Transfer Settlement Network

The settlement layer behind TrustLink Pay on Solana.

TrustLink Pay is built on the Transfer Settlement Network — a decentralized payment execution layer for Solana where Payment Intents, Escrow Holds, Cranker execution, and Settlement Proofs coordinate private and verifiable payments.

TSN architecture

Payment Intent → Escrow Hold → Cranker Execution → Settlement Proof

How TSN works

1

Payment Intent

A sender creates a cryptographically signed intent that defines the amount, recipient, and settlement constraints.

2

Funding authorization

The sender authorizes the payment intent and its settlement constraints while TSN coordinates the work.

3

Cranker Execution

Independent operators called Crankers validate eligible intents, submit settlement work, and earn protocol-defined rewards.

4

Settlement Proof

TSN records authorization and settlement receipts so completed work can be audited and verified.

Who participates

Senders

Create payment intents and authorize settlement using identity-first flows.

Recipients

Receive funds through TIN and ZK-PRU protected routing without exposing wallet addresses.

Crankers

Execute settlement work and earn fees for keeping the network live.

TSN coordinators

Coordinate eligible settlement work and receive protocol-defined rewards. TSN does not require a liquidity-provider protocol layer.
