Get paid the second the GPU does.
Same transaction, same second. No invoice cycle, no payout minimum, no processor — and no support ticket deciding whether you can withdraw.
Live on Solana mainnet — payouts are real USDC.
The money mechanics, in numbers
| nuza | Vast.ai | RunPod | |
|---|---|---|---|
| You get paid | at settlement — instantly | weekly invoice, paid the following Friday | monthly cycle |
| Payout minimum | none | $20 | varies |
| Payout rail | USDC to your wallet | PayPal / Wise / Stripe | bank / processor |
| Marketplace fee | 0% — published, on-chain ↗ | unpublished renter-side surcharge | unpublished split |
| Proof | every settlement is a public transaction | dashboard | dashboard |
Competitor terms per their public docs, July 2026: Vast.ai ↗ · RunPod ↗. Ours you can check on the explorer: the settlement program enforces host + fee + refund == deposit on every rental, so the split can never quietly change.
What your rig could earn
Gross = GPUs × price × hours × occupancy. Occupancy is the number that actually decides your month — see the real numbers below before picking a price.
We publish the settled earnings of our own 8× RTX PRO 6000 rig — revenue, occupancy at each price we tested, and measured wall power. Read the rig report →
How it works
- One Python agent on your Linux rig — it enrolls with a wallet-ownership proof, lists your GPUs on the board, and provisions an isolated container per rental.
- You set the price and the max contract length; edit either live from your host console.
- Renters prepay into escrow before the container starts — you never run compute for money that isn't already locked.
- At stop, settlement pays your wallet for metered seconds.

Already hosting on Vast or RunPod?
Keep hosting there — you're adding a second bidder for your idle hours, not switching platforms. Two caveats the installer docs walk you through:
- The agent tracks its own rentals per GPU — if the other platform rents the machine, pause your nuza listing (or price above your floor there). Nothing stops two platforms from selling the same silicon.
- Vast's docker shim needs one extra install flag.
