Ramp Will Make Crypto Buying Easy
The whole idea of purchasing bitcoin and its altcoin cousins should be easy. One pulls out their credit card, enters the information, and done! The money should be transferred to their digital wallet for use and investment purposes. Unfortunately, there are some companies out there that make things more complicated than they need to be.
This is rough for many reasons, a big one being that digital currency was designed to be accessible to all. If there are individuals out there that cannot access crypto, then the network and the system has failed, and they will not be able to take advantage of the benefits available to them. Thus, they are stuck in a traditional world of finance where third parties and middlemen have more say over their money than they do.
The big thing about Ramp is it offers a wide array of crypto including bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, Binance Coin, and others. In addition, the platform charges low fees and is compliant with all present financial regulations (so users can rest assured the SEC probably won’t come after the firm anytime soon).
Lastly, KYC (know your customer) protocols are not in place for most transactions, meaning the buys should be quick and painless for most, and there are no lock periods, so the money can be used right away if need be. The CEO of Ark Fi – a person simply known as “Atlas” – explained in an interview:
We are excited to launch Ramp and make it easier for consumers to buy cryptocurrency. Ramp is a valuable resource for anyone who wants to get started in decentralized finance, despite the recent restrictions by some banks and centralized exchanges.
While talking, he threw in his two cents regarding the digital currency lawsuits against both Binance and Coinbase. He said:
We believe these restrictions are misguided. Cryptocurrency is a legitimate asset class, and consumers should have the freedom to buy and sell it.
Among the payment methods that Ramp accepts are credit and debit cards, Astro Pay, Neteller, and Skrill. It also boasts a user-friendly interface, meaning those with little to no crypto-buying experience shouldn’t find the platform too difficult to operate. The company also offers 24/7 customer service to help users with any issues they should encounter (a real clincher considering how many crypto firms have gotten rid of their customer service departments).
A Proud Addition to the Industry
Atlas concluded with:
We are committed to providing consumers with a safe and easy way to buy cryptocurrency. Ramp is the perfect solution for anyone who wants to quickly get started in the crypto world.
