The Merchant Freedom Framework: How Receivables Tokens and Self-Custody Accounts Are Rewriting Global Payment Rules

Payment Processors Are Stealing Your Revenue

Every swipe costs you money. Every transaction cuts into margins. Traditional payment processors pocket 2-3% per sale. Credit card companies take their share. Payment gateways add fees. Settlement takes days.

The math doesn't work anymore.

Merchants hand over billions annually to middlemen who add zero value. They hold your funds. They freeze accounts. They control your cash flow.

That era just ended.

The Merchant Freedom Framework Changes Everything

Larecoin built a system that eliminates payment processors entirely. No intermediaries. No custody chains. No hidden fees eating your profits.

Direct wallet-to-wallet transactions. Blockchain-verified receipts. Self-custody accounts. Stablecoin settlements.

This is the Merchant Freedom Framework.

How Traditional Payment Rails Bleed Merchants Dry

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

Legacy System Costs:

• Credit card interchange: 1.5-3.5%

• Payment gateway fees: 0.5-2%

• Monthly terminal rentals: $30-100

• Chargeback fees: $15-100 per dispute

• Settlement delays: 2-7 business days

• Currency conversion: 2-4% markup

• Account holds and reserves

Alternative Processors Still Charge:

• NOWPayments: 0.5-1% per transaction

• CoinPayments: 0.5% + network fees

• Custodial wallet risks

• KYC delays

• Fund freezes

You're paying for infrastructure that shouldn't exist. Every layer adds cost. Every middleman takes a cut.

Direct Blockchain Acceptance: The 99% Fee Reduction

Larecoin enables merchants to accept cryptocurrency directly to their wallet addresses. No payment gateway. No processor approval. No custody risk.

The Technical Edge:

Connect directly to blockchain nodes using free, open-source tools. Your wallet becomes your payment terminal. Customers send funds. You receive them instantly.

Transaction cost? Gas fees only. On efficient chains, that's fractions of cents.

Real Numbers:

• Traditional: $3.00 fee on $100 sale

• NOWPayments: $0.50-1.00 on $100 sale

• Larecoin Direct: $0.003-0.02 on $100 sale

You keep 99%+ of what you earn.

Self-Custody: Your Money, Your Control

Every centralized payment processor becomes a single point of failure. They hold your funds. They enforce their rules. They freeze accounts without warning.

Self-custody eliminates that risk entirely.

Larecoin's Self-Custody Architecture:

Your private keys. Your wallet. Your funds arrive directly. No intermediary custody period. No settlement windows. No holds.

Payment hits your wallet in seconds. You control when to convert. You decide when to spend. Nobody can freeze your account.

Why Competitors Fall Short:

NOWPayments and CoinPayments operate custodial wallets. They hold funds temporarily. They process withdrawals. They maintain control.

That's not Web3. That's legacy banking with blockchain paint.

NFT Receipts: Programmable Proof of Purchase

Paper receipts fade. Database records get lost. Email confirmations land in spam.

Blockchain receipts are permanent.

Larecoin's NFT Receipt System:

Every transaction automatically mints an NFT receipt. Immutable. Verifiable. Stored on-chain forever.

What's Included:

• Transaction hash and timestamp

• Product details and pricing

• Warranty information

• Return eligibility tokens

• Loyalty program access

• Future promotion rights

These aren't just receipts. They're programmable customer relationships.

Merchant Benefits:

Reduce returns fraud. Automate warranty tracking. Build loyalty programs on-chain. Issue promotional tokens. Create collectible purchase histories.

Customers get verifiable proof. Merchants get programmable engagement tools.

No competitor offers this. NOWPayments gives you a transaction ID. CoinPayments sends an email. Neither creates lasting customer relationships.

LUSD: Decentralized Stability Without Freeze Risk

Accepting cryptocurrency shouldn't mean accepting volatility. Accepting stablecoins shouldn't mean accepting centralized control.

LUSD solves both problems.

Why LUSD Over USDT/USDC:

USDT and USDC are centrally controlled. Tether and Circle can freeze addresses. They comply with government requests. Your funds aren't truly yours.

LUSD maintains a 1:1 USD peg through algorithmic stability. No central issuer. No freeze function. No blacklist capability.

For Merchants:

• Price stability for accounting

• No counterparty risk

• Instant settlement

• Cross-border payments without forex fees

• True financial sovereignty

Accept LUSD through Larecoin. Keep stable purchasing power. Maintain complete control.

Receivables Tokens: Future Cash Flow Today

Traditional factoring charges 15-30% to advance against receivables. Banks take weeks to approve credit lines. Payment terms trap your working capital.

Larecoin receivables tokens flip the model.

How It Works:

Issue tokenized invoices as on-chain receivables. Customers can pay early for discounts. Third parties can purchase tokens for yield.

You get liquidity immediately. Customers get flexibility. Everyone settles on-chain.

The Merchant Advantage:

• Convert 30-day terms into instant cash

• Offer dynamic discounting automatically

• Create liquid markets for your receivables

• Eliminate factoring fees

• Maintain customer relationships

This is capital efficiency impossible in legacy systems.

Multi-Chain Flexibility: Accept Everything

Bitcoin. Ethereum. Solana. Polygon. Arbitrum.

Customers hold value across chains. Merchants need to accept all of them.

Larecoin's Multi-Chain Support:

One integration. Every major blockchain. Unified settlement.

Your wallet receives payments across chains. Larecoin handles the routing. You get consolidated reporting.

No need to maintain wallets on every chain. No complicated setup. Just accept payments wherever your customers are.

NOWPayments and CoinPayments support multiple chains but charge fees per transaction across all of them. Larecoin eliminates those layers.
