YooPing aims to “positively disrupt” digital communications, for the benefit of users and communication providers, using blockchain and smart contracts.

Blockchain provides distributed trust through consensus. Smart contracts provide commitment (a small and potentially refundable financial risk) by the sender . Combined, they provide the communications industry with the assurance everyone benefits from.

Using a lightweight protocol and fast, secure API a sender checks on what terms a recipient allows digital communication. A signed token may be returned containing a financial obligation and the sender can decide if they want to proceed or not.

Smart contracts act as an escrow service ensuring the communications are established transferring or returning any financial risk.

Our service can be integrated by every communication provider… every mobile handset maker, social media provider, instant messaging service, email client developer, streaming video provider. By providing users with the tools to control their communications preferences, they earn a share of the value the user generates.
