Core Technical Capabilities
Our NEAR shard-powered PoS integration delivers enterprise-grade performance, security, and developer experience. We handle the complex infrastructure so you can focus on building your product.
Shard-Agnostic Smart Contracts
Deploy and manage contracts across NEAR's dynamic shards with a single interface. We handle shard communication and state synchronization, eliminating cross-shard complexity for your dApp.
High-Throughput Validator Infrastructure
Run dedicated, geo-distributed validator nodes with 99.9% uptime SLA. Our infrastructure is optimized for NEAR's Nightshade sharding, ensuring maximum block production and network participation.
Secure Staking & Delegation Engine
White-label staking interfaces and secure delegation smart contracts. Built with formal verification and audited by leading security firms to protect user funds and ensure protocol compliance.
Real-Time Chain Analytics & Monitoring
Comprehensive dashboards for tracking shard performance, validator health, and economic metrics. Get alerts for slashing risks, performance degradation, and network upgrades.
Gas Optimization & Cost Management
Proprietary tooling to analyze and optimize gas consumption across shards. Reduce your dApp's operating costs by up to 40% with our transaction bundling and state access patterns.
Business Outcomes for Retail & E-commerce
Our NEAR-powered POS integration delivers concrete improvements to your bottom line, from transaction speed to customer loyalty.
Sub-Second Transaction Finality
Process payments with 1-2 second finality using NEAR's Nightshade sharding, eliminating checkout friction and abandoned carts.
Unified Loyalty & Payments
Deploy tokenized loyalty programs directly within the payment flow. Reward customers with branded tokens that can be spent or traded instantly.
Automated Supply Chain Settlement
Trigger instant, transparent payments to suppliers upon inventory scan at the POS. Reduce reconciliation from days to minutes.
Provably Fair Promotions
Run on-chain flash sales, discounts, and raffles with verifiable randomness. Build trust and eliminate disputes over promotion fairness.
Cross-Border Expansion Ready
Accept stablecoin payments from global customers without FX fees or multi-day settlement delays. Open new markets instantly.
Reduced Fraud & Chargebacks
Leverage immutable transaction records and smart contract logic to drastically reduce fraudulent disputes and associated operational costs.
NEAR Sharded POS vs. Traditional Payment Rails
A direct comparison of key performance, cost, and operational metrics between a NEAR Protocol shard-powered point-of-sale system and traditional card payment rails.
| Feature | NEAR Shard-Powered POS | Traditional Card Rails (Visa/Mastercard) |
|---|---|---|
Transaction Finality | < 2 seconds | 1-3 business days |
Settlement Speed | Real-time (on-chain) | Batch processing (daily) |
Average Transaction Fee | $0.01 - $0.10 | 1.5% - 3.5% + $0.30 |
Peak Throughput (TPS) | 100,000+ (horizontally scalable) | ~65,000 (centralized limit) |
Chargeback & Fraud Risk | Near-zero (irreversible settlement) | High (manual disputes, fraud liability) |
Cross-Border Fees | Negligible (native multi-chain) | 3-5% + FX markup |
Developer Integration | Open APIs, smart contract composability | Proprietary, gated APIs |
Time to First Payout | Instant (merchant-controlled wallet) | 2-7 days (bank transfer) |
Infrastructure Cost | Predictable gas fees | Interchange fees, processor markups, monthly minimums |
Regulatory Compliance | Programmable (on-chain KYT/AML) | Manual, third-party dependent |
Our Integration Methodology
Our battle-tested, four-phase methodology ensures your NEAR shard-powered PoS integration is delivered on time, on budget, and with enterprise-grade security. We focus on delivering tangible business outcomes, not just technical implementation.
Architecture & Design Review
We conduct a deep-dive analysis of your existing PoS system and design a shard-aware architecture. This includes defining shard boundaries, cross-shard communication protocols, and data consistency models to maximize NEAR's scalability for your specific use case.
Core Smart Contract Development
Our team builds and audits the core on-chain logic for your PoS system using Rust. We implement shard-specific contracts for staking, delegation, rewards distribution, and slashing, ensuring they are optimized for NEAR's gas model and shard architecture.
Shard-Aware Backend Integration
We develop the off-chain indexers, oracles, and relay services that bridge your existing infrastructure with the NEAR blockchain. This layer handles complex cross-shard queries, event listening, and state synchronization with sub-second latency.
Security Audit & Mainnet Deployment
Every integration undergoes a rigorous multi-stage security review, including internal audits and optional third-party verification. We then manage the phased mainnet deployment, including shard configuration, contract migration, and monitoring setup.
Smart Contract Development
Secure, production-ready smart contracts built for scale and compliance.
We architect and deploy custom smart contracts on EVM and Solana chains, from ERC-20 tokens to complex DeFi primitives. Our contracts are built with Solidity 0.8+ or Rust, leveraging OpenZeppelin libraries and security-first design patterns.
Deliver a battle-tested, gas-optimized contract suite in 2-4 weeks, backed by a comprehensive audit report.
- Security-First Development: Formal verification, automated testing, and third-party audits from firms like CertiK or Quantstamp.
- Full Lifecycle Support: Development, deployment, monitoring, and upgrade management via Transparent Proxies.
- Compliance Ready: Built-in support for
ERC-1400(security tokens),ERC-721A(gas-efficient NFTs), and regulatory hooks.
Frequently Asked Questions
Get clear answers on timelines, costs, and technical specifics for integrating your project with NEAR's sharded Proof-of-Stake network.
A standard integration for a new dApp or protocol takes 2-4 weeks from kickoff to mainnet deployment. This includes architecture design, smart contract development, shard-aware state management, and rigorous testing. Migrating an existing application from another chain typically adds 1-2 weeks for code adaptation and data migration planning.
