Abstract
PingPaid, formulated to solve the problems that plague the
trustless transfer of assets, is a unique payment solution
that will revolutionize the way we transact, by bringing
practicality and security to “Trade and Value” transactions.
PingPaid is an easy to use, working platform and protocol
that allows parties to secure and transact payment for goods
and services using a secured and advanced modular control
program. We put power and ease in your control as
merchant and consumer. You can define terms, agree to
terms, and use PingPaid’s unique technologies to accept the
terms defined. PingPaid takes “Smart Contracts” to the next
level. We have focused on simplicity and effectiveness; this
is the future of asset transactions using blockchain.
Blockchain is a revolutionary technology that will find itself
in so many different applications in our lives. Blockchain
technology has already begun to make an unmatched
impact on the digital age; no technology holds a greater
potential for humanity. PingPaid is capitalizing on this and
positioning ourselves as the premier choice for conducting
various forms of transactions on the blockchain. Value
transfer is the primary application of the Blockchain.
Even with its growth potential, there is a lot more work to do in this space.
Our Philosophy
We want you to be able to rent your property, to create
customizable and personal contracts and not have to worry
about things going wrong or not receiving your service or
being paid. We have effectively created and executed our
platform and will continue to expand our unique platform
that allows value to be transacted using cryptocurrency
assets. There are many applications for PingPaid, and we
have working services that display the use for the unique
combination of blockchain and decentralized escrow.
We have implemented various strategies and concepts,
including the unique use of QR codes, secure cryptography
in our security systems, escrow agreements, and the
Ethereum Smart Contract platform. We want to introduce
the power of Blockchain to the entire world and bring to you
the best transactional platform and protocol – PingPaid.

Introduction
What happened when banks lost the money you entrusted
them with during the global economic crisis of 2008? A
tumultuous stock market crash, a breached banking system
& a mortgage meltdown all were conducive to a ruinous
recession. People asked for an unbounded system- no central
control. Many wanted solutions to protect themselves against
any future financial crisis that may occur. The collapse of trust
between banks amid soaring inter-bank lending rates was the
epicenter of the crisis a decade ago and financial market
volatility soared to record highs amid fears for the stability of
the banking system at large. The answer came in 2008,
blockchain technology. The core of Bitcoin and blockchain
technology bestows trust through a decentralized protocol
that eradicates intermediaries. Blockchain is a decentralized
public ledger, the technological base for Bitcoin, Ethereum &
all cryptocurrencies alike.
Smart Contracts introduced by the Ethereum network is a
way to perform computer operations in a decentralized
manner. Smart Contracts employ an innovative solution to
many real world applications. Smart contracts use
algorithms to connect parties. As an integral element behind
the dynamic use of the PingPaid token, Smart Contracts
joined with backend algorithms create a payment and
procurement protocol and platform for cryptocurrencies.
PingPaid token is an Ethereum based token. According to
Forbes, ‘investment banks alone could save up to $12 billion
per year by adopting blockchain technology and Smart
Contracts, effectively a program code that automatically
performs certain actions when pre-defined conditions
occur.’

PingPaid BETATM
PingPaid utilizes many unique features on its platform to
get you up and running. PingPaid Beta ™ allows you to rent
to guests and have guests pay by using cryptocurrency,
remit services, sell real world things like food and items, and
more using the power of the PingPaid protocol.
Bill (owner/host) lists his home on the PingPaid platform as a
rental. Bill specifies availability, and he can change these
dates anytime. When listing his rental, Bill can specify which
cryptocurrencies he will accept for booking. Bill will specify
whether he will require release of escrow funds upon first
Tag-and-Query (which would be upon guest’s arrival), or if
he will agree to have the funds released after the guest’s
stay has completed, based off of what other items or
amenities the guest has added to their stay using PingPaid
protocol and platform. This complex process happens
seamlessly using the PingPaid platform and protocol.
Using PingPaid, Bill can offer optional services to compliment
the guests stay, purchased with cryptocurrency. This allows
for seamless exchange of assets, and integrated
verticals for flexibly transacting real assets. PingPaid will
have countless applications, and we plan to offer an
Application Programming Interface (API) for open source
and private development on our platform. We want Smart
Contracts and secure payments to go hand in hand. The core
function of PingPaid allows you to create digital and live
invoices scanned with our unique QR code reader. Once
scanned, the client confirms their secured cryptocurrency
credentials for the releasing of assets. Some other
parameters are involved in this process.
The PingPaid protocol allows the processing of secured
transactions; both the merchant and client must hold
PingPaid tokens on the platform. This provides value for the
PingPaid token holders as it Is a vital module needed to use
the platform. As a merchant or client, you can create secure,
instant live invoices that require specific conditions for an
asset’s release. We have created PingPaid SettleUp ™ to be
decentralized and trustless, using Smart Contracts to
validate conditions of the agreement.
P a g e | 6
Tag-and-Querying™
PingPaid functions on its core technology, the Tag-and-
Querying™ mechanism. We believe the blockchain
revolution does not have to be complicated, and asset
transfer is the best application for the Blockchain. Using our
mobile and desktop systems, the Tag-and-Querying™
allows merchants, property owners (hosts), consumers and
clients to have instant and secured asset transfers.
We want to put the power of decentralized trust in your
hands. After creating quotes, clients and hosts can scan a
unique QR code that only you as a merchant would be able
to provide on your end. In the case of hosting, you will reveal
this QR code once the guest arrives at the property. This
unique technology connects the host/merchant with the
guest/client.
Itemize everything, from restaurant menu selections to
vehicle sales, with pre-created Smart Contracts tailored to
specific use-cases.
Create unique conditions to release funds by enabling
escrow, and using unique QR Tag and Querying technology
provided by PingPaid.
Track, create, and manage itemized receipts for processing
using PingPaid, tailoring them to specific users or a
generalized consumer base.
Application Program Interface (API) is in development to
allow third parties to use PingPaid to create unique and
powerful smart contracts to revolutionize value exchange
on the Blockchain.

Token Mechanics & Value
PingPaid is a platform, powered by its token of the same
name. The PingPaid token (an ER20 Ethereum-based token)
will be used to pay the fees on the PingPaid platform.
PingPaid will allow asset transfer and security in various
different cryptocurrency assets. The roadmap will elaborate
how PingPaid will progress as a platform and show plans of
the platform and protocol. There are 75 million PingPaid
tokens. 60 million tokens are available in an ICO to invest in
and grow the platform. The ICO begins on July 1 2018.
Token Economics
PingPaid token holders pay NO FEES to use the PingPaid
platform and must use the PingPaid token on the
PingPaid platform in order to get this Benefit.
The PingPaid Clearing Cycle ensures that the PPD ecosystem propels the PingPaid token usage, through the platform and protocol. The PingPaid Clearing Cycle incentivizes the PingPaid token in the token economics, and provides the mechanism to utilize other cryptocurrencies without limiting the use of other assets. This encourages global cryptocurrency usage in the mainstream. The PingPaid token powers the platform, protocol, discount and loyalty programs.
P a g e | 9
PingPaid Clearing Cycle
The PingPaid clearing cycle is a mechanism used in the
PingPaid token economics. The PingPaid clearing cycle is
what happens when a consumer uses the PingPaid platform
or protocol to complete a transaction. If the consumer uses
PPD tokens to complete the transaction, the clearing cycle is
completed. If a non-PPD token is used, the algorithm
automatically demands and deduces a fee of the
cryptocurrency used to complete the transaction from the
client’s account. The system automatically allocates a
certain percentage of the collected fees towards providing
discounts to accounts holding PPD (merchant or client). The discounts continue progressively as the system collects more and more fees. The discount levels increase respectively. The discounts are applied in all PingPaid PPD account holders after a certain threshold of collected amounts have been reached. We have many plans for the discount program. This can translate to being redeemable assets in the PingPaid token ecosystem. Theoretically, this allows PPD holders to enjoy massive benefits in the PingPaid ecosystem. Both merchants and clients are eligible to participate on the virtue of having a PingPaid account and being PingPaid token holders.
