Pay.sh Provenance Labels

Treebeard Research·Catalog snapshot: May 7, 2026·Source: pay.sh registry

All 72 providers in the Pay.sh catalog, classified under Treebeard's provenance taxonomy. The Pay.sh catalog itself does not distinguish between first-party endpoints, authorized gateways, and third-party wrappers. The Bankless coverage of Pay.sh (May 2026) named this gap explicitly. This page is the gap, filled.

Taxonomy

  • Tier A (First-party native). The provider operates the service. Provenance is direct.
  • Tier B (Authorized gateway). Solana Foundation operates a documented gateway to the underlying provider's API per the Pay.sh design.
  • Tier C (Aggregator product). A third party aggregates multiple underlying APIs into a branded product. Authorization status of each underlying API is unverified.
  • Tier D (Pass-through wrapper). A third party wraps a single named upstream provider. Authorization status with the upstream is unverified.

Method notes

Tier A is assigned where the provider FQN matches a known native operator. Tier B is assigned for the Solana Foundation gateway pattern (solana-foundation/google/* and solana-foundation/alibaba/*), which are documented authorized integrations per the Pay.sh design and the underlying provider partnerships referenced in the Bankless coverage. Tier C is assigned for branded-aggregator products that combine multiple underlying APIs (e.g., StableCrypto bundling CoinGecko, DefiLlama, Alchemy, and Etherscan into a single paid surface). Tier D is assigned for single-API pass-through wrappers.

Important caveat. Tier C and Tier D classify by structure, not by confirmed authorization. A Tier C or Tier D classification does not assert that a wrapper is unauthorized. It asserts that the authorization with the upstream provider is not visible from the public Pay.sh catalog and has not been independently verified by Treebeard at this snapshot. Wrapper operators with documented partnerships should be reclassified upon evidence.

Catalog snapshot taken from the public Pay.sh registry on May 7, 2026. Reproduction is straightforward: the registry returns a JSON with 72 provider entries; the classification logic above is a few lines of code.

Companion essay: Pay.sh and the provenance gap. Methodology context: the seven signal categories in our v4.0 whitepaper at /methodology/whitepaper include Community and Ecosystem and Security Posture, both of which contribute to provenance assessment in the Treebeard composite.
