchases for impact.

Search for eco-friendly products. Find fair-trade options. Locate minority-owned businesses.

The AI layer analyzes merchant practices. Surfaces ethical alternatives. Routes payments to enterprises aligned with user values.

Traditional payment processors push you toward their partners. Larecoin's AI serves your priorities.

Community Social Hubs: Where Impact Happens

Payment rails enable commerce. Social hubs enable connection.

Larecoin's community features bring users together around shared causes:

• Impact DAOs: Collective decision-making on fund allocation

• Merchant networks: Connect conscious consumers with ethical businesses

• Resource sharing: Coordinate mutual aid and community support

• Event coordination: Organize fundraisers and awareness campaigns

Payment infrastructure isn't just about moving money. It's about building movements.

Enterprise Tools for Scale

Social impact needs scale. Scale needs infrastructure.

Master/Sub-Wallet Management Organizations run dozens of programs. Each needs separate budgets. Transparent accounting. Larecoin's enterprise wallets handle this natively.

Create sub-wallets for each initiative. Allocate funds programmatically. Track spending by project. All on-chain. All auditable.

LareBlocks Infrastructure Purpose-built blockchain for payment velocity. Thousands of transactions per second. Low fees even at scale.

LareScan Analytics Real-time visibility into payment flows. Filter by merchant. By cause. By geography. Social enterprises need data. LareScan delivers.

Decentralization as Social Justice

Centralized payment processors can deplatform anyone. Freeze accounts. Block transactions.

We've seen it happen to:

• Political activists

• Controversial charities

• Organizations challenging corporate interests

Larecoin's decentralized architecture prevents this.

No single entity controls the network. No CEO can shut down your payment processing. No board votes on who deserves financial access.

Code is law. If you have the keys, you control the funds.

This matters for social movements. Especially movements that challenge existing power structures.

The Numbers Don't Lie

Traditional payment processing redistributes wealth upward. Web3 payment rails keep value in communities.

Merchant Fee Comparison:

• Visa/Mastercard: 2.9% + $0.30

• PayPal: 2.99% + $0.49

• Larecoin: Less than 50% of traditional rates

For a $1M non-profit:

• Traditional fees: ~$30,000

• Larecoin fees: <$15,000

• Additional impact: $15,000+

That's staff salaries. Program expansion. Real impact.
