CryptoBucks offers customers the option to pay with Crypto
By Pavithra R
Cryptobucks, developed by South Florida’s Aliant Payments and Shokworks, has announced a new addition to its app, making it one of the first payment applications in which a merchant can accept Visa, MasterCard, American Express and cryptocurrency payments all in one easy-to-use app.
Aliant, a traditional payment processing company founded in 2003, partnered with Shokworks, an industry disrupter in digital spaces, to develop Cryptobucks, a blockchain technology payment app that has enabled worldwide acceptance of Bitcoin, Litecoin and Ethereum since 2018. The app converts digital currency into U.S. dollars and deposits it to merchants’ bank accounts within 48 hours. A future update will allow merchants to decide what percentage they want to liquidate vs. remain in digital currency.
“What makes Cryptobucks so great isn’t just that it’s the first cryptocurrency-and-credit-card-to-merchant transaction app in the market, but that it comes from a trusted payment processing company with nearly two decades of experience,” said Aliant Payments CEO Brown.
The payment processing process is easy for the merchant and customer. Merchants do not need their own digital wallets, Cryptobucks does all the work. Customers with digital wallets can complete transactions in less than a minute, and credit card users in less time. Cryptobucks works with all digital wallets, so consumers do not have to download a specific wallet to pay with crypto, and can use Coinbase, Binance, Kraken, etc.
“Using cryptocurrency is perfect for sports teams, airlines, gaming organizations, automotive sales, jewelry, real estate and more. Cryptobucks is safe, secure and easy-to-use. We’re proud to work with Aliant Payments on this groundbreaking app,” said Shokworks COO Daniel Laplana.
