+
+ <p>GNU Taler is a privacy-preserving payment system. Customers can stay
+anonymous, but merchants can not hide their income through payments with GNU Taler.
+This helps to avoid tax evasion and money laundering.</p>
+
+ <p> The primary use case of GNU Taler is payments; it is not meant as a
+store of value. Payments are always backed by an existing currency.</p>
+
+ <p>Payment are made after converting existing money into <em>electronic money</em> with the help of
+ an Exchange, that is, a payment service provider for Taler.</p>
+
+ <p>When making a payment, customers only need a charged wallet. A merchant can accept payments without
+ making their customers register on the merchant's Website, as payments are stored in the wallet.</p>
+
+ <p>GNU Taler is resistent against many types of fraud, such as phishing of credit card information
+ or chargeback fraud. In case of loss or theft, only the limited amount of money left in the wallet will be gone.

+ <h2>{{ _("Paying with Taler") }}</h2>
+ {% trans %}
+ <p>To pay with Taler, customers install an electronic wallet
+ on their device. Before the first payment, the desired currency
+ must be added to the wallet's balance
+ by some other means of payment.</p>
+ <p>Once the wallet is charged, payments on websites take only one click,
+ are never falsely rejected by fraud detection and do not pose any risk
+ of phishing or identity theft.</p>

+ <h2>{{ _("Receiving payments with Taler") }}</h2>
+ {% trans %}
+ <p>To receive Taler payments, a merchant needs a bank account
+ in the desired currency. We provide supporting software
+ in various programming languages to make the integration painless.
+ The merchant's backend for Taler transaction processing can run
+ on the merchant's premises or be hosted by a third party.</p>
+ <p>Merchant integration is simple, and customers can pay for products without even having to register an account.</p>
+ <p><a href="https://docs.taler.net">See how merchant integration works in our developer documentation!</a></p>

+ <h3>{{ _("Practical") }}</h3>
+
+ <p>
+ {% trans %}
+ Taler is easy to integrate with existing Web
+ applications. Payments are cryptographically
+ secured and are confirmed within milliseconds with
+ extremely low transaction costs.
+ {% endtrans %}
+ </p>
+
+ </div>
+ <div class="col-lg-4">
+ <h3>{{ _("Stable") }}</h3>
+
+ <p>
+ {% trans %}
+ Taler does not introduce a new currency. Taler
+ uses a digital wallet storing coins and payment service
+ providers with escrow accounts in existing currencies.
+ Thus, Taler's cryptographic coins correspond to existing
+ currencies, such as US Dollars, Euros or even Bitcoins.
+ {% endtrans %}
+ </p>
+
+ </div>
+ <div class="col-lg-4">
+ <h3>{{ _("Secure") }}</h3>
+
+ <p>
+ {% trans %}
+ By design Taler does not suffer from many classes
+ of security problems such as phishing or counterfeit.
+ Thanks to its security features, Taler never rejects a legitimate
+ customer due to a fraud-detection false positive.

+ <h3>{{ _("Taxable") }}</h3>
+
+ <p>
+ {% trans %}
+ When using Taler, merchant's revenue is transparent for tax
+ collection authorities. Unlike cash and most digital currencies,
+ Taler helps prevent black markets. Taler is not suitable for
+ illegal activities.
+ {% endtrans %}

+ <div class="col-lg-4">
+ <h3>{{ _("Private") }}</h3>
+ <p>
+ {% trans %}
+ When you pay with Taler, your identity does not
+ have to be revealed. Just like
+ payments in cash, nobody else can track how you
+ spent your electronic money. However, you obtain a
+ legally valid proof of payment.

+ <h3>{{ _("Libre") }}</h3>
+
+ <p>
+ {% trans %}
+ Taler provides protocols and reference implementations that in
+ principle enables anybody to run their own payment infrastructure,
+ be it individuals, organizations or whole countries. Since the
+ reference implementation is a <a href="http://www.gnu.org/">GNU</a>
+ package, it will always remain free software.
