# Introduction
**Switch is** an online platform that allows any internet user wanting to accept cryptocurrency payments to sign up for an account number in less than 30 seconds which caters to their multiple self-managed cryptocurrency wallets. Switch is geared towards online businesses that intend to rely on crypto rather than the traditional banking instruments (credit cards, debit cards, wire transfers).\ \ **Switch is not** a bank, custodian wallet, an exchange, financial institutation, or any regulated financial entity in any shape or form and operates purely on the application layer - Switch is to cryptocurrency what Google Chrome is to the Internet. *** ### The Philosophy The politicial bureaucracy of the modern world brings too much red tape onto the realm of banking and finance complicating the maneuverability of traditional money. Rather than a traditional bank's branch in your city dealing in government-issued tender, Switch is merely the provider of a proprietary account number on the internet that allows you to aggregate payments for your desired cryptocurrencies to your wallets directly under a single handle/layer of identity. Unlike a bank that holds custody of your funds, Switch only participates in an ecosystem where you alone control your treasury while Switch acts as a gateway, point-of-sale and an accounting platform for your business - thanks to the blockchain technology. This translates to no KYC, no limits but obviously your own responsibility for your funds, their fiat conversion and exchange. As Switch's fealty lies only to the internet, it becomes a tool of mass-adoption without borders, race, cast or religion allowing anyone and everyone to participate in an ecosystem of self-banking through crypto where Switch becomes a formalized interface and identity for the novice willing to accept payments internationally.
