How It Works

Free storefront. Your own gateway. Receipts that hold up.

Vendors keep 100% of sales and control their own checkout. TerraVault never touches the money.

For Buyers

Find, verify, and transact directly with the vendor.

1

Browse Marketplace

Search products or walk the Cannaverse to discover Mary-verified vendors, view tamper-proof COAs, and compare pricing.

2

Request Quote or Place Order

Submit an RFQ for custom pricing on bulk orders, or place an order directly through the vendor's storefront.

3

Pay the Vendor Directly

You pay the vendor through their own cannabis-friendly checkout (Aeropay, Hypur, NMI, Paybotic, Paysafe, ACH/wire, or crypto). TerraVault never touches the money.

4

Vendor Ships with Tracking

Track your shipment in real time. Every order includes carrier tracking so you know exactly where your product is.

5

Receipt That Holds Up

Order record, product, COA, license state at sale-time — all locked into a single receipt and Bitcoin-anchored via OpenTimestamps. Independently verifiable forever, no middleman required.

For Vendors

Apply, describe, upload, open — all free.

1

Apply — Mary Validates

Submit your license and COAs. Mary (TerraVault's compliance AI) validates against state cannabis regulators and lab databases before you go live.

2

Grok-Style Intent Chat

Once Mary approves, describe your brand voice, target audience, product line, and storefront vibe in conversation. Your intent drives the storefront AI.

3

Bulk Upload Products

Amazon-style bulk product upload with UPS-style shipping wizard. System auto-matches SKU, name, shipment, COA, and license per product.

4

AI Generates Your Storefront

Layout, copy, featured products, color theme — generated from your intent. Mary walks you through tweaks. Your subdomain goes live: <your-slug>.terravaulthq.com.

5

Wire Your Own Gateway

Mary walks you through wiring Aeropay, Hypur, NMI, Paybotic, or Paysafe — or pasting an external checkout URL. You control your cannabis-friendly checkout.

Knox Evidence Layer

Bitcoin-anchored, in one line each.

  • Every product listing — SKU, photos, inventory, price at listing time hashed into the chain.
  • Every COA — document hash locked the moment you upload it.
  • Every license state — license number + state-registry status at transaction time.
  • Every shipment — carrier tracking and ship-date hash.
  • Every transaction — order + product + license + COA + shipment bundled and anchored to Bitcoin via OpenTimestamps. Independently verifiable forever without TerraVault's cooperation.

How TerraVault Makes Money

The honest revenue stack.

If the storefronts are free and the payments flow through the vendor's own gateway, how does TerraVault survive? Three revenue layers, disclosed up front.

Tier 1 — Primary

Knox-Anchored Aggregate Market Data

Anonymized marketplace intelligence — what sells, where, at what price, across which categories — sold to brands, distributors, regulators, and AI companies. Every data point cryptographically provenance-tied. Evidentiary, not inferred.

Tier 2 — Growth

Premium Vendor Features

Boosted listings, multi-channel sync (Dutchie / Flowhub / POS), inventory automation, white-glove storefront customization, custom-domain SEO value retention. $99–$999/mo SaaS tier.

Tier 3 — Year 2+

Respectful Native Ads

Category-level sponsored placements, only after traffic justifies. Never banner display. Never ads inside a storefront body. Design discipline holds — ad real estate is the whitespace around storefronts, never the storefront itself.

Trust & Verification

Five tiers of vendor verification.

Every vendor on TerraVault earns a trust tier based on their documentation, transaction history, and compliance record. Higher tiers mean more visibility and buyer confidence.
