Problem Statement

Peer-to-peer payment methods are too complicated for casual transactions in a cross-border setting. They put all the burden on the person sending the payment. This includes collecting and checking payment details such as account numbers, personal data, crypto addresses, and so on. Senders need to figure out payment routes, often involving multiple steps with on-/off ramps or third-party remittance services. This whole process easily takes up 10-20 minutes (and much longer if it involves cross-chain or on-ramp steps).

Solution

Handl turns social media usernames into payment handles and multi-chain wallets with the ability to receive card payments and crypto. This enables global peer-to-peer payments to social media usernames without the exchange of transfer details, knowledge about payment routing, or fluency in crypto.

Example

Paying anyone to their social media username is straightforward and doesn't require any back-and-forth communication.
