Uquid, a startup that allows customers to pay for goods and services with cryptocurrencies, has recently announced that its customers will be able to use Ripple’s XRP for payments. Thus, XRP holders don't have to convert their favorite token to other coins or fiat currencies in order buy groceries or top up their phone number.

A global reach

Instant mobile recharge with XRP will be available in more than 150 countries. The recently introduced service will support 600 operators, including such juggernauts as AT&T and Vodafone.

A global reach

However, other services will only be available in separate countries. For example, only residents of Indonesia will be able to pay for their insurance and electricity bills with XRP.

A big deal (seriously)
