# Paygasus > Paygasus is the payments and connectivity operating system for the physical economy — one platform, one ledger, one contract. A registered Payment Facilitator and Registered ISO founded in June 2012 and headquartered in Salt Lake City, Utah, Paygasus has processed $100B+ in aggregate payment volume across 3,400+ operating locations in all 50 US states plus DC, with networking products sold and supported across 30 countries and settlement in 140+ currencies. Paygasus delivers card and ACH payment acceptance, unattended payment hardware, and managed connectivity (bonded cellular, satellite, and fixed-line networking) through a single operating layer. It is built for physical, connected, high-volume environments that traditional payment stacks are not designed to support: EV charging, transit fare collection, parking, vending and unattended retail, government and utility payments, and healthcare patient payments.
