Our Revenue Model

Kredo’s revenue model is designed to be protocol-native, predictable, and non-extractive.

Authorization Fees

Rather than charging per transfer or per balance:

• Fees are assessed per validated spending intent

• Fees are paid by integrators, applications, or liquidity operators

• End-users may never see or handle fees directly

This aligns revenue with actual system usage, not speculative activity.

Policy & Infrastructure Access Fees

Entities using advanced features—such as:

• High-volume authorization throughput

• Custom identity policies

• Specialized liquidity configurations

• Compliance-oriented rule sets

Pay recurring protocol fees denominated in $KREDO or routed through i

Liquidity Fog Pool Participation Fees

Liquidity providers who contribute capital to fog pools:

• Earn usage-based compensation

• Pay protocol coordination fees for pool access

• Operate within strict invariant rules enforced by authorization logic

Kredo does not monetize user balances, because balances do not exist.

No User Monetization

Critically:

• Users are not charged custody fees

• Users do not pay account maintenance fees

• Users do not hold protocol debt

Revenue is generated at the infrastructure and integration layer, not at the individual user layer.
