How in-chat ZEC payments work
Payments run on the shielded ZEC wallet built into the app. No external wallet to connect.
Open a conversation
Start or open a chat with any contact in Zapp. Your conversations are end-to-end encrypted.
Tap the payment icon and select amount
Inside the chat thread, tap the ZEC payment button. Enter the amount you want to send from the wallet built into the app.
ZEC sent, inside the chat
The transaction completes without leaving the conversation. Your contact sees the payment in the thread. Shielded by default.
Privacy by design
- ✓End-to-end encrypted conversations
- ✓No phone number required to sign up
- ✓Shielded ZEC transactions by default: amount and recipient not on a public ledger
- ✓No message metadata sold or shared
Turn ZEC into local cash
The offramp is live in the beta today. Scan any UPI QR code or enter a UPI ID, and Zapp turns shielded ZEC into rupees on the spot. The swap runs through NEAR Intents and a verified peer on the P2P.me protocol settles the payment over UPI, secured by on-chain escrow.
No exchange account, no KYC, no paperwork. Every order runs through a fresh wallet, so the payout carries no link to your balance or history. Live in India (UPI), Brazil (PIX), and Indonesia (QRIS) today, with Argentina, Mexico, and Venezuela on the way.
