CryptoRefills Launches Fantom Payment Option
Amsterdam
Amsterdam, November 4, 2021, CryptoRefills, a global player in mobile top-up and gift card retail that pioneers blockchain payments, has added support for payments over Fantom Network to offer its users a new super-fast and low-cost payment option.
Due to risks of congestion and long confirmation times, some of the most popular blockchain platforms have seen increasingly high transaction fees. As a result, everyday shopping with Bitcoin, Ethereum, or any ERC20 tokens including USDT, and USDC can be expensive for users when purchasing goods and services. By pioneering the retail side of blockchain payments and focusing on optimizing user experience via the newest blockchain payment technologies, CryptoRefills has integrated Fantom, a high-performance, scalable, and secure smart-contract platform.
A recent study by CryptoRefills has revealed a firm inverse correlation between the volume of the transactions waiting in the queue and the crypto-shoppers’ likelihood of using cryptocurrency to pay for goods and services. Fantom, which is designed to overcome these limitations, is an ideal solution to offer a great payment experience for crypto shoppers when purchasing goods and services with stablecoins thanks to its high speed, fast time to finality, and low transaction costs.
Furthermore, with a rapid DeFi ecosystem on Fantom, its users can now use CryptoRefills to bridge the Fantom DeFi domain with real-world goods and services.
