Blockchain payment technologies can in general bring benefits in terms of reducing payment costs, risks, and processing times. Coinify, specifically, offers businesses and individuals easy access to blockchain currencies via fiat money exchange on its payment processing and trade services. The company currently supports 15 blockchain currencies (including bitcoin, ether and ripple), making it one of the most versatile companies in the industry.
"The fact that our current investors are joined by a classic yet very visionary bank dating back to 1856 sends a strong message to both banking and blockchain communities. We plan to use this investment to sustain our leading position in Europe and expand our blockchain payment and trade products into Asia," says Mark Højgaard, Co-Founder and CEO of Coinify.
