This development will enable wallets, decentralised apps (dApps), and fintech platforms to integrate with Wirex Pay’s infrastructure.
The integration will allow these platforms to issue non-custodial cards and facilitate real-time stablecoin payments on a global scale.
The Wirex Pay Payment API is leveraging blockchain technology alongside Visa‘s acceptance network, which includes over 80 million merchants across more than 200 countries.
This collaboration aims to provide a seamless payment experience for users worldwide.
Integration partners can now offer their users the ability to conduct transactions in stablecoins without the risks associated with custody.
