Built for ownership.

Payment Kernel gives applications a unified payment object across sovereign and peer-to-peer rails without requiring custodial control.

Own Every Rail

Bitcoin, Lightning, Cash App, Venmo, and Zelle. Unified into one payment object instead of fragmented integrations.

Instant Settlement

Payments settle directly to your wallet. Never routed through ours. Never held by us.

Zero Dependencies

No API keys that can be revoked. No accounts that can be suspended. Infrastructure designed to reduce external choke points.

// The entire integration
const payment = await kernel.createPayment({
  amount: 49.00,
  currency: 'USD',
  reference: 'ORDER-001'
})

// Returns Bitcoin address, Lightning invoice,
// and P2P deeplinks in one response.
// Whichever rail settles first wins.
