What is ethrift.io?

Our first project ethrift.io is an Australian AUSTRAC registered non-custodial digital currency exchange. At launch it features AUD/ETH ETH/DAI trading pairs and DSR savings vault. Our system allows for the instant payments from traditional banking FIAT systems using New Payment Platform (NPP) services PayID and Oska and the customers cryptocurrency is received directly to their eth-wallet.

ethrift.io is a non-custodial service meaning that the customer retains ownership of their crypto and secures their own private keys. The objective of ethrift.io is to facilitate the safe onboarding of newcomers to the crypto space and promote the ownership of one's own digital assets. We do this by providing MetaMask integration so that we may deliver digital currencies directly to your wallet upon purchase, using New Payments Platform (NPP) processing systems PayID and Osko.

ethrift.io is intended to be a simple and friendly portal to get started using the blockchain and is the gateway to our greater ecosystem. The first build is completed and we are planning a soft go-live, end of January, in concert with the private presale for our RIFT token which will have utility in all our projects.
