PayID

It's like an email address for payments

9 followers

PayID is a protocol that connects siloed payment networks through a universal address. A PayID (e.g. alice$example.com) can map to the URL https://example.com/alice and resolve to Alice's address on an underlying payment network (e.g. bank or blockchain).

Hi Product Hunt! We're super excited to announce the launch of PayID today. PayID is an email-like payment identifier (user$domain.com) that can map to any bank account, credit card, wallet or crypto address using open standards such as HTTPS and DNS. Similar to how simple web domains map to complex IP addresses, we believe that simple PayIDs should map to complex account addresses. PayID is an open protocol standard that has been designed to be flexible, extensible, and easy to deploy for developers. PayID is free to use for everyone, and simplifies the payment experience to send/receive money with a single payment address. Check out payid.org to learn more. P.S. We're also hosting a virtual PayID Developer Conference on June 25th at 9:00am PST, and invite developers to come discover ways in which to build their apps using PayID: https://ripple.com/lp/payid-dev-...

This is very cool! So is that possible to link PayID with blockchain domains / ID like ENS, Unstoppable Domains)?
Warren Paul Anderson
@jun_gong Yes, very possible. In fact Unstoppable Domains plans to support PayID: https://twitter.com/unstoppablew...

In India there is a platform called UPI doing same. It's there since 2016.

@sandydamy UPI is great for domestic payments in India. We believe PayID is like a UPI for the rest of the world, and can also help the rest of the world connect to UPI.

Worth a look at this too - https://payid.com.au/. Similar concept has been integrated into 4 major Aussie banks already.

@fredmeng Is there something similar for countries outside of AUS?
