GNU Taler: Features

+
+
+
+
+ +

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.

+ +

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.

+ +

Payment are made after converting existing money into electronic money with the help of + an Exchange, that is, a payment service provider for Taler.

+ +

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.

+ +

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. +

+
+

{{ _("Paying with Taler") }}

+ {% trans %} +

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.

+

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.

+

Try it yourself with the interactive demo!

+ {% endtrans %} +
+
+

{{ _("Receiving payments with Taler") }}

+ {% trans %} +

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.

+

Merchant integration is simple, and customers can pay for products without even having to register an account.

+

See how merchant integration works in our developer documentation!

+

{{ _("Practical") }}

+ +

+ {% 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 %} +

+ +
+
+

{{ _("Stable") }}

+ +

+ {% 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 %} +

+ +
+
+

{{ _("Secure") }}

+ +

+ {% 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. + {% endtrans %} +

+ +
+
+
+
+

{{ _("Taxable") }}

+ +

+ {% 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 %} +

+ +
+
+

{{ _("Private") }}

+

+ {% 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. + {% endtrans %} +

+ +
+
+

{{ _("Libre") }}

+ +

+ {% 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 GNU + package, it will always remain free software. + {% endtrans %} +
