How Peer works
Peer is a non-custodial protocol built on smart contracts. A seller locks their own USDC in an onchain smart contract. A buyer pays the seller directly through a payment app they both already use, then proves that payment. The contract checks the proof and releases the USDC. Peer never has custody, possession, or control of anyone's funds, and neither do Guides.
Buyers and sellers use payment apps they already have. Peer is not affiliated with or endorsed by any payment app.
QUESTIONS ABOUT GUIDES
I already have a Guide. How do I get started?
Open your Guide's link and connect the wallet you'll cash out from before your first cash out. A Guide can't be linked to a wallet after its first cash out.
Who can be a Guide?
People who know their local community and can explain how Peer works may apply.
Do I need to use Peer already?
No. Tell the team about your community, your region, and the languages you speak.
Is it paid?
No. Guides are unpaid, independent community members. They get closer access to the Peer team, early product news, and community events.
Which regions are included?
We are starting across regions, including Greater China, the United States and Europe. Applications from other regions are welcome.
Do Guides handle anyone else’s money?
No. Guides never take, hold, or send anyone else's money, never use anyone else's payment account, and never trade for someone else. Peer never has custody of anyone's funds either: a smart contract locks and releases them.
How is my profile shown and removed?
You choose which profile details to share. Contact the Peer team to update or remove your profile.
Peer Guides are independent community members, not Peer employees or agents. They use only their own funds and payment accounts and never handle money for others. Peer is a non-custodial protocol and never has custody, possession, or control of user funds. Peer is not affiliated with or endorsed by any payment app. Nothing here is financial, legal, or tax advice; users are responsible for following the laws where they live.
