BitPay, the cryptocurrency payment service provider, has expanded its global reach through a collaboration with Banxa, enabling retail investors worldwide to purchase more than 175 cryptocurrencies. The digital currencies, including Shiba Inu (SHIB), Dogecoin (DOGE), XRP, Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH) and others based on 20 blockchains, can now be purchased through BitPay’s Wallet app and website using multiple international bank payment methods.
The partnership significantly expands accessibility to users in countries such as Brazil, New Zealand, Turkey, Africa and Australia. Supported payment methods include iDEAL, SEPA, ACH, Interac, Faster Payments Systems, PayID, POLi, PIX and Turkey Bank Transfer.
In a separate agreement with the AMC cinema network, BitPay has also enabled crypto payments for tickets to Taylor Swift’s concert tour movie. Cryptocurrencies such as Shiba Inu, XRP and Bitcoin are among the accepted forms of payment for this purpose. This move further demonstrates the growing acceptance of digital currencies in various commercial sectors.
