What is CRBPay?

A non-custodial on-chain settlement protocol

CRBPay is an open, non-custodial settlement protocol that enables direct on-chain value transfer between payers and merchants.

All settlements occur on-chain through immutable smart contracts. CRBPay never takes custody of user funds and never participates in the transaction flow.

Non-custodial by design

Funds flow directly between users and merchants

Permissionless settlement

Anyone can use the protocol without approval

Zero protocol fees

No fees charged by CRBPay protocol

Deterministic outcomes

Smart contract logic is immutable and predictable

Backend is observer-only

CRBPay backend only reads blockchain state

CRBPay is a non-custodial on-chain settlement protocol. It enables direct value transfer between users and merchants through immutable smart contracts, without intermediaries, custody, or protocol fees.

How it Works

Direct on-chain settlement in four steps

1

Merchant creates an order (off-chain)

Order metadata is created via API. No funds are involved at this stage.

2

A dedicated smart account is generated

Each order maps to a predictable on-chain account with immutable settlement rules.

3

User sends funds directly on-chain

Funds are sent directly from the user's wallet to the smart account.

4

Settlement is executed on-chain

Once conditions are met, funds are forwarded directly to the merchant.

Important

CRBPay infrastructure does not participate in settlement execution.

Important Legal Clarifications

What CRBPay is NOT

Important clarifications for legal and regulatory understanding

CRBPay is NOT:

  • A payment gateway
  • A custodial wallet
  • An escrow service
  • A money transmitter
  • A financial intermediary

CRBPay does NOT:

  • Hold user funds
  • Decide when payments settle
  • Approve or reject transactions
  • Touch user assets at any point

CRBPay provides open-source software and on-chain infrastructure only. All settlement logic is enforced by immutable smart contracts on public blockchains.

Trustless Architecture

Security & Trust Model

CRBPay removes the need to trust any intermediary

Settlement logic is enforced by immutable smart contracts. Anyone can independently verify fund flows on-chain.

No admin keys

No privileged access to modify settlement logic

No upgradeable contracts

Smart contracts are immutable after deployment

No off-chain settlement logic

All settlement rules enforced on-chain

Permissionless execution

Anyone can trigger settlement when conditions are met

Trust Model

Verify, don't trust

Smart ContractsImmutable

Deployed code cannot be changed by anyone

Settlement LogicOn-chain

All rules enforced transparently on blockchain

Fund FlowsVerifiable

Anyone can audit transactions on-chain

CRBPay BackendObserver Only

Only reads blockchain state, cannot modify

Gas & Fees

Transparent fee structure

0%

Protocol Fee

CRBPay charges zero protocol fees.

Network Gas

Gas Fees

Users pay standard network gas fees.

Optional

Gas Sponsorship

Gas sponsorship (if any) is optional and community-funded.

Important Note

Gas funding does not grant any control over settlement.

Off-chain Coordination Tools

For Developers

CRBPay APIs are off-chain coordination tools

APIs are used for creating orders, retrieving order metadata, and observing settlement status.

APIs are used for:

  • Creating orders
  • Retrieving order metadata
  • Observing settlement status

APIs are NOT used to:

  • Move funds
  • Trigger settlement
  • Control smart contracts
