Terms of Use

Last updated: March 2026

1. Introduction and Acceptance

These Terms of Use govern your access to and use of the Railr platform, network, and associated services (collectively, the Platform). The Platform is operated by Railr Inc., a c corporation registered in the State of Wyoming, United States of America. Railr intellectual property is owned by Caradon Enterprises Inc., incorporated in the Republic of Panama, under licence to Railr Inc.

By submitting an application for access, receiving approval to participate in the Railr network, or accessing any part of the Platform, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use in full. If you do not agree to these terms, you must not access or use the Platform.

These Terms of Use apply to all participants, including institutional trading desks, algorithmic liquidity providers, family offices, and qualified high net worth individuals accessing the Platform in any capacity.

2. Nature of the Platform

Railr operates as a permissioned technology infrastructure layer for liquidity discovery in digital asset markets.

Railr is not an exchange. The Platform does not operate a public order book, continuous matching engine, or open-access trading venue.

Railr is not a broker or dealer. Railr does not execute trades on behalf of participants, does not take positions in any asset, and does not provide investment advice, financial advice, or recommendations of any kind.

Railr is not a custodian. Railr does not hold, receive, transmit, or settle participant funds, digital assets, or fiat currency at any point.

Railr is not a counterparty. All transactions conducted between participants via the Platform are entered into directly and bilaterally between the relevant participants. Railr is not a party to any transaction executed between participants.

The Platform provides technology for structured request-for-quote workflows, quote distribution, liquidity intelligence, and execution analytics. Railr's routing intelligence determines which liquidity providers receive RFQ requests. Railr does not route, direct, or execute transactions on behalf of participants. The decision to execute any transaction rests solely with the relevant participants.

3. Eligibility and Access

Access to the Railr Platform is strictly permissioned and subject to application, review, and approval at Railr's sole discretion.

  • Be a legal entity or individual of sufficient legal capacity to enter into binding agreements.

  • Comply with all applicable laws and regulations in your jurisdiction of incorporation, operation, and residence.
  • Not be subject to any sanctions, restrictions, or prohibitions that would prevent lawful participation in the Platform.

Railr reserves the right to decline any application for access without providing reasons. Approval of an application does not create any obligation on Railr to maintain access indefinitely.

Railr reserves the right to adjust routing priority, reduce network visibility, or suspend access for liquidity providers whose performance falls below acceptable thresholds.

7. No Investment Advice

Nothing on the Platform or in any communication from Railr constitutes investment advice, financial advice, trading advice, or any recommendation to buy, sell, or hold any digital asset, stablecoin, or other instrument.

Participants are solely responsible for their own investment and trading decisions. Railr strongly recommends that participants obtain independent professional advice before making any trading or investment decision.
