SINGAPORE – Matrixport, the Bitmain spin-off and a leading financial service provider for digital assets, today announced a partnership with the leading payment process company Simplex, enabling users to purchase cryptocurrencies using their credit cards directly and securely on Matrixport.
With Simplex’s support of more than 20 fiat currencies, including USD, EUR, RUB, GBP, JYP, CAD, AUD, and KRW etc., users from anywhere in the world are now able to buy cryptocurrency and enjoy the high returns offered by Matrixport’s popular investment products with ease. In one stop on Matrixport’s mobile app, users can easily buy crypto with their Visa or Master cards, invest their crypto into products such as Dual Currency products and Dip Hunter, and start earning 20-100% annualized returns or buy bitcoin at a discount. In addition to convenience, Simplex guarantees Matrixport users the highest possible degree of security for credit card purchase.
“At Matrixport, our mission is to make crypto easy for everyone. Partnering with Simplex is an important step towards it.” says John Ge, co-founder & CEO of Matrixport and also co-founder of Bitmain. “I’ll give you one example. Dual Currency – USD is one of our most popular products as people can invest in USDT/USDC and earn returns way higher than what they can get from banks deposit and most funds. Previously, our users had to purchase USDT/USDC somewhere else and transfer it to our platform. The support of Simplex has greatly streamlined the process, making these attractive returns at your fingertip. Under the current global environment of unlimited QE, people around the world are showing stronger needs for investment products with relatively high returns to counter inflation, and with the help of Simplex, we are able to provide more people with equal access of investment opportunities.”
"We are excited to partner up with Matrixport to enable our leading on-ramp solution and make the purchasing of crypto an easy, fast and safe experience globally," says Ari Last, the VP of Business Development at Simplex.
In order for more people to enjoy the convenience, Matrixport offers to reward 4 USDT to each user for their first credit card purchase, for a minimum order size of no less than USD100 (or equivalent). For more details of the event, check out Matrixport’s website or app.
