Web3 Payments with Purpose: How Larecoin's 1.5% Transaction Tax Funds Global Charities (While You Save on Fees)

You're paying 3.5% to Visa. Then donating separately to look good. That's double-dipping on your margins.

What if your payment processor cut your fees in half and automatically donated to verified charities with every transaction?

That's not theory. That's Larecoin's 1.5% transaction tax in action.

The Problem With Traditional Payment Processing

Stripe charges 2.9% + $0.30 per transaction. PayPal hits you for 3.49% for international payments. Mastercard adds interchange fees on top. Gateway charges. Assessment fees. Monthly subscriptions.

Then you donate to charity as a separate transaction. More fees. More paperwork. More headaches.

Annual cost for a $500K business:

• Traditional processors: $2,300-$3,800

• Hidden fees you didn't know existed

• Zero social impact built into the system

How Larecoin's 1.5% Transaction Tax Actually Works

Every payment through LareBlocks Layer 1 blockchain triggers an automatic three-step process.

Step 1: Payment Processes Customer pays. Transaction confirms instantly. Merchant receives funds.

Step 2: Automatic Segregation 1.5% routes to charitable allocation pool. No manual intervention. No separate donation forms.

Step 3: Smart Contract Distribution Funds distribute to verified charity wallets monthly. Blockchain-verified. Transparent. Trackable.

The focus? Global hunger relief organizations.

0.8% of that 1.5% qualifies as a tax-deductible charitable contribution for your business. The rest covers network operations.

The Real Numbers: What You Actually Save

Let's break down the math for a business processing $500,000 annually.

Traditional Processors (Stripe/PayPal/Square):

• Base processing fee: 2.9-3.5% = $14,500-$17,500

• Gateway charges: $0.10-$0.30 per transaction = $600-$1,800

• Monthly subscription: $0-$300 = $0-$3,600

• Assessment fees: Variable = $200-$400

• Total: $15,300-$23,300 annually

Larecoin:

• Flat 1.5% fee = $7,500

• Zero hidden fees

• Zero monthly subscriptions

• Zero per-transaction charges

• Total: $7,500 annually

Your savings: 57-60% reduction in payment processing costs.

And you're funding global hunger relief at the same time.

Tax Benefits You Can Actually Use

Traditional donation model:

1. Pay 3% processing fee (not deductible as charity)

2. Donate separately to charity (deductible)

3. Track two separate transactions for tax purposes

4. Hope the IRS accepts your documentation

Larecoin model:

1. Pay 1.5% transaction fee (0.8% qualifies as charitable contribution)

2. Receive automatic NFT receipt with blockchain verification

3. Submit to IRS with full documentation trail

4. Done

The 0.8% portion qualifies as a tax-deductible charitable contribution under current IRS guidelines. Your accountant will love you.
