'Solana Labs,' the public blockchain platform and home to 'SOL Coin,' has announced a new proprietary payment software named 'Solana Pay.' Solana Pay will enable merchants to process transactions and move "stablecoin" currencies compatible with the Solana blockchain. Included in this list of stablecoins is U.S. Dollar Coin (USDC), meaning this payment platform will be desirable for many merchants to use in their POS systems.
Solana Pay's direct integration with the Solana blockchain and platform as a whole means Solana can optimize the entire system. The results of this total unification include the ability to process 65,000 transactions per second near instantaneously. On top of this, Solana Pay only takes a transaction fee of $0.00025 per transaction.
Solana has stated that enabling Solana Pay on a POS network or system will be incredibly simple and not time-consuming.
