VANCOUVER, British Columbia–(BUSINESS WIRE).
The collaboration will simplify crypto-based purchasing by providing crypto on-ramping and NFT purchases using VISA and MasterCard with optimized exchange rates. This offers cryptocurrency consumers greater convenience when purchasing retail goods and digital assets.
“Millions of Web2.0 users are ready to join Web3.0, but are unfamiliar with the existing decentralized finance (DeFi) ramps,” said Dr. Yan Zhang, co-founder and CEO of Airswift. “That’s why we worked together to integrate Cloud Payments’ simple credit card-based crypto buying tools into our easy-to-use crypto payment platform. This feature allows you to seamlessly open and spend crypto at checkout without leaving Airswift’s platform, reducing friction for new market entrants.”
“Our patented technology platform enables Web2.0 consumers and merchants to easily transition to new Web3.0 payment and commerce methods as this segment of our industry continues to grow rapidly. Our partnership with Airswift will create a best-in-class crypto payment experience,” said Mike Love, Co-Founder and CEO of Cloud Payments.
The ramp service will first be rolled out in North America and Europe.
