Question 1

What is Peer?

Accepted Answer

Peer is a peer-to-peer crypto onramp and offramp. You can buy crypto using payment apps like Venmo, PayPal, Revolut, and CashApp, or sell crypto back to fiat. It's permissionless, non-custodial, you control your funds, and works without middlemen.

Question 2

How does Peer work?

Accepted Answer

Connect via wallet, email, or socials, choose an offer, and send payment through your preferred app (Venmo, PayPal, Revolut, CashApp etc.). Peer uses TEE payment verification to check that the payment happened while limiting exposed payment details. Once verified, crypto is released directly to your wallet.

Question 3

What payment methods does Peer support?

Accepted Answer

Peer supports Venmo, PayPal, Revolut, CashApp, Wise, Monzo, Chime, Zelle, and Mercado Pago. More payment methods are added regularly.

Question 4

What chains does Peer support?

Accepted Answer

Peer is built on Base and supports bridging to Solana, Hyperliquid, Ethereum, and 20+ other chains.

Question 5

What currencies does Peer support?

Accepted Answer

Peer supports 24 currencies including USD, EUR, GBP, AUD, CAD, CHF, MXN, ARS, and more.

Question 6

How long does it take?

Accepted Answer

After sending payment, you'll receive crypto in 2-5 minutes. This includes payment verification and on-chain release. Bridging to other chains adds 1-2 minutes.

Question 7

What are Peer's fees?

Accepted Answer

Peer charges a small protocol fee during bridging (0.5%). There are no hidden charges—the price you see is the price you get.

Question 8

Is my payment data private?

Accepted Answer

TEE payment verification checks the payment details needed for settlement while limiting exposed data. Peer does not ask for bank details or full account history; if verification fails, captured payment metadata may be used to debug the error.

Question 9

Does Peer require identity verification?

Accepted Answer

No additional verification is required. You connect a wallet and use your existing payment apps. Peer uses TEE payment verification instead of a separate custodial off-ramp account flow.

Question 10

What are the order limits?

Accepted Answer

Order limits are based on your Taker Tier, which increases as you complete more orders. Limits range from $100 to $10,000 depending on your tier.
