New Use Case article on Dapplocker, a multi-chain analytics and visualization platform using Request Finance to manage their grants & bounty payments

👉 https://www.request.finance/use-cases/dapplooker

Abhinav Singh, Co-Founder at DappLocker says;
Everyone knows dApps in web3 are notorious for having a poor user experience. In contrast, the simplicity and ease of use stood out to us immediately when we first started using Request Finance. It provides us with a clean and simple dashboard to manage all of our crypto transaction records in one place.

New Use Case article on RealT, a real estate tokenization platform

👉 https://www.request.finance/use-cases/realt

Michael Courvoisier, COO at Real Token Technologies Inc.
"Since we started using Request Finance, we have seen an uptick in new customers, a larger average basket at checkout, and lower transaction fees. It makes billing our users in crypto easy, and the 0.1% fee charged by the platform is far lower than any alternatives out there"

How RealT uses Request Finance?
To accept payments on Gnosis Chain, in USD stablecoins like USDC when investors want to buy new real estate assets or insurance products in RealT.

New Use Case article on Subspace, a layer 1 blockchain powering Web3 at Internet scale

👉 https://www.request.finance/use-cases/subspace

Jeremiah Wagstaff, CEO and Co-founder at Subspace Labs;
"Request Finance not only saves us 1-2 hours per week in processing crypto payments, but also saves us days during our annual tax and corporate reporting seasons. Our crypto payments history can be exported in a single keystroke for analysis and preparation of tax and financial statements"

What made Request stand out against other alternatives?
The Subspace executive management team looked at systems like Gusto and Deel, but they required us to link bank accounts and send fiat payments.
We needed a crypto-native solution without needing to involve centralized financial institutions. 👌

Hey our escrow feature for crypto payments is now live 🎉 🎉

For starters, an escrow offers a safe deposit box which automatically disburses when both parties agree that contract has been satisfied.

Traditionally this service involves having an intermediary, taking a hefty commission cut.

But with Request Finance, you now have access to escrow using smart contract, with just a $2 flat fee per payment, paid for by the payer 🥳

Try it out and let us know what you think on Discord or via our Intercom Feature on the website.
