Binance has partnered with Worldpay to offer seamless access to digital assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum via Apple Pay and Google Pay on both its desktop platform and mobile app. Users can now purchase crypto directly using their existing credit or debit cards linked to these popular digital wallets in a faster, more convenient way. 📱
This move is particularly impactful in emerging markets where smartphone adoption is rapidly growing and traditional banking infrastructure remains limited. By leveraging the trust users have for everyday payments like e-commerce and food delivery, Binance aims to ease entry into crypto with familiar tools.
Binance’s fiat expansion strategy highlights its commitment to making crypto more accessible globally. With over 1,000 payment methods and service launches in over 20 new countries, the platform is expanding its reach significantly. This latest upgrade also strengthens Binance’s goal of building a robust and inclusive fiat gateway for users around the world.
Binance’s expansion comes at a time when mobile wallet usage is on the rise. Worldpay, with its active presence in the crypto space (processing $1.3 billion in stablecoin transactions in 2024), is strategically integrating into blockchain infrastructure, including potential validator roles on select networks. The company is also stepping up its verification efforts for blockchain transactions to further solidify its role in the digital asset ecosystem.
