Private by design
Your money is nobody's business.
At a typical bank, every payment you make is a line in a database that staff, partners and anyone who breaks in can read. On Alpha, every payment is sealed. Not even Alpha can read it.

Your balance and your payments unlock only on your own devices. A sealed record is opened only on a lawful request, approved by several keyholders, and every opening is logged.
There is no master key to stealAlpha holds no key to anyone's money and no central pot of it. There is nothing in the middle to break into.
Rules locked into the codeYour limits, approvals and freezes are enforced by the code that runs your account. Not even Alpha can override them.
Your face, not a passwordEvery payment and every new recipient needs your passkey on your own phone. There is no password to phish.

Always in dollars
Hold the world's reserve currency. Spend in your own.
The US dollar is the currency the world settles in: governments, banks and global business all hold it. Alpha keeps every balance in dollars, wherever you live, so your money sits in the currency the world trusts most, not the one your country happens to use. When you need local money, it converts at that moment, at a rate you see first.
Illustration. Over the last five years, dozens of currencies lost a quarter or more of their value against the dollar.
Held as digital dollarsRegulated, fully reserved, and redeemable one-to-one for US dollars at any time.
Local when you need itGet paid in euros, pay rent in pesos, shop in yen. Your balance stays in dollars in between, and only converts the moment you spend or send.
Insurance against your own currencyIf inflation spikes or your currency falls, your balance doesn't move. Every dollar you hold simply buys more at home, not less.
No hidden marginThe rate and every cost are shown before you tap. 0% Alpha fee on paid plans.
Under the hood
Built on rails that can't lie.
Alpha runs on a public blockchain: a ledger nobody owns and anyone can check. You'll never see it in the app. It's the reason the app can make promises others can't.
YOUR PHONE · LISBONSend US$1,200 to MinaChoose a recipient. Approve with Face ID.
A payment, from tap to arrival. Watch the sealed proof move.
01Every dollar, accounted for every secondThe ledger proves that what it holds equals what it owes, block by block, around the clock. If a single cent were missing, everything would stop. Anyone can check.
02Digital dollars, fully reservedYour balance is held as regulated digital dollars, backed one-to-one by US dollars and short-dated US government debt, and redeemable at any time.
03Code that can't be changedThe rules that hold your money are published once and never altered. No update can quietly change what they do.
Your keys
Your money is yours. Only you hold the keys.
You approve every payment with your passkey, on your own phone. There is no key on our side: no one at Alpha can move your money, and nothing that happens to Alpha can either.
Lose every device and any two of your three guardians, your backup key, a person you trust, and Alpha, can let you back in, after a 72-hour wait that gives you time to stop anyone who isn't you.

Most account theft starts with a password or a reset link. Alpha has neither.
Face ID, not a passwordA passkey on your own phone approves every payment. There is no password to leak and no code by text to intercept.
No master keyAlpha holds no key that opens your account. There is nothing inside Alpha for an attacker to take.
Lose every device, keep your moneyTwo of three guardians can let you back in: your backup key, a person you trust, and Alpha. After a 72-hour delay you can stop if it wasn't you.
Rules locked in codeThe rules that hold your money are published once and never altered. No update can quietly change what they do.
New recipient? Face ID againSending to someone new asks for Face ID a second time. No waiting period, no way for a thief to add themselves.
Limits that follow youRolling 30-day limits you set yourself, raised only with Face ID, so a bad day can't become a catastrophe.
