POWERED BY CIRCLE & USDC ON ARC

Get paid the moment someone supports you

ArcTip gives you one tip link to share. Your fans send USDC, it lands in your wallet in about a second — no address to copy, no gas token to buy first.

HOW IT WORKS

A tip link, not a wallet tutorial

No addresses to copy, no gas token to buy first. One link, one amount, one confirmation.

01

Create your page

Claim a handle in the app — no code, live in under a minute.

02

Share the link

In your bio, under your stream, or as the QR code we generate for you.

03

A fan picks an amount

1, 5, 10 USDC, or any custom amount.

04

It lands in about a second

Arc confirms the payment almost instantly, in USDC from start to finish.

05

You keep 99%

Straight to your wallet in USDC, with nothing to set up. Your fan's note comes attached if they left one.

Both sides of that, recorded against the deployed contract on Arc testnet. Nothing here is a mockup: the handle was registered and the tip was paid while the screen was being captured, and each clip carries its transaction.

Screen recording of the ArcTip app. A wallet connects and its address appears in the header. The handle juno is typed into the claim field. The button moves through confirming and waiting for confirmation, then reports that the handle is taken. The page becomes a dashboard with the tip link, a share card carrying the handle and a QR code.

A creator claims a page

Connect the wallet the money should land in, pick a handle, confirm once. The share card and the QR are drawn in the browser from the handle itself.

Screen recording of an ArcTip tip page. An amount of 1 USDC is selected and a short note is typed, with a byte counter under the field. A wallet connects and its USDC balance appears. The tip is sent, a receipt appears with a link to the block explorer, and the supporter shows up on the wall below with their note.

A fan sends a tip

An amount, an optional note, one confirmation. The wall underneath is read back from the Tipped events — nothing is issued, awarded or stored anywhere else.

THE CIRCLE STACK

Which parts, and where to check them

Four pieces of Circle infrastructure do real work here. Each row says what it does, and gives you something to verify rather than take on trust.

USDC as the gas asset

Live

Tips move as native msg.value transfers. The fan holds USDC, tips USDC and pays gas in USDC — no approval, no second token, no bridge before they can start.

Chain
arc-testnet · 5042002

ERC-4337 paymaster, funded by the fee

Live

A sponsored tip costs 0.0039 USDC in gas at the 21 gwei observed on Arc. The 1% fee on a 1 USDC tip is 0.01 — set to cover that and little else, so sponsorship pays for itself instead of running off a budget.

Modular Wallets — a passkey as the signer

Live

A passkey on the device becomes a smart account. No extension, no seed phrase, no app. Arc ships no P-256 precompile at 0x100 or 0x0b, so verifying a WebAuthn signature on-chain ourselves would be priced out of reach — Circle's account does it instead.

CCTP — arriving from another chain

Live on Arc

0x3600…0000 is an ERC-20 view of the native balance — the same money at two scales, 18 decimals native and 6 through the ERC-20. Bridged USDC therefore lands as spendable tip and spendable gas at once, with no wrapper contract and nothing of ours in the middle.

Wrapper needed
none

Every figure above was measured against Arc testnet, not estimated. The gas numbers come from a Hardhat run; the precompile and EntryPoint claims from eth_getCode against the live chain.

TRANSPARENT PRICING · 100% USDC

Simple, predictable USDC payouts

No custom tokens or speculative reward schemes — ArcTip settles everything transparently in USDC.

99% lands directly

The creator's share never touches an ArcTip balance. The contract splits the payment and pays the creator's wallet in the same transaction.

1%, capped in the contract

MAX_FEE_BPS is a constant: the fee can never be raised above 5%, by us or by anyone else. Every tip also carries the highest fee its sender agreed to, so a raise mid-flight reverts instead of overcharging.

No token, and none planned

Nothing to buy, hold, or stake. Tips are USDC, the fee is USDC, payouts are USDC. There is no ArcTip token and the contract has no mechanism to mint one.

Where the 1% goes

It exists to cover the gas ArcTip sponsors on behalf of fans, not to make a margin — a sponsored tip costs about 0.0039 USDC, and 1% of a 1 USDC tip is 0.01. The treasury address is in the deployment record and readable on-chain.

ROADMAP

Three phases, paced to Arc

Phase 1 · Testnet

Prove it works

The app is live on Arc testnet. First creators onboarded, and public proof that a tip lands in about a second.

Phase 2 · Mainnet

Land on mainnet

Arc mainnet opens 16 September 2026. Sponsored gas and passkey wallets ship with it, so a fan needs neither a wallet extension nor a gas balance to tip.

Phase 3 · Scale

Fit into the workflow

OBS overlay for streamers, live tip alerts, a Discord bot for communities.

Claim your handle before someone else does

The app is live on Arc testnet. Claim a handle, share your link, and send yourself a test tip — about two minutes, and handles can't be reassigned.
