Overview

Zebec provides a programmable cash-flow protocol on Solana that enables real-time, continuous streams of payments and financial transactions for use cases such as payroll and investments. Its initial application, Zebec Pay, is a tax-compliant, on-chain payroll system that lets employees be paid by the second in USDC or other stablecoins and immediately use their funds. The protocol supports a variety of financial flows and is already attracting ecosystem activity—more than 250 projects are building on Zebec shortly after launch. Led by founder Sam Thapaliya, the company plans to use new capital to continue scaling its DeFi payment solution. The article does not report revenue or user-count metrics beyond the number of projects building on the protocol. Zebec Protocol launched on Solana mainnet as a programmable cash-flow protocol that enables continuous, by-the-second streams of payments and financial transactions. Its first application, Zebec Payroll, is a low-fee, tax-compliant on-chain payroll solution that can pay employees every second in USDC or other stablecoins. The platform allows automated dollar-cost-averaging, programmable investments and yield-farming, and allocation to compliant crypto IRA and 401(k) accounts. Zebec also offers a free fiat on-ramp and off-ramp that lets users swap crypto to USD and transfer to bank accounts without fees. Streams can be established in minutes through the company’s application for a single Solana gas fee of a fraction of a cent. Zebec emphasizes moving money completely on-chain without intermediaries, delays or risks of non-payment and cites plans to enable cross-chain streaming in the future. The company was founded by Sam Thapaliya, who positioned the product as giving users greater autonomy over their money.
