Why build on Kudu

Less plumbing. More product.

01

Speed to market

Go live in days. One engineer, a few endpoints.

02

Fully white-label

Your brand, your domain, your UI — Kudu is invisible.

03

Compliance built in

We handle verification and hold the licenses, so your users don't have to.

04

Resilient infrastructure

Run on European cloud (Scaleway) with high uptime and prebuilt UI components.

05

A clean API

REST + JSON, idempotency keys, webhooks, SDKs.

Verified access

Docs are open. Production keys are earned.

Anyone can read the docs and build in the sandbox today. Because Kudu moves real money, we verify every business before issuing production keys — it's protection for you and your users, not a gate for its own sake.
