# Private Payments

Enables **private and compliant token transfers**, including vesting token transfers or direct payments.

**Benefits:**

* Keeps sender and recipient identities private
* Supports anonymous transactions while maintaining compliance
* Allows flexible use of tokens within the ecosystem

**Example:**

Remote work offers great opportunities, enabling employees to be compensated with cryptocurrency.

However, this payment method can have consequences, including:

* Internal toxicity from employees tracking each other's transfers
* External knowledge of the company's pay structure
* Tracking the flows back to the company's treasury wallet(s), thereby exposing sensitive treasury information

Now on-chain payroll and payment providers can elect to use Singularity's tech stack to allow their to send and receive on-chain payments in a compliant, confidential manner.
