Gao Payment

A Neutral Payment Rail for the Open Internet

Gao Payment is the core payment rail of Gao Internet. It provides a currency-agnostic layer for applications, services, and agents to exchange value.

What Gao Payment Is

It allows developers to build payments without binding their applications to a specific currency, token, or payment app.

Identity (Gao ID)
Naming (Gao Domain)
Payment Intent
Receipt Generation
Service Access

Identity-Based Payments

Payments start with identity, not addresses. Pay to human-readable domains like naila.gao.

Currency-Agnostic

Neutral by design. Choose stablecoins, crypto assets, or future payment instruments.

Receipts as Source of Truth

Every payment produces a first-class primitive: A Receipt. Applications grant access based on receipts — not raw transaction hashes.

Why PayUSD exists?

  • Simple USD-based unit of account.
  • Subscriptions & Merchant settlement.
  • Real-world cross-border payments.
