Fun, global Venmo built on USDC

BeerMe is a digital wallet for USDC. It’s like Venmo or Cash App, but we use stablecoins to make sending money instant, global, and free. A peer-to-peer electronic cash system is the crypto use-case, but the technology remains inaccessible to mainstream users. Today, after 15 years of innovation, it is finally possible to build a digital wallet that puts crypto into a billion people’s hands, without them even realizing it.

BeerMe - A fun, global alternative to Venmo built on USDC

Hey YC! We’re Gray and Noah, co-founders of BeerMe.

The Problem: Sending money should be as engaging as other forms of digital content.
As we spend more time online, our options for self-expression (text, audio, photos, video, gifs, emojis, reactions, and stickers) have flourished. But payments feel about the same as they did 10 years ago.

The Solution: BeerMe makes sending money fun and expressive.

Send an old friend a couple beers ($16) on his birthday. Text your daughter a coffee ($5) to brighten up her finals week. Slack your team little treats ($4 each) at the end of a long sprint. With a curated library of tokens, any moment becomes an occasion.

Like all social media content, tokens can be sent via private, anonymous links on any platform where people stay connected. Transfers are instant, global, and free. Track and manage tokens, swap for other options, or cash out USDC to any crypto wallet or exchange.

With BeerMe, there’s a token for every moment.

Our Ask:

  1. Sign up with your phone number at BeerMe.World before 10/30 and we’ll send you a free Founder Mode token ($1).
  2. SOGO (Send one, get one) Send someone a token, tell us about your experience by DMing @BeerMeWorld on X or emailing noah@beerme.world, and we’ll send you a beer ($8).
  3. Want to send a token that’s not available yet? Reach out to noah@beerme.world and we’ll custom-make you a token and add it to the platform.

If you’ve already signed up for BeerMe, contact us directly for your Founder Mode token.

Any feedback is appreciated. Thanks so much for your support!
