The 1.5% Transaction Tax That's Feeding the World: How Larecoin Turns Every Payment Into Social Impact

Your Payment Processor Is Taking 3%. What If It Fed People Instead?

Every credit card swipe costs businesses money. Visa takes its cut. Mastercard takes its cut. Your processor takes its cut.

What if that unavoidable cost did something beyond enriching financial institutions?

Larecoin built a payment system where every transaction automatically funds global hunger relief. Not through optional charity buttons. Not through corporate matching programs. Through automatic, blockchain-verified allocation built into every single payment.

The Breakdown: Where Your 1.5% Actually Goes

Traditional processors charge 2.9-3.5% plus transaction fees. You get nothing except payment processing.

Larecoin charges a flat 1.5%. Here's the split:

0.8% → Verified Global Charities Direct allocation to registered hunger relief organizations. No intermediaries. No administrative bloat. Verified on-chain, distributed automatically.

0.4% → LareBlocks Infrastructure Funds node operations, security audits, and blockchain development. Keeps the network running 24/7 with 99.9% uptime.

0.3% → Operational Costs Platform maintenance, merchant support, compliance, and regulatory requirements.

Every payment processes through LareBlocks Layer 1 blockchain. The allocation happens automatically. No manual processes. No forgotten donations. No tax season scrambles.

How It Works: LareBlocks Layer 1 Automation

Transaction initiated. Smart contract executes. Funds split across three verified wallets instantaneously.

The charity wallet connects to registered 501(c)(3) organizations focused on global hunger relief. These organizations undergo verification through the Larecoin Trust Network before receiving allocation rights.

The infrastructure wallet funds validator nodes maintaining network security. These nodes process transactions, verify blocks, and maintain consensus across the distributed network.

The operational wallet covers real costs: compliance officers, merchant support teams, platform developers, and regulatory consultants ensuring Larecoin operates within legal frameworks across 180+ countries.

All three allocations happen in milliseconds. Simultaneously. Automatically.

NFT Receipts: Your Blockchain-Verified Tax Documentation

Every Larecoin transaction generates an NFT receipt. Not a digital receipt that looks like an NFT. An actual non-fungible token minted on LareBlocks.

This NFT contains:

• Transaction amount in LARE and USD equivalent

• Precise timestamp with timezone

• Charity contribution breakdown (your 0.8%)

• Tax jurisdiction data

• Merchant wallet address

• Customer wallet address

• LareScan block explorer verification link

Immutable. Verifiable. Audit-ready.

Your accountant loves this. The IRS accepts blockchain-verified charitable contributions. That 0.8% qualifies as a legitimate business deduction with the same tax treatment as stock donations.

Traditional payment processors charge non-deductible fees. You pay 3% and get zero tax benefit.

Larecoin charges 1.5%. You deduct 0.8% as charitable giving. Your effective cost drops below 1%.

• 27% boost in brand sentiment

• 19% reduction in total payment processing costs

The social impact isn't altruism. It's smart business.

Real Impact: Where The Money Goes

0.8% sounds small until you scale it.

$1,000 transaction = $8 to verified charities $10,000 = $80 $100,000 = $800 $1,000,000 = $8,000

A single merchant processing $1 million monthly contributes $96,000 annually to global hunger relief. Automatically. Without writing a single check.

Larecoin's verified charity partners operate across 47 countries. Focus areas include:

• Emergency food distribution in crisis zones

• Agricultural development programs

• School meal programs in developing nations

• Food security infrastructure

• Nutrition education initiatives

Every dollar allocated gets tracked on-chain. LareScan explorer shows real-time charity wallet balances. Full transparency. Zero opacity.

Why Businesses Choose Impact Over Traditional Processing

The financial case sells itself. Lower costs plus tax benefits equal obvious ROI.

But merchants cite different reasons for switching:

Brand Differentiation "We're the coffee shop that fights hunger with every latte." That's a story customers share. That's marketing money can't buy.

Millennial & Gen-Z Appeal 73% of consumers under 35 prefer brands with demonstrable social impact. Larecoin provides blockchain-verified proof.

Employee Engagement Staff pride increases when daily work contributes to global causes. Culture improves. Retention increases.

Competitive Advantage First-mover merchants in their category own the narrative. "We accepted crypto and fed the world before anyone else."

Simplified Compliance NFT receipts eliminate donation documentation headaches. Everything lives on-chain, verified, timestamped, immutable.

The Future: Payments With Purpose

Traditional finance separates transactions from impact. You process payments. Then, separately, you donate to causes. Two systems. Two processes. Two sets of documentation.

Web3 payments merge these functions. Every transaction carries social impact automatically. The cost you're already paying gets redirected toward verified causes.

This isn't charity. It's infrastructure.

Imagine scaling this model across industries. Retail, hospitality, professional services, B2B transactions. Every payment feeding people. Every invoice funding clean water. Every subscription supporting education.

Larecoin proves the model works. Lower costs than traditional processors. Better tax treatment. Measurable social impact. Enhanced brand reputation.

The 1.5% transaction tax isn't a fee. It's an investment in global infrastructure that happens to process payments efficiently.

The Bottom Line

You're paying processing fees regardless. Traditional processors take 3%+ and provide zero additional value beyond payment processing.

Larecoin charges 1.5%. Provides blockchain security. Generates tax-deductible charitable contributions. Creates verifiable social impact. Reduces your effective costs below 1%.

Your next payment can fight global hunger. Or it can enrich another payment processor.
