Product Vision:

“To become the global standard for tuition payments by leveraging crypto’s speed and cost efficiency, while abstracting its complexity for mainstream users.”

Core Thesis & Key Differentiation:

Cross-border tuition payments are stuck in the analog era. Crypto (specifically cross-boarder payment solutions & stablecoins) solves this by:

• Eliminating intermediaries (reducing fees from 5–8% to 0.5–3%).

• Enabling near-instant settlement (10 minutes vs. 3–7 days for bank / cash / mobile / card).

• Guaranteeing rate stability (via USD-backed stablecoins like USDC).
  
  
  User Pain Points:

• International tuition payments are slow, expensive, and opaque.

• Students / parents waste hours managing exchange rates, bank forms, and deadlines.

• Universities struggle with reconciliation and delayed funds.

• Global remittance is undergoing one of the biggest revolution, and yet key infrastructure remains static.
  

Market Gap: No crypto-native platform tailored for education payments, despite crypto’s natural fit for cross-border transactions.


Target Users:

• International students from high-friction corridors (e.g., India → U.S., Nigeria → U.K.).

• Parents paying tuition abroad with limited FX/crypto knowledge.

• Universities seeking faster reconciliation and lower payment failure rates.

• Education consultancies looking to streamline payment workflows.

Technical Architecture

Blockchain Layer:

• Primary Networks: Pharos Network, EDU Chain, Solana (*decide based on cost, speed, security, etc.)

• Stablecoins: USDC (Circle), USDT (Tether), etc.
  

Key Integrations:

• Fiat On-Ramp: Circle, MoonPay, Stripe Crypto.

• Custody: Circle, Fireblocks (institutional-grade wallets).

• FX Partners: Circle, Reap, Wise (for bulk stablecoin liquidity).

Backend Workflow:

• User pays via credit card → fiat converted to USDC via an on-ramp partner like Circle / Moonpay.

• USDC sent to the university’s custodian (Circle / Fireblocks).

• Fireblocks / Circle auto-converts USDC to EUR/USD and deposits into the university’s bank.

Intuipay is not a crypto product – it’s a payments product that uses crypto under the hood.
