Web3 Backend Dev at YODL

YODL makes Web3 Payments easy like paying with credit card or mobile apps. We're building an interoperability layer for Web3 payments and build on top of existing blockchain/DeFi infrastructure (chains, wallets, stablecoins, DEXes) and make them useable in a payment context.

Our team has built successful mobile payment apps, defi protoocols, launched Uber in the German-speaking countries and a bag full of other prestige-worthy logos.
