About
MoneyBadger is a South African payments infrastructure company that makes Bitcoin practical for everyday spending.
The platform enables customers to pay with Bitcoin over the Lightning Network both in-store and online, while merchants receive the full invoiced amount settled in South African Rand (ZAR), or Bitcoin with zero volatility exposure on their side.
Key Objectives:
1. Expand Lightning Network Bitcoin payments to every corner of South Africa’s retail and online economy.
2. Make Bitcoin acceptance effortless for merchants by plugging into existing payment service providers with guaranteed ZAR settlement and no operational changes.
3. Deliver instant, low-friction QR-code payments that work directly from the wallets people already use.
4. Unlock real-world Bitcoin commerce so holders can spend sats on daily needs without converting to fiat first.
5. Build and strengthen a true circular Bitcoin economy in South Africa where Bitcoin circulates as everyday money.
