Okay, real talk: I built a payment platform template that pretends KYC doesn’t exist.
It’s called NoVerif (because naming things is hard), and it’s for devs who want to prototype fast—not break financial laws.
What’s Inside?
- Email/password auth (Firebase)
- Virtual bank account cosplay (ACH approval flow)
- Crypto wallet connections (for that ~degen~ vibe)
- Invoice generation + admin dashboard
Tech stack: Next.js, Firebase, Tailwind—zero surprises.
Why This Exists
I wanted to mock a payment system in hours, not months. But let’s be clear:
- 🚨 Real payments need KYC, compliance, lawyers, etc.
- 🚨 This is a TEMPLATE for demos/hackathons (or your startup’s first PowerPoint).
Who’s This For?
- You, iterating on a fintech idea before bringing in the compliance squad
- You, teaching web dev and need a realistic (but legal) payments demo
- You, ignoring my warnings (please don’t)

Hot take: Prototyping ≠ production. What’s the fastest way you’ve hacked around compliance? (Or am I the only one cutting corners? 😬)
Love how you emphasized that prototyping is totally different from production—KYC is a must for real launches!
