Do I need crypto?

No. Pay with your card like any other website. The blockchain stuff happens behind the scenes. You never have to think about it.

The Experience

You sign up with your email. You pay with your credit card or Apple Pay. You run agents and see results.

That's it.

What you DON'T needWhat's handled for you
❌ No walletβœ… Auto-created for you
❌ No seed phrasesβœ… Managed behind the scenes
❌ No gas feesβœ… Included in pricing
❌ No token swapsβœ… Instant conversion

If you've ever bought something online, you already know how to use indie.money.

What's Actually Happening

Visible vs. Invisible:

What YOU SEEWhat happens AUTOMATICALLY
Sign up with emailWallet created automatically
Pay with credit cardConverted to inUSD
Run agentsNFT ownership recorded
See resultsSmart contract settlement

Yes, there's blockchain under the hood. Your agent ownership is recorded as an NFT. Payments settle in stablecoins. Smart contracts handle the billing.

But you don't see any of that. We create a wallet for you automatically. We convert your dollars to platform credits instantly. We pay the transaction fees.

It's like how you don't think about TCP/IP when you browse the web. The infrastructure exists, but it's not your problem.

Why We Built It This Way

BenefitWhy it matters
βœ… True ownershipNFT proves you own what you bought
βœ… Transparent paymentsBlockchain tracks every transaction
βœ… No chargebacksFinal transactions protect Builders
βœ… Global settlementWorks anywhere, instantly

Crypto has real benefits - we wanted those for the platform.

But we didn't want to force everyone to learn a new financial system just to run an automation tool. That would be ridiculous.

So we made the technology invisible. You get the benefits without the complexity.

For Those Who Want Crypto

Optional Crypto Access:

Standard PathCrypto Path
Email + CardMetaMask + USDC
Auto walletYour wallet
Simple setupManual connection

Crypto Path gives you: Full control, See NFTs on-chain, Pay directly with USDC

If you do have a wallet and prefer to use it, you can:

  • Connect with MetaMask or any wallet
  • Pay in USDC
  • See your agent NFTs on-chain
  • Full control if you want it

But it's optional. Most people never touch it.

The Bottom Line

Use your card. We handle the crypto. You just run agents.
