GhostPay

GhostPay is GhostWare’s private payment system. It lets users send and receive payments on Solana without revealing their wallet addresses or linking their identity to any transaction.

With GhostPay, anyone can create a private pay link that works like a standard payment request but protects both the sender and the receiver. The receiver stays invisible, and the transaction details stay unlinkable.

Why It Matters

Traditional Solana payments are public. When you share a wallet address, you share your entire financial history. GhostPay changes that. Each GhostPay link creates a unique, one-time payment path that disappears once the transaction is complete.

This makes it possible to get paid safely, even when privacy and anonymity matter most for creators, developers, freelancers, or anyone who values discretion.

How It Works

  1. Connect Wallet The receiver connects their wallet through GhostWare’s interface. The system generates a private endpoint linked to that wallet

  2. Set Amount and Token The receiver enters the amount they want to receive and the token (SOL, USDC, or GHOST).

  3. Generate Link GhostPay creates a one-time pay link and QR code. Under the hood, GhostWare generates a new stealth address through GhostOS and the ID Obfuscation Layer.

  4. Share Link The receiver sends the link or QR code to the payer. The link contains no personal identifiers.

  5. Payer Sends Payment The payer clicks the link, connects their wallet, and pays directly. The transaction routes through ShadowNet relays and is recorded on Solana, but no one can trace it back to the receiver’s valid address.

  6. Funds Sweep Automatically The receiver’s GhostWare interface detects payment and sweeps the funds from the temporary address to their primary wallet. The one-time address is then discarded.

  7. GHOST Token Rewards Every time a payment is completed, the payer earns GHOST tokens as a reward for using the private payment system. The tokens are automatically sent to the payer’s wallet.

Features

  • Anonymous Pay Links: Every payment generates a fresh address that cannot be reused or traced.

  • QR Integration: Easy scanning for mobile payments.

  • Multi-Token Support: Works with SOL, USDC, GHOST, and other SPL tokens.

  • Instant Payouts: The receiver gets funds directly in their connected wallet.

  • Reward System: The payer earns GHOST tokens for every successful private transaction.

Privacy Under the Hood

GhostPay combines several GhostWare technologies:

  • Stealth Addresses hide the receiver’s actual wallet.

  • Tx ShadowNet routes payments through multiple relays to remove traceability.

  • HPKE Encryption protects all transaction metadata.

  • MPC ensures no single node can deanonymize or reconstruct the route.

The result is a private, verifiable payment with zero exposure.

Example Use Case

Alice wants to receive 10 USDC privately. She connects her wallet, sets the amount, and generates a GhostPay link.

Bob clicks the link, connects his wallet, and pays. The payment routes through ShadowNet and lands in a one-time address. GhostOS then sweeps the funds to Alice’s main wallet.

Bob also receives GHOST tokens as a reward for completing the private payment. To any outside observer, there is no visible connection between Bob and Alice.

Why It’s Different

Unlike traditional mixers or privacy pools, GhostPay does not hold user funds. There are no custodians, no pooled balances, and no risk of seizure. It is entirely client-side and runs on top of Solana’s standard transaction system.

GhostPay gives users direct, decentralized privacy, simple to use, and impossible to track.

Coming Next

Future versions will add:

  • Custom Invoices with encrypted notes and expiration timers.

  • Multi-Payment Requests for teams and DAOs.

  • Integration with GhostRoute for private swaps directly from pay links.
