The world is coming onchain. Our mission is to make that happen, faster.

Crossmint is a platform for companies to build blockchain use cases. We give them all the infrastructure they need to build applications scalable to millions of consumers, while making the blockchain invisible to end users. Companies can build prototypes in hours, without requiring any blockchain experience, or holding crypto.

We are trusted by 35,000+ companies and developers, including Fortune 500 and major enterprises:

As well as web3 native companies and artists:

The Product

The platform includes multiple products which are modular but designed to work seamlessly together, offered as APIs and no-code, including:

  • Embedded wallets that make the blockchain invisible to end users (both custodial and non-custodial)
  • Tokenization APIs to create and distribute NFTs to those users
  • Payments infrastructure to sell those NFTs and accept any payment method, including fiat and cross-chain. For example, allowing purchases of Ethereum NFTs with SOL.
  • Token-gating tools to grant benefits to token-holders online and in-person.
  • Identity infrastructure to issue verifiable credentials (VCs), mint them onchain, and allow third-parties to validate them.
  • Other add-ons for security and compliance (AML monitoring, whitelabel KYC, spam filters), analytics, phygital, loyalty, gaming, and more.

Use Cases

We are betting on the technology, not any specific use case. We work across industries and applications. Here are some examples of how companies are using the tools:

  • AC Milan is tokenizing its stadium to build new ways to engage with their fans.
  • Airlines like Etihad Airways are tokenizing their loyalty systems.
  • An Amazonian tribe and Refik Anadol raised $4m+ to help preserve their environment.
  • Brands like Moser and Maison Margiela are tokenizing fashion items to build engagement and prevent counterfeit.
  • Phantom allows their 7m+ monthly active users to mint their own NFTs directly from their wallet.
  • McFarlane Toys pairs their Batman toys on Walmart with digital twins which can be used on videogames as avatars.
  • Coinbase uses the NFT checkout to onboard brands like Coca Cola and their clients.
