Taxable

Unlike BitCoin or cash payments, Taler ensures that governments can easily track their citizen's income and thus collect sales, value-added or income taxes. Taler is thus a currency for the mainstream economy, and not the black market.

Anonymous

When you pay with Taler, your identity does not have to be revealed to the merchant. The bank, government and mint will also never learn how you spent your electronic money. However, you can prove that you paid in court if necessary.

Libre

Taler is free software implementing an open protocol. Anybody is welcome to inspect our code and integrate our reference implementation into their applications.

Electronic

Taler is designed to work on the Internet. Using a so-called RESTful protocol over HTTP or HTTPS, Taler is easy to integrate with existing Web applications.

Reserves

Taler operates as a reserve. This means that Taler is not a new currency with the inherent currency fluctuation risks, but instead the digital coins correspond to existing currencies, such as US Dollars, Euros or even BitCoins.
