LIVE DEMO How Staychain works
the hidden tax on every trip

Every booking today passes through 3–5 middlemen.

The platform, the payment processor, the bank, the currency exchange — each quietly takes a cut, and your host waits days to get paid.

Platform fee−8%
Payment processor−3%
Bank transfer−2%
Currency exchange−5%
Lost to middlemen~18%

Questions, answered simply

Do I need to understand crypto?

No. Staychain works like any booking app you already know. Behind the scenes it settles in stablecoins, but you just browse, tap to book, and go.

What is USDC?

USDC is a digital dollar (a stablecoin). 1 USDC always equals $1 — it doesn’t bounce around in value. Your wallet works like Apple Pay, just for digital dollars.

What is a “smart contract”?

Think of it as a digital lockbox with rules. It holds your payment and automatically releases it to your host once your stay is complete — no company in the middle deciding when or how much.

Is my money safe?

Yes. Your payment is held securely until your stay is confirmed and completed, and every booking is recorded permanently on-chain so it can never be quietly altered.

How much cheaper is it really?

Traditional bookings can lose ~20% to layers of middlemen. By removing most of them, Staychain brings total fees down to roughly 5% — and your host is paid in seconds, not days.
