Implementation for REFI Projects: The Incubator Connection
For projects participating in Circularity Finance's 100 Day incubator program, REFI Net provides a ready-to-use infrastructure for managing value distribution that aligns with regenerative principles.
Integration Benefits for Incubated Projects
Incubated projects gain several specific advantages from integrating with REFI Net:
Turnkey Treasury Management: Ready-to-use infrastructure for managing project treasuries and distributing funds.
Philanthropic Alignment: Built-in mechanisms for aligning business operations with impact missions.
Technical Simplification: Complex distribution logic handled by existing, audited contracts rather than requiring custom development.
Governance Integration: Distribution templates can be connected to project governance systems for community-directed philanthropy.
Ecosystem Participation: Integration with the broader Circularity Finance ecosystem through standardized distribution protocols.
These benefits enable incubated projects to focus on their core innovation while still implementing sophisticated financial and impact models.
Implementation Process
Projects in the incubator can implement REFI Net through a structured process:
Distribution Strategy Design: Working with Circularity Finance advisors to design appropriate distribution strategies aligned with project goals.
Template Configuration: Setting up distribution templates that specify recipients, percentages, and conditions.
Integration Development: Implementing the technical integration between project applications and REFI Net contracts.
Testing in CIFI Playground: Using the CIFI Playground to test distribution configurations before mainnet deployment.
Community Validation: Presenting distribution strategies to the community for feedback and validation.
Gradual Activation: Implementing distribution in phases, starting with smaller percentages and increasing over time.
This structured approach ensures that philanthropic integration is thoughtfully designed and technically sound.
Per-Application Profit Management
One of the most powerful capabilities REFI Net offers incubated projects is the ability to manage profit distribution at the application level rather than just at the company level:
Granular Revenue Attribution: Revenue can be attributed to specific applications or service offerings rather than pooled at the company level.
Application-Specific Impact: Each application can support different philanthropic causes aligned with its specific purpose.
Performance-Based Distribution: Distribution percentages can adjust based on application performance metrics.
User-Directed Philanthropy: Users of specific applications can influence which causes receive support from that application's revenue.
Impact Specialization: Applications can develop recognized specializations in supporting particular types of impact.
This granular approach creates more direct connections between specific products or services and their social impact, enhancing both user engagement and impact effectiveness.
