Scaling Cross-Chain Payments Across APAC

Founded in June and having successfully closed our angel round in July, KiraPay has made tremendous progress this quarter toward building a seamless cross-chain payments ecosystem.

🚀 Product Milestone — Beta Launch (October 6, 2025)

After three months of focused development, the KiraPay Payment Gateway Beta is now live — marking a major step toward enabling effortless cross-chain payment collections.

The Beta (v0) introduces a complete suite for both merchants and developers:

• Merchant Dashboard to manage transactions, refunds, and payment links

• Developer SDK + API for seamless integration into apps and platforms

• Wallet-agnostic, on-chain checkout for secure and transparent payments across EVM chains

All payments run fully on-chain with verified routes, secure transaction logic, and optimized gas usage — ensuring funds and data remain under user control.

🛒 For Merchants

We’re inviting the first 100 merchants to join the beta with early access and onboarding support.

No coding is required — merchants can create payment links with one click directly from the dashboard.

Early participants will also receive:

• Dedicated onboarding from our technical team

• 50% rebate on platform fees

• Product showcase opportunities at upcoming partner events

Interested merchants can sign up through the Interest Form to get started.

👩🏻‍💻 For Developers

Developers can start integrating immediately using our SDK and API, built for fast, stable, and lightweight deployment across multiple chains.

Documentation is live at docs.kira-pay.com.

🌏 Early Merchant Onboarding & Roadshow in APAC

This quarter, we focused on connecting with users and builders across Asia — strengthening KiraPay’s visibility and onboarding early adopters to our cross-chain payment gateway.

• Participated in 16+ events across 9 cities — Manila, Kuala Lumpur, Ha Noi, Bali, Tokyo, Taipei, Seoul, Singapore, and New Delhi

• Pitched at flagship events hosted by Cointelegraph Accelerator, Block Office, and BlockTempo

• Engaged hundreds of builders, founders, and merchants through live demos and community activations

🔥 Fueling the Builder Ecosystem — The Intent Fellowship S1 Recap

Phase 1 of the Intent Fellowship Program has officially wrapped up — a key initiative designed for EthGlobal New Delhi applicants to kickstart their journey with KIRAPAY.

To further showcase what we’re building, we also sponsored a booth at Metamorphosis 2025, connecting directly with the developer community on the ground.

Through this phase, we welcomed 4 scholars and 10 fellows, forming a talented cohort of early builders we’re excited to collaborate with long-term. Alongside that, we’ve partnered with 12+ developer communities, expanding awareness of KIRAPAY and what our technology can enable. Several early use cases have already been built — and we’ll be sharing them soon across our channels.

As we move into Q4, we’re focused on deepening builder support. With our KIRA SDK & API documentation now live, we’re rolling out starter kits, technical onboarding guides, and video tutorials to help developers get started faster. We’re also teaming up with Vibe Coding Tools to make it easier for non-technical builders to integrate our payment gateway into their projects effortlessly.

Stay tuned — we’ll continue partnering with hackathons across APAC to drive adoption and empower the next wave of builders.
