Crypto is powerful, but its user experience is often too confusing and overwhelming. Although custodial platforms—where a company holds your funds and keys for you—are simple, they take control away from the user. Self-custodial platforms—where the user alone manages their assets—provide ownership, but users have to safeguard seed phrases, manage private keys, and handle recovery entirely on their own. For everyday users, that’s simply too complicated.
For years, Web3 developers have treated this as an impossible choice: usability at the cost of self-custody, or self-custody at the cost of simplicity.
Rizon refuses to settle. Together with Privy, we deliver both—seamless access and full user control.
Privy + Rizon: Web2 simplicity, Web3 power
Thanks to our integration with Privy, Rizon users get the best of both worlds. Privy enables familiar login flows—Google, Apple, or email sign-ins—while creating a fully self-custodial wallet behind the scenes. The result? Onboarding that feels like logging into any modern app, powered by secure Web3 infrastructure.
No extensions. No seed phrases. No crypto knowledge required. Just self-custody, simplified.
From sign-up to spending in under a minute
Here’s how it works:
- A user signs up with an email, Apple, or Google account.
- A wallet is created immediately via Privy.
- USDC is sent to the wallet or deposited by the user.
- The wallet is instantly ready for spending via Rizon's Visa-enabled card.
All of this happens within 60 seconds—no apps to install, no browser extensions, no friction.
With Privy, the user's private keys are encrypted and stored securely on the device. They are never visible to Rizon, Privy, or any third party. Recovery is built in, and backup mechanisms ensure safety even if a device is lost. Users control their funds at all times.
Self-custody no longer means complicated. It means private, portable, and user-owned.
Why this matters globally
In regions like Latin America, where financial systems are volatile and stablecoins provide much-needed stability, this model changes everything. Users can now hold digital dollars and spend them globally, with full control and a minimal learning curve. It’s onboarding for the next billion users—especially those who need stablecoins the most.
Bottom line: a new standard for self-custodial UX
Rizon and Privy are reshaping what’s possible in crypto onboarding. By removing friction while preserving self-custody, we’re setting a new standard for usability in Web3. Instant access, complete control, and familiar login flows—all without compromising user ownership.
