Company profile
researched Aug 2026PIP is a Web3 payments platform offering a suite of products for sending, receiving and managing cryptocurrency payments online. It positions itself as a payment layer for crypto with a focus on micropayments, and states that its products are usable by anyone from unbanked individuals to Web3 businesses without registration β users connect a wallet and are paid directly to that wallet with no withdrawal process.
The product family is split between individual and business use. Individual-facing products include Social Pay, a Chrome browser extension that enables payments on Twitter, Twitch, Discord, Github and Reddit and anywhere online via 'PIP Tags' (human-readable substitutes for wallet addresses); PIP.ME, a customizable Web3 link-in-bio profile for tips, donations and content monetization that can display links, social accounts and NFTs and supports importing information from Linktree; and Peer, a mobile app for global money transfers. Business-facing products include a no-code Pay Button that can be customized and embedded on any website, Checkout for creating an online store and selling in crypto without a domain or website, Payment Links shareable by QR code, email, text or messaging apps, Invoice for issuing and managing crypto invoices, and a Point of Sale product listed in the site footer. A dashboard is used to set up and manage payments and is accessible on mobile.
The website states support for the top five blockchain networks with 35+ currencies, while its statistics banner cites 75+ supported currencies. Documentation announcements indicate integrations with BNB Chain, Polygon, Ethereum, Avalanche, Optimism and Base, plus MetaMask, Coinbase Wallet and Worldcoin.
Business model
PIP provides self-serve Web3 payment tools that individuals and businesses can use by connecting a crypto wallet, without registration. Funds settle on-chain directly to the user's own wallet, so no custody or withdrawal step is involved. The company's site describes individual usage as free of fees for accepting payments in multiple currencies and business usage as pay-as-you-go with no setup fees, monthly fees or hidden fees. A PIP token and a 'Reward Farming' program are referenced in the site footer and in the documentation's tokenomics section.
The sources do not describe explicit pricing beyond claims of zero fees for accepting payments as an individual and a pay-as-you-go model for businesses with no setup, monthly or hidden fees. A PIP token and Reward Farming program are part of the ecosystem, but the sources do not detail revenue streams.
Traction
PIP's website reports more than 500,000 users, 75+ supported currencies and over $600 million in payments processed.
Latest developments
The most recent releases listed in PIP documentation are version 2.0 (Optimism Network and Worldcoin) and version 2.1 (Base network integration). The website, bearing a 2025 copyright, advertises the Peer mobile money app and Checkout store product alongside the earlier product set, and reports 500k+ users, 75+ supported currencies and more than $600m in payments processed.

Market position
PIP describes itself as the payment layer of Web3 covering both consumer and merchant crypto payment use cases in a single integrated suite. Its documentation states it was funded by companies including Coinbase, Galaxy Digital and CMS and incubated by Binance Labs. Its PIP.ME product is presented as an alternative to conventional link-in-bio services, with an import path from Linktree.
PIP emphasizes no-registration onboarding via wallet connection, fully on-chain transactions with settlement directly to the user's wallet rather than a custodial balance requiring withdrawal, zero fees for accepting payments on the individual side, no-code setup for merchant tools, and the PIP Tag system that replaces long wallet addresses with short handles usable across social platforms and websites.
Technology
PIP's products are non-custodial and on-chain: users connect a crypto wallet and receive funds directly to it. The platform supports the top five blockchain networks, with documentation announcements covering BNB Chain, Polygon, Ethereum, Avalanche, Optimism and Base integrations, as well as MetaMask and Coinbase Wallet support and Worldcoin. A Chrome browser extension enables payments embedded in social networks, and the PIP Tag system maps readable handles to wallet addresses. Products support mobile wallets on Android and iOS and QR-code payments, and there is an ERC-20 bridge for the PIP token.
Go-to-market
Distribution is self-serve and product-led: a Chrome browser extension for social payments, embeddable no-code buttons and shareable links, QR codes, and hosted storefront and link-in-bio pages. The company maintains developer and user documentation, guides, an FAQ and a roadmap, and community channels on Twitter, Discord, Telegram, Medium, Youtube and Reddit, plus a Reward Farming incentive program and a project listing process.

Risks & controversies
The website's own statistics are internally inconsistent on currency support (75+ in the headline metrics versus 35+ in the multi-chain section). The documentation page was last updated three years before retrieval, and the sources provide no independent third-party verification of the user, currency or payment-volume figures, nor of the investor and incubation claims. No dated funding announcement, financials, headcount, founding entity or headquarters information appears in the sources.
