Acquiring the SDK.finance Platform source code

Important. By source code we mean the source code license that will be granted to you after the completion of the code audit stage. One source code license works for one country of operation.  

Acquiring the SDK.finance source code follows a transparent, structured process that ensures you’re equipped for successful ownership and customization. Here’s a breakdown of each stage of the process:

1. Requirements analysis

To initiate the process, reach out to our team. Here’s what you can expect afterwards:
