Enabling Payment Gateways to Accept TRON Payments with Kima Network’s Technology

Kima Network is the world’s first cross-ecosystem blockchain protocol that enables seamless money transfers across any infrastructure, whether blockchain-based or not (that’s actually why we also call Kima a universal liquidity protocol).

What does that mean for businesses?

As a business entity, you can enable your users to effortlessly send crypto across different blockchain networks supported by Kima or even make crypto transfers to a digital bank account. 

TRON is one of the blockchain networks integrated by Kima Network. By helping TRON access more liquidity via Kima Network, we enable TRON dApps and users to make cross-chain money transfers across the TRON ecosystem.

In this article, we will guide you through a step-by-step process of transferring money and accepting payments using the power of Kima Network.

But first things first…

What Is TRON?

The TRON Network is a decentralized, blockchain-based digital payment system that leverages the widely adopted TRC-20 token standard. TRON users in eligible jurisdictions may facilitate transactions over the network using the blockchain’s native utility token TRON (TRX). Many opt to leverage TRON for its decentralized and peer-to-peer nature, which is touted for it’s secure, fast, and low-cost transactions, making it an option for businesses looking to accept cryptocurrency payments.

The TRON network provides a robust infrastructure for processing digital payments. TRON aims to provide secure transactions through its crypto payment gateway processing, emphasizing security, and smooth digital transactions for businesses and their customers.

Per the TRON project, businesses that accept payments leveraging the TRON blockchain can enjoy numerous benefits, which include rapid transaction processing speed, minimal fees, and access to a global customer base:

1. Fast transactions: TRON’s high-performance network ensures quick transaction processing speeds.
2. Low fees: Transaction fees on the TRON network are minimal compared to traditional payment methods.

4. Security: Blockchain technology provides a secure and transparent way to process transactions.
5. Increased customer base: the ability to make TRON-based payments attracts crypto-savvy customers and expands your market reach.

How Can Merchants Accept Payments with TRON, Using the Kima Network?

As an infrastructure-agnostic protocol, Kima Network can also be viewed as a bridgeless bridge between different financial ecosystems or blockchain networks, simplifying the process for merchants to accept TRON TRC-20 payments and other crypto payments as well.

Here’s how it can work:

1. A user sends funds from their wallet or bank account to a decentralized-managed vault at the origin point.
2. Kima's validators reach a consensus to verify and approve the transaction.
3. Approved funds move directly from Kima's vault at the destination to the recipient's bank account or wallet without wrapping tokens.
