Every day, when it comes to payment methods, people tries to find the best way it suits them, whether it's cash, debit or credit cards, checks and more. What not everyone knows, it's how technology it's replacing all of these methods susceptibles to multiple consequences if something doesn't work as it should be and similar things can happen to cryptocurrencies users.

With the evolution of cryptocurrencies, more and more people are deciding to give them a chance when it comes to use them as their paypemt method for purchasing services or items for their daily life but, what happens when they aren't able to process essential transactions or when you can't actually do it because of the missing third-party payment processor ? This is GRAFT wants to solve with its decentralized payment network so crypto paymentes can be done and accepted by merchants and consumers while respecting the existing principles of cryptocurrencies and cryptographic tokens.

What is GRAFT?

Is an organization that it's introducing a decentralized, real-time payment processor that will change the way merchants and consumers make transaccations, benefiting both parties thanks to it's low fees for consumers and letting merchants offer more and more, supporting Bitcoin and several major cryptocurriencies and cryptographic tokens, eliminating the need to purchase different centralized payment softwares or apps for both sides of the coin, so merchants and consumers won't be in the need of looking the right platform when it comes to transactions and payments, provinding a new payment method so consumers won't depend on the use of debit and credit cards, cash or online transactions, letting them choose their favorite option to acquire services and products from their favorite merchants and stores.

Lack of acceptance

Nowdays, due to people being used to their old payment methods, not all of them will give cryptocurrencies payment methods a chance plus, a lot of them are still not well known by the public. One of the reasons why this happens it's because of the need to use a variety of third-parties softwares to have access to multiple cryptocurrencies, where all have different benefits and drawbacks.

GRAFT's RTA

GRAFT's technology is very different. With the use of RTA (real time authorizations), transacctions are made almost instant, so both sides (the buyer and the seller) will complete the deal without waiting several hours to see the transaction's approval, to keep going with their daily life using normal payment methods and GRAFT and use of their favorite cryptocurrencies, all of these while GRAFT's RTA works with supernodes confirming and validatiing the transacations.

RTA and the future of crypto

Real time authorizations are what the world of cryptos needs, most of platforms ensure secure transactions but with waiting times ranging from minutes to hours. With RTA technology, the use of cryptos will be faster and of course, secure. Users won't feel overwhelmed because the transaction it's taking more than it should be, since RTA will process it almost immediately to make sure both sides get their parts without problems. Plus, it will be easier to learn how to use them properly because we will not fall into the despair that waiting can sometimes create about whether or not we did something wrong with the transaction.
