Introduces Revolutionary B2B Payment Solutions
Distributed Technologies Research (DTR), a fintech company focused on simplifying global payments infrastructure, officially launched its technology platform today. DTR seamlessly bridges national payment systems around the world to make financial transactions efficient, secure and universally accessible.
Current payment networks suffer from inefficiencies – such as transfer costs, interchange fees, FX conversion charges, settlement delays and other opaque fees – that effectively act as an indirect tax on consumers worldwide. DTR’s innovative solutions mitigate these inequities with an adaptable, compliant and scalable payment systems architecture that is globally accessible to businesses of all sizes.
“Our team has spent several years studying the systemic barriers within traditional payment systems. The amalgamation of national payments systems with blockchain technologies has the potential to eliminate the hidden tax on consumers,” said Akshay Naheta, Founder & CEO of DTR.
DTR has unveiled AmalgamOS™, a state-of-the-art technology stack designed to streamline money transfers and merchant payments. Leveraging its proprietary International Orchestration Network (ION), AmalgamOS™ enhances financial connectivity and security for businesses worldwide. Currently live and trusted by numerous merchants and corporate clients, AmalgamOS™ enables instant fiat-to-fiat, fiat-to-stablecoin and stablecoin-to-fiat transactions in over 40 countries, with a roadmap into more than 100 countries in 2025.
Key Features of AmalgamOS™:
Enhanced Transaction Speed: Transactions settle in minutes, leveraging blockchains’ 24/7 operational capability.
Cost Efficiency: Reduced reliance on intermediaries drastically lowers transaction fees.
Global Reach: Currently operational for payouts in over 40 countries worldwide, with pay-in capabilities available across EU nations. The platform is consistently expanding, with new countries being added monthly to enhance global reach and accessibility.
Developer-Centric Design: Flexible API’s, easy-to-integrate widgets, comprehensive white-label solutions, and a merchant control panel provide extensive optionality through simple integrations.
DTR’s interdisciplinary team combines seasoned professionals from traditional finance, payment systems, blockchains and Web3 technology. “DTR is dedicated to its goal of redefining the payments ecosystem by fostering inclusivity and eliminating inefficiencies, benefitting millions of people worldwide. By leveraging blockchain technologies for transparency, security and instantaneous settlements, DTR is addressing the growing demand for efficient and scalable payments solutions,” said Naheta.
Stablecoin transaction volume reached $8.5 trillion(1) in the second quarter of 2024 alone, and the global cross-border payments market is projected to grow to $290 trillion by 2030 from $190 trillion in 2023(2). DTR is uniquely positioned to lead this global payment systems transformation.
