About the Company
PayNow simplifies online crypto payments, making them intuitive and user-friendly. Instead of using complex wallet addresses to pay merchants or friends online, PayNow enables users to easily send cryptocurrency-based payments to their favorite store at something like - shop.paynow.com. Invidiual users stand to benefit from their own customizable addresses, too! PayNow wallets are easy to remember, much easier than traditional wallet addresses, and easy to share because of this. Our vision is to make the easiest payment process possible, not encumbered by the previously unresolved issues of crypto transactions.
