Alfacash is already offering the trading of 30+ cryptocurrencies for fiat (and vice versa) in a fully non-custodial and automatic process. Several payment methods, including credit cards, are available. Now, the users will enjoy a wider offer when using this payment, thanks to the new partnership between Alfacash, Coinify, and Mercuryo.
Founded in 2014, the Denmark-based Coinify is a global virtual currency player offering two-way virtual currency to fiat conversion services. They take care of all the hurdles (KYC, AML, Source of Funds, etc.) to offer seamless trading for the users.
For its part, Mercuryo offers a cross-border payment network, including fiat and crypto payments. It was founded in 2018, and already has offices in Estonia and the United Kingdom. Last January, they expanded their services to the United States as well. Mercuryo promises “to manage crypto without handling compliance” to their customers.
By partnering with Alfacash, the users of this exchange will have the chance to select the best option to pay for their cryptocurrencies with a credit card.
