Intro to Gleo
What is Gleo? Payments and real assets on Robinhood Chain
Why Gleo exists
A network judged by use, not by promises
The test for Gleo is simple: can someone in one country pay someone in another before they finish reading this sentence, for less than a cent? Everything else follows from that.
So we chose a fast, widely supported chain instead of starting a new one, and spend our effort where people actually touch money: address checks, fee previews, asset verification and clear receipts.
Building on Gleo
Four things Gleo is built to do
Built for payments
LiveSend ETH or USDG to any Robinhood Chain address from your own wallet, with the address checked and the fee shown in dollars first.
How Gleo payments workBuilt for asset tokenization
PracticeDesign a token for a fund share, a bond or an invoice, with freeze, clawback and holder approval fixed at creation.
How Gleo tokenization worksBuilt for open finance
PracticeLend, borrow and pool tokenized assets through contracts anyone can read. Practise the full flow today without a transaction.
How DeFi on Gleo worksBuilt for developers
Chain details, RPC endpoints and contract notes in one place, so you can wire a payment flow into your own app.

The ecosystem
Open to wallets, anchors, issuers and builders
Wallets, cash-in and cash-out businesses, asset issuers and developers all connect to the same ledger. Nobody needs our permission to read it or to build on it, and every live figure on this site can be checked on the public explorer.
Any EVM wallet that can add a custom network works with Gleo. Add Robinhood Chain (chain id 4663) once and every live tool is available.
