Helio provides a Web3 payments platform that lets merchants, dApps, and creators accept instant crypto payments across multiple blockchains including Solana, Polygon, and Ethereum. The platform includes built-in content paywalling and watch-to-earn monetization features for creators such as podcasters, YouTubers, artists, NFT projects, media, and platforms. Since launching in summer 2022, Helio's system has processed over $10 million in e-commerce, NFT sales, SaaS subscriptions, content paywalls, and other payments for more than 900 merchant customers and 35,000 users. The company plans to pursue a multi-chain strategy with launches planned for Bitcoin and Binance. It also intends to deliver an in-app wallet to enable Web2-style payment experiences and integrations. Helio says it will use funds to expand its engineering team and build out sales and marketing to sign partnerships with creator platforms and marketplaces.
