Subscrypts Documentation¶
Subscrypts is a blockchain-based subscription management protocol on Arbitrum One that enables merchants to offer recurring payment services using the SUBS utility token. Payments are automated by smart contracts, require no personal data, and charge only a 1% platform fee.
This documentation covers every component of the Subscrypts ecosystem — from high-level concepts to technical integration guides.
