Abstract

The proposed solution offers an alternative way to our current retail shopping of fuel fees. It can be applied to any retail shopping process but this phase of the project is considered an initiation of upcoming. The next phases of the project, include full integration with smart cars in order to handle all procedures automatically. In the traditional way, when you buy some gas from a station with your credit card, the station owner pays some fee to his bank and it has to wait for some time to be able to get that money. You as an individual have to expose your identity so they can track your shopping habits and follow your expenses. Sometimes they may offer some loyalty discounts or gifts but with really ridiculous rates. Our system offers a digital payment system based on the Ethereum blockchain. It has its own token called TRANT (Transport Token) and by this token, any client with a digital wallet (Metamask) is able to pay their gas fees without exposing their real identity -only their wallet address-, and get some rewards in terms of TRANT for their loyalties and using our DEX (Decentralized Exchange) exchange them into the ether which can be converted into real fiat money easily. On the other hand, the proposed solution also has some advantages for the other party in this equation such as gas station owners, they immediately get their money at that very first moment without any remittance.
Önerilen çözüm, geleneksel olarak kullanılan perakende benzin satışına bir alternatif olarak geliştirilmiştir. Geleneksel yöntemde kredi kartınızla benzin aldığınızda benzin istasyonu bankaya bir miktar ödeme yapar ve paranın hesabına geçmesi için bir süre bekler. Alışveriş alışkanlıklarınızı ve harcamalarınızı takip edebilsinler diye gerçek kimliğinizi başkalarıyla paylaşmak zorunda kalırsınız. Bazen bunu kampanya üyelik kartları ile küçükk hediyeler ve indirimler vererek yaparlar. Ö nerilen dijital ödeme sistemi Ethereum blokzinciri tabanlı bir sistemdir. TRANT adı verilen kendi token’ını kullanır ve bu token aracılığı ile herhangi bir kullanıcı bir sanal cüzdan yardımı ile, kimliğini açığa çıkarmasına gerek kalmadan yakıt ödemelerini yapar. Bireysel kullanıcılarımız servisi kullandıkları için, yine TRANT cinsinden bir ödül kazanırlar ve bu TRANT token web sayfamızdaki merkeziyetsiz borsa aracılığı ile ether’e dönüştürülebilir. Ether tüm borsalarda işlem gören ve kolayca gerçek paralara dönüştürülebilen bir kripto para birimidir. Benzin istasyonu sahiplerine sağlanan önemli avantajlarsa; para hesaplarına hemen geçer ve herhangi bir kesinti ücreti ödemezler.
