GoldConnect Payments & Transaction Controls

Move faster with stablecoin payments and structured escrow workflows.

GoldConnect Africa now supports selected stablecoin payment options for paid memberships and a structured stablecoin escrow workflow for agreed transactions. Reduce payment friction while keeping funding, release requests, disputes and transaction status visible inside the marketplace.

Membership

Pay with supported stablecoins

Paid GoldConnect memberships can be funded through NOWPayments using supported stablecoin networks, including USDT on TRON and USDC on Solana where enabled.

Escrow workflow

Fund, hold, release or dispute

For agreed transactions, GoldConnect tracks buyer funding, funded status, release requests, disputes, refunds and final payout references in one controlled workflow.

Verification

Payment status is verified

GoldConnect does not rely on a browser success screen alone. Payment state is updated after a verified NOWPayments callback is received by the platform.

How stablecoin membership payments work

Choose a paid GoldConnect membership, sign in, and continue to the hosted NOWPayments payment flow. The payment provider presents the supported crypto options and payment instructions. Once the payment reaches the required confirmed state and GoldConnect receives a valid signed callback, the membership can be activated or extended.

Current paid plans: Bronze USD 19/month · Silver USD 49/month · Gold USD 99/month. Available payment networks depend on the currencies enabled in the connected NOWPayments account.

How the stablecoin escrow workflow works

The escrow feature is designed for a transaction where buyer and seller have already agreed commercial terms. A buyer creates the transaction record, identifies the seller, selects the agreed amount and supported stablecoin network, and funds the transaction through NOWPayments. Where Custodial Processing is enabled, funds can remain in NOWPayments Custody while GoldConnect records transaction status.

  1. Agree the deal: both parties confirm commercial terms and complete appropriate due diligence.
  2. Create the escrow record: the buyer records the seller, transaction value, network and payout details.
  3. Fund the transaction: the buyer receives the NOWPayments funding instructions.
  4. Confirm funded status: GoldConnect updates the record after a verified provider callback.
  5. Release or dispute: the buyer can request release; either party can raise a dispute where appropriate.
  6. Complete payout/refund: the final external payout or refund reference is recorded for auditability.

Start with Stablecoin Escrow

Built for cross-border mineral trade

Stablecoins can reduce some of the friction involved in moving value across borders, but the payment rail is only one part of a serious mineral transaction. GoldConnect combines payment workflow visibility with marketplace profiles, Digital Mineral Passports, verification evidence, Deal Rooms, compliance controls, custody tracking and transaction records.

GoldConnect workflows do not replace independent legal, regulatory, financial, assay, logistics or counterparty due diligence. Users remain responsible for confirming that a transaction and chosen payment method are lawful and appropriate in the relevant jurisdictions.
