Accept Popcat (POPCAT) payments

POPCAT is a community meme token on Solana, named after the "Popcat" internet meme. Customers who hold it can pay with it on the same easyway checkout and API as SOL, USDT and USDC. Below: the one mint that counts, what its nine decimals change, and what a cheap, volatile token means for invoice amounts and fees.

Token, network and limits

The mint is the one printed on the project's own site, popcatsolana.xyz, and the same one Trust Wallet's token registry and CoinGecko list. We checked it on mainnet: a standard SPL token (the classic Token program, not Token-2022) with 9 decimals. Its mint authority is disabled, so no more POPCAT can ever be created, and it has no freeze authority, so nobody can lock the tokens on your balance or in a customer's wallet.

One mint, many look-alikes

Anyone can create a Solana token and call it POPCAT, and meme tokens attract copies. easyway identifies a token by its mint, never by its name or ticker: a transfer of any other "POPCAT" to an invoice address is simply not seen. The same goes for a POPCAT-named token on another network. The invoice address is a Solana address, so customers paying from an exchange pick Solana as the withdrawal network; tokens sent elsewhere never reach the invoice and cannot be recovered by easyway.

Nine decimals

Most Solana tokens on the checkout (USDT, USDC, PENGU, TRUMP) use six decimals; POPCAT uses nine, like JTO. You never convert anything yourself: the checkout shows the exact amount and puts it in the QR code, and the watcher reads every transfer with the mint's own decimals. Payouts state the decimals too, so a transfer built with the wrong number would be refused by the Solana token program instead of moving the wrong amount.

What paying looks like for the customer

The customer picks POPCAT, sees an amount and a fresh Solana address with a QR code, and sends exactly that amount, for example from Phantom or Solflare. The wallet needs a little SOL for the network fee, plus a small one-time SOL deposit if the invoice address has never held POPCAT (its token account is created on the way). An exchange withdrawal covers this itself. A payment counts once its block is finalized (usually well under a minute) and a second, independent RPC provider returns the same amount; several transfers to the same address add up.

Price and fees

POPCAT trades at a few cents, so a $25 invoice asks for several hundred POPCAT. For a USD invoice that amount is locked from the exchange rate when the customer chooses the coin; after the payment, POPCAT is credited and withdrawn as POPCAT, and from then on the price is your risk. The platform fee is a flat 0.5% of each confirmed payment: 1,000 POPCAT paid leaves 995 on your balance. The withdrawal fee and minimum above are fixed token amounts that cover the Solana fee and the recipient's token-account deposit at listing time. To end up with dollars, also offer USDT on Solana or USDC and choose per invoice with allowed_assets (see limiting the checkout's coins).

Integrating

Nothing is POPCAT-specific: create an invoice through the API (or a payment link without code), redirect to the hosted checkout, and fulfil on the signed invoice.paid webhook. The quickstart has runnable examples, and the sandbox guide shows the flow without real funds.

Common questions

Who holds the POPCAT? easyway keeps it on your balance until you withdraw. Live withdrawals go only to addresses you have whitelisted with two-factor authentication; see security.
