1. The Multi-Chain Payment Challenge

Payments and value transfers shouldn’t stop at chain borders. Today, developers face fragmented liquidity, inconsistent tokens, and brittle integrations—making true cross-chain payments and smooth user experiences hard to deliver.

​
2. LI.FI’s Vision

We believe payments, trades, and transfers should flow freely across all blockchains. LI.FI is the multi-chain routing layer that makes this vision possible—optimizing every swap, transfer, or payment with one simple integration.

​
3. What LI.FI Delivers

  • Multi-chain payments and swaps through one unified API/SDK.
  • Access to all liquidity — DEX aggregators, bridges, and solvers combined.
  • Smart routing that finds the cheapest and fastest path for any payment or trade.
  • Plug-and-play widget for instant user-facing payment flows.

​
4. Why Developers Choose LI.FI for Payments

  • Expand globally — accept or send payments across chains and tokens.
  • Lower costs — aggregation ensures every payment clears at the best possible rate.
  • Reliability built-in — redundant routing keeps payment flows smooth, even if a provider fails.
  • Faster integration — one SDK replaces dozens of chain-specific builds.
