Utoken merges traditional finance with blockchain to enable payment for services like data, airtime, and utilities using stablecoins without KYC, off-ramping fees, or delays.

Introduction

The adoption of cryptocurrencies like USDC for payment for services and goods has shown us how stablecoins could potentially transform payments and cross-border remittances. While the underlying technology is very promising, the adoption rate is still very low, limited to trading and DeFi applications. With Utoken, we are merging traditional finance with blockchain technology to drive more adoption.

HOW IT WORKS

The Utoken App provides a simple interface for users to pay for airtime, data subscriptions, cable TV, etc. using stablecoins like USDC. On launching the app, users can link any supported wallets in the Ecosystem using WalletConnect. After connecting a wallet, a user can access any available services, follow the prompt, and sign a transaction request sent from the app to the wallet. The illustration below shows the user flow for using the application.
