Helio, founded in 2022 by Jim & Stijn, stands out as an innovative player in the Blockchain and Fintech industries. With a focus on enhancing the accessibility of crypto payments, Helio has built an impressive reputation, supporting major blockchains such as Solana, Ethereum, Bitcoin, and Base. Their product has gained trust from over 6,000 merchants and apps, along with 1 million users worldwide.
In 2024, Helio was acquired by MoonPay but continues to push boundaries as an independent entity, embodying a culture of innovation and fast-paced development. The company's headquarters in the United Kingdom positions it strategically in the global Web3 landscape.
