What is the UDPN?

The UDPN is a decentralised payments messaging backbone connecting digital currency systems to enable seamless, efficient payments including regulated stablecoins and in the future Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs).
It is managed by the UDPN Alliance through a distributed governance framework that ensures joint and equitable control.

What is its purpose?

The UDPN allows any entity (natural or legal) to transfer and swap digital currencies across borders, currencies, and systems in a low-cost and convenient manner.

How does it work?

The UDPN is a blockchain-underpinned infrastructure that supports third-party smart contract deployment and execution to enable financial and payment-related services in digital currency.
