Beldex has partnered with Alchemy Pay to enable fiat on-ramp payments across 170+ countries via 300+ payment channels. Alchemy Pay now allows users to buy native BDX and the BDX-BSC (BEP20) token using Google Pay, Apple Pay, Visa, Mastercard, and more. Beldex Beldex While cryptocurrency exchanges and swaps allow users to convert their crypto assets to BDX, direct purchases through fiat are still a challenge. Beldex partnership with Alchemy Pay solves this hurdle by enabling users to buy BDX directly with their fiat currency. Both on- and off-ramp payments are enabled for the BDX-BSC (BEP20) token, while on-ramps are enabled for the native BDX, with the off-ramp functionality to be added in the near future. What Are On-Ramps and Off-Ramps? Crypto to fiat on-ramps are bridges that connect traditional finance with blockchain and Web3 ecosystems, enabling users to move from fiat to Web3 hassle-free. Likewise, off-ramps are bridges that facilitate the vice versa, allowing users to convert their blockchain-based assets back into traditional fiat currencies. Both the crypto-to-fiat and fiat-to-crypto routes access a wide range of payment channels, including Google Pay, Apple Pay, credit and debit cards with Visa and Mastercard, mobile wallets such as Botimpay, DANA, and Payby, as well as regional bank transfers. Simply put, fiat on- and off-ramps connect the world of Web3 to TradiFi, allowing users to access DeFi without friction. Why Do We Need On-Ramps and Off-Ramps? Consider that you’re a user in the Philippines and you want to buy crypto, specifically BDX. With BDX, you will be able to access the Beldex ecosystem and participate in ecosystem activities such as trading, staking on DeFi platforms, staking on masternodes, and buying BNS names. Without a direct fiat-to-BDX on-ramp, users are forced to follow a complex and fragmented process. First, they’d have to convert their fiat currency into a supported cryptocurrency on a peer-to-peer trading platform or a centralized exchange. Then, they’d have to transfer that crypto over to an exchange that supports BDX. And from there, they’d have to swap into BDX and move it elsewhere, depending on the user’s intended use. This multi-step process is time-consuming and creates entry barriers that prevent new users from participating in the ecosystem. For example, in the Philippines, you can buy BDX using coins.ph cryptocurrency exchange, which facilitates native BDX on- and off-ramps. But if you’re in the SEPA region, where BDX is still not supported on a regional cryptocurrency exchange, you’d find it quite difficult to convert your fiat into BDX. Our partnership with Alchemy Pay solves this problem in one swell swoop. buy BDX using coins.ph cryptocurrency exchange, buy BDX using coins.ph cryptocurrency exchange How Does Integration with Alchemy Pay Help? Beldex’s partnership with Alchemy Pay eliminates the need for users to go through multiple exchanges and payment channels. Instead of buying a supported cryptocurrency like a stablecoin first, transferring across intermediaries, and finally acquiring BDX, they can readily buy native BDX coins through Alchemy Pay with their existing bank account, credit or debit cards, Google Pay, Apple Pay, or other supported wallets. This transforms a complex, exchange-heavy onboarding journey into a seamless fiat-to-BDX experience, increasing accessibility for users across different regions. Building an Accessible Ecosystem Beldex envisions building an accessible ecosystem for everyone on every corner of the world by removing barriers that discourage people from participating in Web3. While privacy is at the core of what we build, ensuring accessibility through practical integrations helps users seamlessly enter, interact with, and benefit from the Beldex ecosystem without friction. Integrations like these make acquiring BDX a one-click process instead of a daunting obstacle. Because, at the end of the day, we understand that users have very little time and will not be able to follow a complex process just to acquire crypto. Beldex aims to make acquiring BDX simple, easy, and fast, regardless of where our users are located. Enabling crypto for all. Enabling privacy in every online interaction.
