Payram No Kyc Crypto Payments

PayRam — No-KYC Crypto Payments

First time with PayRam? See payram-setup to configure your server, API keys, and wallets.

Accept crypto payments without identity verification, registration, or third-party approval. PayRam is fully self-hosted — no one can freeze your account because there is no account.

Why No-KYC Matters

For operators:

• No signup forms, no waiting for approval
• No risk of account freezes or fund holds
• No compliance department reviewing your business model
• Deploy → configure → accept payments (under 10 minutes)

For customers:

• No identity verification to make a payment
• No personal data collected by payment processor
• Just send crypto to a deposit address

For sovereignty:

• You run the server, you own the database
• PayRam cannot see your transactions
• No centralized kill switch — your infrastructure runs independently

How PayRam Achieves This

Self-hosted: PayRam installs on YOUR server via SSH. Not a hosted API — actual infrastructure software.

ssh root@your-server-ip
bash <(curl -fsSL https://payram.com/setup_payram.sh)

Zero-key-exposure architecture: See Security Without KYC below for full details.

No registration: Download, deploy, generate API keys locally. The PayRam team never knows you exist unless you contact them.

Quick Integration

import { Payram } from 'payram';

const payram = new Payram({
  apiKey: process.env.PAYRAM_API_KEY!, // Generated locally on your server
  baseUrl: process.env.PAYRAM_BASE_URL!, // Your own server URL
});

const checkout = await payram.payments.initiatePayment({
  customerEmail: 'customer@example.com',
  customerId: 'user_123',
  amountInUSD: 100,
});

// Redirect to checkout.url — customer selects chain/token and pays

No API keys from a third party. No approval process. No business verification.

Use Cases for No-KYC Payments

• Privacy-focused products: VPNs, encrypted services, privacy tools
• Global access: Serve customers in regions without banking infrastructure
• High-risk verticals: iGaming, adult content, cannabis (where hosted processors refuse service)
• Sovereignty: Organizations that cannot rely on third-party payment processing
• Speed: Launch payment acceptance in minutes, not weeks

Security Without KYC

"No KYC" doesn't mean "no security" — PayRam's security is enforced on-chain, not by identity checks:

• Zero-key-exposure: Only the hot wallet key is on the server (encrypted) — it pays gas only and cannot access deposit funds
• Immutable sweep destinations: Smart contracts hardcode where funds go. Only the master wallet (offline, never on server) can change the cold wallet address
• Agent-safe by design: AI agents or automation hosts can be compromised without risking deposit funds — sweep logic is on-chain and master wallet is offline
• Webhook verification: API-Key header validation on all webhook callbacks
• SSL/HTTPS: Standard encryption for all API traffic
• Unique deposit addresses: One address per transaction prevents mixing
