How Starzip Works
Token Sale
Starzip Token Sale sells part of a Store Token to users at a price set by a sale contract. The sale supply is 10% of the total supply. The price becomes higher the more is sold, and buyers can sell back to the contract at the current price at any time. There is no sale target, end date, minimum amount or pre-registration.
If the sale supply is not sold out, the sale stays open and the token is not listed.
Sale Proceeds and Allocation
The total supply is split into the sale supply (10%), liquidity (2%) and the owner allocation (88%).
- Sale proceeds accumulate in the sale contract during the sale. Nothing is paid out to the business owner in cash when the sale ends.
- At listing, a 5% listing fee is deducted from the sale proceeds and the remaining 95% becomes the token's market liquidity.
- The owner allocation is the owner's own tokens. After a 3-month lockup from listing, it is released in 24 monthly steps, and each step requires that month's revenue proof to be confirmed.
DEX Listing
Starzip does not admit a Store Token to trading on its own initiative. Once the sale supply is sold out, the Issuer decides whether to seek listing and confirms it in the Console with a passkey. Selling out is a condition for listing, not an instruction to list. The market opens shortly after the confirmation.
Trading fees apply on every DEX trade: Taker 0.15%, Maker 0.03%. These fees are Starzip's protocol revenue and are not distributed to the issuing store.
DEX Architecture
Starzip uses a hybrid architecture combining an off-chain order book with on-chain settlement.
| Layer | Role |
|---|---|
| Off-chain Order Book | Matching, price discovery, low-latency execution |
| On-chain Settlement Contract | Trade settlement and trading fee accrual as Starzip protocol revenue |
This hybrid model delivers CEX-level speed and UX while maintaining on-chain settlement transparency.
User Rewards
Starzip automatically distributes Store Token rewards to users for on-chain activities including purchases, reviews, and referrals. Distributions are executed on-chain without manual intervention.
On-Chain Payment
Store Tokens serve as a loyalty settlement instrument within the Starzip ecosystem. They are not a replacement for cash. Users can swap Store Tokens for USDT on the DEX at any time, providing a liquid exit path.
Primary Benefits for Businesses
| Benefit | Description |
|---|---|
| Token Sale | 10% of the supply is sold to users, and the sale proceeds become market liquidity after a 5% listing fee. The owner allocation (88%) is released to the owner monthly as the owner's own tokens, based on monthly revenue proof. |
| Customer Retention | Token-based loyalty and membership rewards incentivize repeat visits and community participation. |
| Card Fee Savings | Token-denominated loyalty settlements reduce reliance on card payment networks for in-store reward redemption. |
| DEX Liquidity | Your Store Token trades continuously on the DEX, giving holders a liquid market. Trading fees (Taker 0.15% / Maker 0.03%) are Starzip's protocol revenue, not shared with the store. |
Store Tokens and STAR are utility tokens. They are not securities, equity, or investment contracts, and they confer no ownership, dividends, revenue share, or guaranteed returns.
