VANCOUVER, British Columbia–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Airswift Technology Limited, a leading Web3.0 native payment company, and Cloud Payments, a digital payment and banking technology platform provider have joined forces to enable cryptocurrency spenders with easy access to crypto at points-of-sale using VISA and MasterCard payment methods.
The collaboration will facilitate crypto-based purchases by providing crypto on-ramping and NFT purchases using VISA and MasterCard with optimized exchange rates. It offers more convenience to crypto spenders when shopping for merchandise and digital assets.
“Millions of Web2.0 consumers are ready to onboard Web3.0, but are unfamiliar with the current Decentralized Finance (DeFi) on-ramp,” said Dr. Yan Zhang, co-founder and CEO of Airswift. “That’s why we’re working together to integrate Cloud Payments’ simple, credit card-based crypto purchase tools into our easy-to-use crypto payment platform. This feature allows you to seamlessly on-ramp and spend crypto right at checkout without ever leaving the Airswift platform, thus reducing friction for newcomers to the market.
“Our patented technology platform enables Web2.0 consumers and merchants to quickly transition to emerging Web3.0 payment and commerce methods as that segment of our industry continues to accelerate that growth. Our partnership with Airswift will create a best-in-class crypto payment experience,” said Mike Love, co-founder and CEO of Cloud Payments.
The on-ramp service will be launched first in North America and Europe.
