Problem
Cryptocurrency holders face significant friction when trying to use their digital assets for everyday purchases, as most merchants and payment systems do not accept crypto directly. Users are forced to navigate complex exchange processes or rely on limited crypto-accepting merchants, which restricts the practical utility of their holdings.

UPay provides an integrated payment platform that bridges the gap between cryptocurrency and traditional finance. The platform enables users to deposit Bitcoin, Ethereum, or Tether and immediately access a UPay Card for spending at any merchant that accepts standard card payments, with instant crypto-to-fiat conversion happening at the point of sale. Beyond card payments, UPay supports global money transfers with instant delivery and ATM withdrawals across multiple countries. The platform also offers virtual and physical card options that integrate with Apple Pay and Google Pay, making crypto spending as seamless as using a traditional bank card. UPay reports $90 million in transaction volume and over 130 partner relationships, with 320K+ cards issued.
