HiddenSwap has released HiddenPay, a non-custodial tool that allows creators to generate donation buttons and payment links for receiving crypto funds. The platform supports cross-currency transactions, enabling supporters to pay in different coins than those selected by the recipient.
Why it matters
The service removes friction for digital creators by eliminating account registration and identity requirements while enabling interoperability between disparate cryptocurrencies. It provides a technical solution for collecting global payments from supporters who may not hold the specific assets a creator prefers.
HiddenPay is free to use for creators, with swap fees integrated directly into the exchange rate displayed to the payer. The tool supports diverse payment amounts, illustrated by examples such as 0.25 XMR, across all supported cryptocurrency coins.
The players
HiddenSwap
A developer of privacy-focused cryptocurrency tools and non-custodial financial services.
The details
Creators initialize the tool by entering a payout wallet address and selecting a preferred payout coin to generate a payment link or embeddable box. When a supporter pays using a different currency, the service performs an automated swap to settle the funds into the creator's designated coin. The tool is designed for privacy, functioning within the Tor Browser without JavaScript, and relies on an owner key system instead of traditional account credentials.

Market Landscape
HiddenPay follows the trend of decentralizing payment processing by stripping away the KYC and account-based requirements typical of centralized merchant gateways. It operates in parallel with privacy-centric tools like the Tor Browser, prioritizing transaction autonomy over integrated business reporting.
Business operators should note that once a payout address is set, it cannot be edited, making the initial configuration a critical control point. Consider whether this non-custodial model aligns with your internal reconciliation and accounting processes for receiving digital assets.
The takeaway
The move demonstrates a shift toward zero-registration commerce for digital creators and non-profits. Evaluate your organization's need for privacy-first payment infrastructure and ensure you have secure storage for your unique owner key before initializing a payment dashboard.
