PocketPay is a non-custodial crypto wallet that helps you access the world of DAPP and DeFi on the Solana Blockchain initially. PocketPay simply allows users to store their SOLANA-based assets/tokens securely. It will also enable users to make smooth transactions directly on Blockchain without any centralized mediator body. PocketPay introduces a unique way to interact users with merchants on POS sales. With the compatibility of SolanaPay, users and merchants will get the benefits of faster transactions in the decentralized world. PocketPay POS feature will enable users to read QR codes on physical stores to purchase using cryptocurrency. PocketPay POS is a mobile payment platform using which you can transfer cryptocurrency to a merchant account, reading QR codes for the purchase you made. PocketPay works on pure DEFI mode, which will utilize Blockchain to send realtime payment using cryptocurrency.
