What is Gasyard and how is it different from other payment solutions?
Gasyard is a cross-chain execution protocol that enables universal stablecoin payments. Unlike traditional payment processors that work with fiat currencies, or crypto solutions that work with single blockchains, Gasyard allows users to pay with stablecoins from any supported blockchain and merchants to receive settlements on their preferred chain.Key differences:
- Universal compatibility: Accept from 15+ blockchains with single integration
- Intent-based payments: One signed intent works across NFC, messaging, QR codes, apps
- Instant settlement: 5-10 second finality vs. days for traditional payments
- Programmable money: Rich spending controls and automation capabilities
How fast are cross-chain payments?
How fast are cross-chain payments?
5-10 seconds typical execution with 99.8% success rate.The speed breakdown:
- Intent validation: <1 second
- Solver selection: <2 seconds
- Cross-chain execution: 2-5 seconds
- Settlement confirmation: 2 seconds (Base chain finality)
What are the fees?
What are the fees?
0.01-0.5% for cross-chain transfers depending on:
- Transaction size: Larger transactions get better rates
- Network congestion: Dynamic pricing based on blockchain conditions
- Volume discounts: Regular users and high-volume merchants get preferred rates
- Settlement preferences: Same-chain settlements have minimal fees
- No setup or integration costs
- No monthly minimums
- No currency conversion fees
- No international transfer fees
Security & Safety
How secure are payment intents?
How secure are payment intents?
Payment intents use military-grade cryptographic security:
- EIP-712 signatures: Industry-standard cryptographic signatures prevent tampering
- Built-in limits: Spending controls, expiration dates, and usage restrictions
- Instant revocation: Users can invalidate all intents immediately via nonce increment
- On-chain settlement: All transactions finalized on blockchain with immutable records
- Time-based expiration limits exposure window
- Geographic restrictions prevent unauthorized usage
- Category controls limit spending to approved merchants
- Real-time monitoring detects anomalous activity
