Introduction: Welcome to Gasless Corporate Treasury
StableBonds combines institutional security, high-yield stablecoin vaults, and automated execution rails on the Arc network. This step-by-step guide is designed to help corporate treasury managers, CFOs, and finance operators set up their accounts, fund their balances, and schedule their first programmatic payout in less than 10 minutes.
With StableBonds, you do not need any cryptocurrency to pay for gas. All transaction fees are sponsored or paid directly using native USDC.
Step 1: Sign In Using a Gasless Smart Account
StableBonds supports both standard EOA Web3 wallets (like MetaMask, Coinbase Wallet, or Rabby) and Circle Smart Accounts (SCA).
For the most secure and streamlined corporate experience, we recommend registering a Smart Account:
1. Click Sign In in the top navigation bar.
2. Choose Register New Passkey.
3. Create a unique username representing your company (e.g., acme_treasury).
4. Complete your device's biometric authentication (Windows Hello, FaceID, or TouchID).
5. Your Circle Smart Account is created instantly and mapped securely on-chain.
Note: You can also use Email OTP Sign-In if your corporate device does not support biometric passkeys.

Step 2: Funding Your Unified Treasury Wallet
Once connected, navigate to the Unified Balance tab. You will see your unique wallet deposit address.
To fund your treasury, you have two options:
Option A: Bridge USDC Natively via CCTP
If you have corporate USDC sitting on Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum, or Polygon:
1. Copy your StableBonds wallet address.
2. Use a CCTP-supported bridge or interface to transfer the USDC to your Arc network address.
3. The funds will arrive and settle on Arc with sub-second finality.
Option B: Arc Testnet Faucet (For Sandbox Evaluation)
If you are evaluating the platform in our sandbox environment:
1. Copy your wallet address.
2. Click the link to faucet.circle.com.
3. Select USDC, choose the Arc Testnet network, input your wallet address, and request test tokens.
4. Your balance will update in the dashboard in real time.
Step 3: Setting Up a Scheduled Vendor Payment
With your USDC balance loaded, you can now schedule your first automated payment:
Schedule Invoice
CFO inputs invoice amount & recipient wallet.
Lock Capital
Principal is secured in the smart vault.
Earn 5% APY
Capital compounds in the Senior tranche.
Maturity Date
Contract automated trigger executes.
Settle Invoice
Recipient receives exact USDC payment.
Return Yield
CFO recaptures accrued interest.
1. Navigate to the New Payment tab.
2. Configure Payout Details:
- Principal Amount: The exact invoice amount due to the vendor.
- Maturity Term: Choose the lock period matching your invoice timeline (e.g., 30, 60, 90, 180, or 365 days).
- Tranche Selection: Choose Senior for fully-protected principal or Junior to maximize yields.
- Supplier Wallet Address: The destination wallet of your vendor.
Step 4: Monitoring Your Positions and Early Exit Controls
At any time, you can view your active payout positions inside the Maturity Calendar tab:
- Compounding Yield: Monitor exactly how much USDC interest your locked payments have accrued.
- On-Time Execution: View the remaining time until automated contract settlement.
- Early Exit Protocol: If your supplier requires payment ahead of schedule due to changing contract parameters, you can execute an Early Exit.
- Note: Early exits incur a 2.0% penalty, which is distributed as a premium bonus to other active investors in the yield pool. Use early exits only when absolutely necessary.
