CommissionRoad

Why CommissionRoad? ​

CommissionRoad exists to empower frontend developers, content creators, and protocol integrators to contribute to the web3 ecosystem on their own terms.

The Problem: Monetization is Hard ​

Traditionally, monetizing a crypto interface or tool has been difficult.

  • Token Tax: You launch a token, but it complicates your product and regulations.
  • Hardcoded Fees: You beg protocols to add a fee switch for you, or you fork their contracts (fracturing liquidity).
  • Donations: You rely on user goodwill, which is inconsistent.

The Solution: Permissionless Commissions ​

CommissionRoad introduces a Middleware Layer for monetization.

  1. Decoupled Fees: You don't need to fork a protocol to charge a fee. You just wrap the transaction in a commissionCall.
  2. Any Token: You can collect fees in ETH, USDC, or whatever token the user is transacting with (thanks to Permit2).
  3. Provable Revenue: Your CommissionRoad NFT tracks your earnings on-chain. This effectively tokenizes your project's cash flow.
  4. Atomic Execution: The user performs their desired action and pays you in the same transaction. If your fee isn't paid, the action doesn't happen.

Use Cases ​

  • Alternative Frontends: Build a better UI for Uniswap/Aave/OpenSea and charge a small convenience fee.
  • Curated Feeds: "Influencers" or experts can curate lists of tokens/NFTs and earn a commission when followers buy through their link.
  • Embedded Wallets: Wallets can monetize every transaction they facilitate without relying on "swap markup" hackery.
  • Protocol Extensions: Add new features (like auto-compounding) to existing protocols and monetize the service.
