# Introduction to HandlPay

> HandlPay turns your social media username into a private, multi-chain payment handle. Receive crypto and cash as easily as getting a DM. No addresses, no friction.

HandlPay turns social media usernames into private, multi-chain payment handles. Receive crypto and cash payments as easily as getting a DM.

Our mission: To make P2P payments as simple as a card tap.

When you pay at a store, you don't need to figure out how the merchant is going to get your money. You just tap your card and go. No thinking required. HandlPay takes this blueprint to peer-to-peer payments.

With HandlPay, there is no need to waste time coordinating payments or manually converting them. If they can DM you, they can pay you.
