The UTRUST platform aims to provide the consumer protection that buyers take for granted in traditional online purchases, acting as a mediator, resolving conflicts and enabling the possibility of refunds to mitigate fraud, while shielding the merchant from crypto-market volatility. We want to build upon the best features of cryptocurrencies to enable fast transactions, lower fees and low cross-border transaction friction, enabling merchants to sell to a growing worldwide audience of crypto-holders. In summation, we aim to build a payment API for marketplace integration that will become the crypto-contender to PayPal.
