Vesseo is a self-custodial digital wallet that allows you to buy, sell, store, send, and receive digital dollars (USDC) simply and securely. It operates under a self-custody model, which means you have full control over your funds at all times, without intermediaries. It is designed to make using the digital dollar easier and help you manage your finances with greater freedom and peace of mind.

You can deposit and withdraw money in your local currency through our partners in each region using bank transfers, debit cards, or cash. In some countries, you can also use local methods such as transfers (alias/CVU), QR codes, or Pix in Brazil. Additionally, you can withdraw cash at various locations around the world through services like MoneyGram. In some cases, you will be asked for additional information to enable these features.

When you deposit into Vesseo, your funds are converted to USDC, a digital dollar that maintains a 1:1 peg with the US dollar. You can send and receive USDC quickly through the Stellar network, whether to other Vesseo users or to any compatible wallet, without unnecessary intermediaries.

Vesseo is a self-custodial wallet, meaning you maintain full control of your funds and private keys. It is built on blockchain technology and allows you to protect your account with a PIN, biometrics, and a backup phrase. It is crucial never to share this phrase, as it grants full access to your account.

To receive an international payment, you can use your US Virtual Account details and share them with the sender so they can send funds in USD. Once the payment is processed, the funds are converted into USDC—a digital dollar that maintains a 1:1 value with USD—and credited directly to your Vesseo wallet. You can also receive payments directly in USDC through the Stellar network by sharing your wallet address. This provides a fast and efficient way to get paid globally without relying on traditional banking rails.
