What is DAI?
DAI is the original decentralized, dollar-pegged stablecoin created by MakerDAO (now Sky/Maker protocol). Unlike centralized stablecoins, DAI is generated through smart contracts when users deposit crypto collateral, meaning no single company issues or controls it. 1 DAI always targets exactly $1.00.
With over $5 billion in circulation, DAI is the most widely adopted decentralized stablecoin. It runs on multiple blockchains including Ethereum, Base, Polygon, and Arbitrum, enabling instant, low-cost transfers anywhere in the world without custodial risk.
DeFi-native businesses and cypherpunks choose DAI for invoicing, payments, and treasury management because no entity can freeze or censor DAI transactions. DAI provides the speed and cost advantages of blockchain with dollar stability and true decentralization, making it the ideal token for censorship-resistant DAI billing software and invoice payments.

Why use DAI for invoicing?
DAI is the preferred stablecoin for decentralization-minded businesses. Here is why companies choose to create DAI invoices.
Dollar stability, zero volatility
DAI maintains a 1:1 peg with the US dollar through crypto over-collateralization and autonomous stabilization mechanisms. When you send a DAI invoice for $10,000, your client pays exactly 10,000 DAI and you receive exactly $10,000 in value. No price swings, no conversion surprises. Perfect for business invoicing.
True decentralization
DAI is the only major stablecoin that no single company can freeze, blacklist, or confiscate. Governed by MakerDAO token holders, DAI operates through transparent smart contracts with no centralized control. This makes DAI the preferred choice for businesses that value financial sovereignty and censorship resistance in their DAI billing software.
Fully transparent reserves
Every DAI token is backed by verifiable on-chain collateral. Anyone can audit DAI reserves in real time by inspecting the Maker protocol smart contracts. No quarterly attestations or trust in third-party auditors required. When you send a DAI invoice, you and your clients can independently verify the system backing every token.
Multi-chain availability
DAI is available on multiple blockchains. On StableInvoicing, you can create DAI invoices on 7 chains: Ethereum, Base, Polygon, Arbitrum, Optimism, BNB Chain, and Avalanche. Your clients choose the chain with the lowest gas fees, often under $0.01 on L2 networks.

DAI invoicing FAQ
Common questions about creating and sending DAI invoices.
What is a DAI invoice?
A DAI invoice is a professional invoice that allows your client to pay in DAI, the original decentralized dollar-pegged stablecoin created by MakerDAO (now Sky/Maker protocol). Instead of sharing bank details, you provide a blockchain wallet address and your client sends DAI directly on-chain. The payment is automatically detected and your invoice is marked as paid. DAI invoices are ideal for businesses and freelancers who value decentralization and censorship resistance.
How do I receive DAI payments?
Sign up for a free StableInvoicing account, add your EVM wallet address in settings, then create an invoice with DAI selected as the payment token. Send the invoice to your client. They receive a payment page with a QR code and your wallet address. Once they send DAI, the payment is automatically detected on-chain and your invoice status updates to paid.
Which chain is cheapest for DAI payments?
Base, Polygon, Arbitrum, and Optimism all offer DAI transfers for under $0.01 in gas fees. Base is our top recommendation because it has deep DAI liquidity and the lowest transaction costs. Ethereum mainnet is the most established chain but costs $2-5 per DAI transfer. For most DAI invoices, we recommend Base or Polygon to minimize costs for your clients.
Is DAI truly decentralized?
Yes. DAI is governed by MakerDAO (now the Sky/Maker protocol), a decentralized autonomous organization where token holders vote on protocol changes. Unlike USDC or USDT, no single company issues or controls DAI. It is generated through smart contracts when users deposit collateral. No entity can freeze, blacklist, or confiscate your DAI. All reserves are verifiable on-chain in real time, making DAI the most transparent and censorship-resistant major stablecoin.
Is DAI safe for business payments?
DAI has maintained its dollar peg since its launch in 2017 through crypto over-collateralization and autonomous smart contract mechanisms. With over $5 billion in circulation, DAI is one of the most battle-tested stablecoins in DeFi. Its collateral includes ETH, stETH, USDC, and real-world assets, all verifiable on-chain at any time. DAI is widely supported on every major exchange and DeFi protocol.
Do I need to pay taxes on DAI income?
Yes, DAI income is generally taxable in most jurisdictions, just like any other business revenue. The advantage of receiving payments in DAI versus volatile cryptocurrencies is simplicity: since DAI is pegged 1:1 to the US dollar, there are typically no capital gains or foreign exchange complications. 1 DAI received equals $1 of income. StableInvoicing generates professional PDF invoices that serve as documentation for your accounting records. Always consult a qualified tax professional for guidance specific to your jurisdiction.
