Selected startups are operating on the verge of Logistics Solutions, Security & Fraud, AI, Data & Behavioural Analytics, Ad & Marketing Solutions, Sales Tech and Retail Tech industries.

Paul Sisnett, CTO of Satellite Moving Devices Wireless, commented: “paywith.glass represents our contribution to the second financial revolution and our interpretation of the financial services model in a post-currency era.

paywith.glass represents a philosophical shift in the way we think money and commerce in general will be viewed. The future of finance, payments and money as we know it will not feature a single currency or value store that becomes the de facto standard unit of commerce. It will instead be a world dominated by a global, semi-autonomous, DLT-powered network, which performs real-time atomic swaps of currencies or value stores, as a function, not a feature of trade/payment.
Ultimately, the fundamental purpose of a payments facility is to efficiently and seamlessly exchange one value for another value, irrespective of the vehicle or currency used. paywith.glass is a universal payments platform designed to allow the world to utilize its money in any shape or form, with any entry point or application conceivable.
