# AstraPay Silver

AstraPay is Astra’s non-custodial, non-KYC Web3 payment protocol that allows projects and businesses to accept crypto payments instantly with minimal fees and seamless integration. Normally, the **Silver tier** requires **$100,000 in processed volume** to unlock reduced fees — but every project launching through AstraPad receives this upgrade **immediately from day one**.

AstraPay empowers your project to enable real Web3 commerce, create new utility pathways, and onboard users faster with frictionless payment flows.

#### By activating AstraPay Silver, your project can:

* Accept major supported cryptocurrencies with instant settlement
* Enjoy reduced transaction fees without meeting the $100K volume requirement
* Integrate quickly through simple non-custodial setup
* Offer frictionless payments for mints, services, early access, donations, and product sales
* Improve user onboarding with fast, secure payment flows

This gives your project professional-grade Web3 payment capabilities from launch day.

#### **Your Benefit**

Instead of starting on the basic tier and paying higher fees until reaching $100,000 in processed volume, your project instantly unlocks **Silver-level pricing and benefits**, lowering your operational costs from day one and increasing profit.

#### **Why It’s a Win:**

Most projects need time and volume to qualify for reduced payment fees. AstraPad founders skip this entirely — receiving advanced fee reductions immediately, improving margins on sales, and any paid utility inside your ecosystem
