Let customers send and receive money at low-cost, in any currency 24/7.

Our end-to-end, enterprise-grade solution for UMA unlocks global payments for your customers.

UMAs are like email addresses but for money. The UMA standard is open source, global and enables anyone to send and receive money 24/7 in any fiat or cryptocurrency using their favorite wallet, exchange, or bank.

The UMA standard combines human-readable Lightning Addresses with real-time, global payment rails. It extends the capabilities of Lightning and LNURL to add support for compliance and fiat currency FX.
