Hey everyone,

I built ZeroPay, an open-source, self-hosted crypto payment gateway that lets you accept stablecoin payments and recurring subscriptions directly through smart contracts.

The goal is to bring the simplicity of Stripe to crypto — without intermediaries, custodians, or lock-ins. You can deploy it yourself, connect it to your backend, and start receiving USDC/USDT/DAI payments in minutes.
