Take a deposit weeks before the van arrives.

Contractors, builders and trades take money before the work starts and get underwritten for the gap. Materials have to be bought now, out of cash a card company is holding back. Settlement to a wallet you control, final after the required network confirmations, removes that hold.

Why this category gets penalised

The problem is the gap between paying and delivering.

Deposits taken weeks before the work

A deposit collected in March for a June installation sits inside the card company's dispute window the entire time. Long-fulfilment trades are a standard reserve category for exactly that reason.

Settlement is treated as final only once the transaction confirms, and that confirmed leg is not a card-network dispute rail, so the scheduling gap stops mattering to your cash position.

Disputes after the job is signed off

Workmanship disagreements arrive as card disputes, where the funds are pulled back from you first and argued about afterwards, with a fee either way and no site visit in the evidence pack.

Zoyn does not reverse a settled transfer, so a workmanship disagreement stays a conversation about your contract instead of an issuer's decision.

Subcontractors waiting on your settlement

You are paid in a batch and your electrician, plumber and materials supplier are paid out of it later, which puts your working capital between the customer and the trades.

Settlement reaches your wallet after the required network confirmations, so your working capital never sits between them and the trades — paying on is a USDC transfer whose timing you control, not a batch you wait for.

How it works

One payment, settled to a wallet you control.

How a payment settles through ZoynA customer pays a payment link. The payment reaches a settlement contract, which divides it in fixed proportions set when it was deployed and pays the merchant’s own wallet and the platform fee directly. Zoyn sits outside the flow of funds.CustomerHostedcheckoutSplitcontractYour walletPlatform feeZoyn (config)Funds never pass through Zoyn
1

Create the job link

Set the deposit or stage amount and the job reference. Send it by text, by email, or on your own quote.

2

Customer pays their way

Card or crypto on a hosted checkout. Card availability depends on the buyer's location, currency, and available checkout providers. Card-funded payments are handled by the checkout provider — you never handle card details.

3

Your share is fixed up front

The shares are fixed when your payments are set up: your share and the platform fee. Every payment follows them exactly, and each one can be checked on a public record.

4

USDC lands in your wallet

Final after the required network confirmations, into a wallet you control — cash for materials on the day, not after a batch cycle.

Coverage

Where we can onboard you today.

Your type of business

Businesses in this group can apply. You pick your exact type of business when you apply, and every application is reviewed.

Jurisdictions we cannot serve

We cannot onboard merchants operating from comprehensively sanctioned jurisdictions. A US state stays open when at least one checkout partner still serves buyers there. We do not hold ourselves out as licensed anywhere.

Wallet addresses you'll be paid to are checked against sanctions lists when you enter them, and re-checked every day after that.

Common questions

What home services & trades merchants ask first.

Can we take a deposit now and the balance on completion?

Yes — that is two links. Each one is a fixed amount you create and send when the stage is due. Zoyn does not run recurring billing, so nothing is ever taken from a customer without them completing that checkout themselves.

A customer is withholding over snagging. Are we exposed?

Not to a reversal. Money already settled cannot be clawed back, so the disagreement is about the remaining stage payment and your contract terms — a commercial negotiation rather than a card-network process with a fee attached.

Do our subcontractors need to understand crypto?

No. Zoyn is for getting you paid; it does not pay anyone on your behalf, so how you pay your subcontractors stays your own arrangement. Zoyn never holds your funds.

Company

Legal

Legal & regulatory disclosures

Zoyn is software. It is not a bank, a payment processor, a payment gateway, a money transmitter or a money services business. Zoyn is never the seller in a sale (the "merchant of record"). Zoyn never holds a shop's money, and does not decide how long a payment company may hold it. When a customer pays by card or bank, the payment company handles that payment under its own terms and may hold it for a short time. The money then goes to the shop's own payment contract once the payment network has confirmed it.

Businesses can be based in 64 jurisdictions. A US state stays open when at least one checkout partner still serves buyers there. Customers can pay from 130+ countries through the checkout providers we connect to; which countries customers can pay from is set by those providers, not by Zoyn, and may change without notice. Not available in sanctioned jurisdictions: Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Sudan, Syria, and the Crimea, Donetsk, and Luhansk regions of Ukraine.
