We acquired Paper 💫

Today, we’re extremely excited to announce that thirdweb has acquired Paper — adding their industry-leading wallet & NFT checkout products to our web3 development stack.

The next big thing in web3 won’t be a PFP project or a new token. It will be a consumer application that’s used by hundreds of millions of people — without them even knowing they’re interacting with the blockchain.

thirdweb and Paper make it possible for anyone to build this next generation of internet apps, joining forces to create the end-to-end blockchain development toolkit.

Paper has built two best-in-class solutions to the biggest problems with web3 onboarding:

• Wallets: Anyone can create a web3 wallet with just an email address, phone number, or social login — with customizable features like wallet recovery & gasless transactions.

• Checkout: Anyone can use a credit card or crypto (from any chain) to buy digital assets — with support for Apple Pay, Google Pay, & more.

In 18 months, Paper has onboarded 500k+ people onto web3 — processing over $10 million in transactions and working with renown brands like Unilever, Balmain, & Deadmau5:

Together, we’re excited to empower developers with all of the tools they need to build best-in-class blockchain apps & accelerate web3 adoption — all within one development stack:
