“XinFin is a great addition to our ecosystem; there is a macro shift that is happening in the market right now; our vision is to transform the payments space. For over 30 years, the world of payment remained unchanged, but with innovation and technology, we can improve the lives of everyone globally; this is a tactical raise and having the right people back us long term,” stated Anish Jain, Managing Director and CEO of WadzPay.
With the collaboration, Wadzpay hopes to tap on XinFin’s global network and add payment solutions like Trade Finance and Buy Now Pay Later (BNPL) options to its current list of issuance, acceptance, and remittance payment products for enterprises like merchants, banks and other financial institutions. The partnership will also allow the use of XDC tokens on the WadzPay platform, which currently supports 250 cryptocurrencies.
“Blockchain technology is going to be the backbone for the financial world and XinFin as a core blockchain layer is happy to support all use cases to get more blockchain adoption into the financial world,” says Atul Khekade, Cofounder XinFin Network. “B2B technology-driven digital payment solution platforms like WadzPay will help to get mass adoption for the blockchain technology” he also added.
