Collaborating on the innovative electronic payment system GNU Taler for the benefit of European citizens

A new online payment system that is socially, ecologically, and fiscally responsible, to make finance easy for common people. That’s the aim of the Next Generation Internet pilot named NGI TALER. This project, coordinated by the Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e), is operated by a consortium of eleven partners from eight European countries with the objective to roll out an innovative electronic payment system for the greater benefit of European citizens, merchants, and banks.
