Registering Terra as a "Payto Payment Target Type"

Hi fellow Terrans :wave:

Is it correct that terra-js currently is the only way to open a terra payment form on a website? (assuming the extension is correctly installed)

I’m asking because I was looking for some easier way, something like the recently (2020) published payto URI scheme listed here: RFC 8905 - The 'payto' URI Scheme for Payments

payto://terra/terra1kjv0dnfww9dklsmtwj73svvm9q8hsvfl060gmw?receiver-name=Alice&amount=UST:100

would be too awesome wouldn’t it? What do you think about that?


from the rfc:

This document is not an Internet Standards Track specification; it is published for informational purposes.

The GNUnet Assigned Numbers Authority [GANA] operates the “Payto Payment Target Types” registry to track the information for each payment target type.

Their git repo can be found here and includes all steps required to list something like Terra.money in the POLICY File, the current projects are listed in the registry.rec File

Would anybody from the Terra Team be willing to contact the payto-registry author to get this published?


by the way: The author of the RFC recently co-published this paper - which unfortunately seems not aware of terra yet. The CBDC projects in Switzerland are just around the corner (negative interest is the new normal even for retails customers > 200k$…)
So it would be very nice if the $CHT adoption would grow even faster also without an Anchor Integration yet :wink:

looking forward to your feedbacks & thanks for the mindblowing work so far :heart_eyes: :full_moon:

Hey this is great! does it make sense to make a pull request against the terra.js repo?
