Motivation & Problem

The motivation behind Anypay is to empower all developers in the world to create apps that can transfer any kind of value on any open system. Inspired by the concept of Internet of Value where value moves freely between all networks and asset classes of the world, for a more harmonious global market society, Anypay was created to solve problems specifically in the retail payments realm.

Primarily Anypay solves problems of digital cash payments in physical and online stores, such as restaurants, cafes or online ecommerce websites, and app developers looking to ensure perfect payments within their apps. Common and persistent problems such as incorrect amounts, invalid addresses, long delays, failure to confirm, double spend fraud, accidental double payments are addressed.

Payments Protocols

To ensure perfect payments every time Anypay implements various competing standards for payment protocols and offers a novel protocol that incorporates all command standards into a single streamlined format.

• JSON Payment Protocol - simplified multi-chain payment protocol developed by Bitpay
• BIP70 - Original Bitcoin payment protocol with focus on efficiency (protobuf) and security (X.509 verification)
• BIP270 - Simplified single coin payment protocol developed for use within Bitcoin SV economy
• Pay:// Protocol - Unified single URI protocol that supports all three other with flexibility for more
