About

Ordering a pizza or booking a holiday may seem simple—but all online transactions require access to a bank account. Yet, over 2 billion adults worldwide remain unbanked, relying solely on physical cash and excluded from the digital economy.

Boom Technologies Ltd (“Boom”) bridges this divide by digitising cash and connecting it to the global digital ecosystem. Our platform enables individuals and merchants to securely spend, accept, and save cash online—without needing a bank account—while upholding strict compliance with AML/KYC regulations. Every transaction is traceable, verifiable, and aligned with local and international financial standards.

By bridging the cash and digital economies, Boom enables cross-border interoperability, expands access to essential services, and promotes broader financial inclusion—all while maintaining full regulatory integrity.

We place a strong emphasis on consumer protection, embedding safeguards, transparency, and data privacy into the core of our systems to ensure trust and accountability.

In addition, Boom facilitates the collection of VAT on previously untaxed, cash-based transactions, unlocking new public revenue streams for governments to invest in healthcare, education, and infrastructure.

Our tokenised cash products—such as bGBP—are backed 1:1 by GBP-denominated reserves held in-country for the benefit of holders. These reserves are managed in a dedicated Boom Reserve Fund, custodied by regulated financial institutions, and may include short-term government bonds, gold, Bitcoin, and cash.

Boom Technologies Ltd, registered in England & Wales (Company No. 15034868), is not a bank, does not operate as one, and does not intend to become one. Boom is not authorised or regulated by the UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA)

The Fact

When the Internet was commercialised in the mid-90s with payments provided only by the banking system, it excluded a large portion of the global population—those without access to banking or living in cash-based economies—preventing their participation in e-commerce.

Hal Finney's invention of Bitcoin and blockchain technology made online payments without banks possible.

Boom has commercialised this innovation as the commerce, payment and settlement system for cash, enabling online transactions without the need for traditional banking.
