duly.finance is a payment engine and non-custodial escrow protocol built for software delivery. Its core use case is letting teams pre-fund GitHub Pull Requests or work orders with USDC; once contributors complete the work and the team approves it, they can claim payment from an escrow contract on Solana. It is not positioned as a traditional payment institution, but as a tool that helps teams, developers, and automated agents complete the on-chain workflow of “fund, ship, approve, settle.”
The platform only lists USDC on Solana as the payment and settlement method. After a team creates an order, the USDC is locked in an on-chain escrow vault tied to that specific order, meaning funds are already in place before work begins. Contributors submit PRs through GitHub and claim USDC after approval. duly does not store private keys, custody funds, or control user wallets. Users need to connect GitHub OAuth and a Solana wallet such as Phantom or Solflare. It also supports software agents in automatically performing routine actions such as creating orders and accepting tasks, with configurable signing permissions.
The fee model is straightforward: a 1% protocol fee is charged whenever escrowed funds are released. It is calculated on the total amount and deducted at settlement, with contributors receiving the net amount. The text describes settlement as immediate and irreversible, meaning that once approved, the on-chain release is instant and cannot be reversed, charged back, or recalled. On compliance, duly explicitly states that it is not a money transmitter, MSB, or financial institution. Users must be at least 18 years old, must not be located in regions comprehensively sanctioned by U.S. OFAC, the EU, or the UN, and are responsible for confirming that their local laws allow the use of crypto services.
The main advantages are that pre-funded escrow reduces payment uncertainty for developers, the 1% fee is simple and transparent, and the product is tightly integrated with the GitHub PR workflow. The downsides are that payment options are limited, and the system depends entirely on Solana, USDC, and GitHub. On-chain transactions are irreversible, and users must bear risks such as smart contract vulnerabilities, lost wallets, and network congestion. It is best suited to open-source projects, remote development teams, and crypto-native organizations for PR bounties, software delivery payments, and automated operational payouts.
The crawled text does not provide information on accessibility from mainland China, RMB funding, or local compliance, so its China access status is unknown. Given its reliance on crypto wallets, Solana, and USDC, Chinese users should pay particular attention to local regulations, wallet availability, and tax implications. Comparable options include Gitcoin, Drips, Request Finance, and Superfluid, as well as more traditional developer payment solutions such as GitHub Sponsors, Upwork, and Deel.
