The onchain commerce protocol slice.so | follow /slice to stay up to date

There’s never been a better time to own a @slice store.

Pro tip: refine your storefront, polish your products, and get your links ready at slice.so — onchain commerce is back.

Just copped (shop.slice.so/store/1285) feeling nounish

@slice nailed crypto checkout
Apple pay level UX and waaaay better than typing in a credit card
Let me pay in ETH even though it was priced in USDC (boo fiat money)
Wild how far we’ve come. A couple years ago, sub-cent fees + checkout this smooth was a pipedream

Apple’s monopoly on payments is finally over.

Epic won, didn’t think I’d see the day.

You can now use @slice for in-app payments. Just as planned.

NO FEES on web transactions. Game over for the Apple Tax.

Apple’s 15-30% junk fees are now just as dead here in the United States of America as they are in Europe under the Digital Markets Act. Unlawful here, unlawful there.

i’m in lisbon and as you know there’s a blackout in portugal and spain

perfect time to onboard your favourite restaurant or coffee shop to crypto, as merchants can’t accept card payments

impressive to see the lines to pay with cash, much slower than what we are used to

Shopify clone mini app (with Coinbase Commerce) and Gumroad clone mini app (can do direct payments here) would both be extremely valuable and you would be justified in taking txn fee or saas fee for them

ready for onchain commerce? 

btw @slice mini app is coming 👀

I have an idea: don’t coin anything but sell a product people actually want

The fact that credit cards take 3%+ of every transaction is so normalized that we only notice when a restaurant dares to show us

The system is so broken that paying digitally costs more than paying with paper

merchants are getting tired of quietly eating the hidden costs

early signs of a revolution

Worked on a small mini app over the weekend - buy data eSIMs with crypto!

The prices are cheaper than industry standard for most countries. Check it out and would love any feedback!

This was a surprising and delightful user journey to use a Mini-app for my most real world need so far. Set up a French sim at local Orange store 3 weeks ago, including commute time took 90min, this took 5min and directly where I spend time online 👏

merchants have it rough. but dispute costs are on the card networks, not on stripe.

that’s why @slice and onchain commerce are inevitable

hey @stripe, i think it makes no sense that someone can dispute a payment they actually made (legitimately) and then i have to either fight my ass off to not lose (i will lose 90% of the time either way) or just accept the $20 loss EVERY SINGLE TIME! 

pls fix, thank you :) https://t.co/I1AuTOJ83I

crypto is scrambling to imitate the apple pay experience, while apple is quietly trying to imitate @slice pay 😏

I just scanned a QR code to Apple Pay from my phone when checking out on desktop.

I've never encountered this flow before with Apple Pay - I know wechat/alipay is huge on this.

Is this new? Can Stripe elements do this? I want this everywhere!
