On Monday, the platform dealing with the processing of online payments publicized information of its new partnership with VaultBank, a blockchain startup which creates and trades financial tools. The new business union will allow merchants to accept crypto for their goods, including the first top four coins: BTC, XRP, ETH and XLM.
World of commerce in need of crypto
The president of SpotOn, RJ Horsley, believes that these days the digital market requires that a payment operator can take a wide range of payment means, including crypto. He intends to let merchants and customers use crypto without changing the SpotOn platform for a different payment processing system.
Besides, the new technology that comes from VaultBank will allow converting digital coins into fiat currencies — which will be convenient for merchants.
Paying in crypto is expected to make buyers happy.
