Crypto had a missing Linq.
We built it.

The first platform for non-custodial crypto to third-party fiat payments.

Start paying with crypto

Crypto grew.
Payments did not.

Crypto adoption has grown faster than any financial technology in history. Hundreds of millions of people now hold digital assets worldwide, and that number keeps climbing every year.

Yet, for most holders, spending crypto in the real world still means the same thing:
Send crypto to an exchange, off-ramp to your own bank account (first party-payment), wait for settlement (hoping your bank will accept it) – then pay.

Every transaction forces holders back into the system crypto was supposed to improve. The infrastructure for spending simply never caught up with the infrastructure for holding.

That is the gap TrustLinq was built to close.

The first of its kind.
Non-Custodial crypto to third-party fiat.

TrustLinq does something no platform did before. A user deposits USDT, USDC, EURC, or RLUSD from their own non-custodial wallet into a smart contract-secured payment account (smart contract vault). TrustLinq converts and settles the payment as local fiat directly into the recipient’s bank account.

No exchange account. No off-ramp. No user bank account in-between. No crypto knowledge required on the recipient’s end. And crucially, the sender never surrenders custody of their assets to a third party.

The payment arrives as a standard local bank transfer in the recipient’s own currency, across 190+ countries and 80+ currencies, settling locally through 60+ payment corridors wherever possible.

For the first time, a non-custodial crypto wallet is also a direct payment tool.

Built at a scale that matters.

190+

Countries covered, with local fiat settlement wherever possible.

80+

Currencies supported, so recipients receive funds in their own currency.

Non-Custodial

Your crypto stays in your control. Payments are funded through a smart contract-secured account.

Swiss

Regulated, operating under Swiss financial and data protection law, one of the most rigorous regulatory frameworks in the world.

Regulated.
Where it matters most.

TrustLinq CH AG is headquartered in  Switzerland and operates under Swiss financial regulation.

Switzerland applies some of the most rigorous financial oversight and data protection standards in the world. For a platform handling real cross-border payments, that is not a detail. It is the foundation everything else is built on.

Every payment processed through TrustLinq carries the weight of that regulatory commitment.

The people behind it.
