Building for CrackPay

Why build for CrackPay?​

  • Users who hold dollars. Every CrackPay account holds USDC. Your app does not have to onboard anyone onto crypto first.
  • No wallet friction. No install, no extension, no seed phrase, no connect step. Your app opens connected.
  • No gas. CrackPay sponsors every transaction. A user with $1 can spend $1.
  • Instant. Arc finalises in under a second, so payments feel like a tap.
  • Distribution. Listed apps appear on CrackPay's Apps page.

About CrackPay​

CrackPay is a self-custodial USD stablecoin wallet built by Cracked Studios on Arc. Users sign up with a passkey, get a @handle, and can send dollars to a handle, a link or a QR code. It runs in any phone browser and installs as an app.

About Arc​

Arc is Circle's Layer 1 blockchain. USDC is its native gas token, fees are stable and predictable, and blocks are final in under a second. CrackPay uses Circle's smart accounts and gas sponsorship on top.
