Crypto.com – New Developments
Singapore-based cryptocurrency exchange Crypto.com has introduced a new feature in its mobile app, enabling users in the United States to utilize over 30 cryptocurrencies, including CRO, BTC, ETH, and USDT, for payments at more than 150 renowned companies.
Users can earn up to 10% in Pay Rewards, paid in CRO, with a monthly rewards limit of $100. The feature includes a one-time-use card that can be used at notable brands like Apple, Nike, Walmart, Ray-Ban, and GameStop.
At present, the payment feature is exclusively accessible to users situated in the United States. However, Crypto.com has expressed their intentions to expand its availability to other markets in the near future, without disclosing specific details regarding the next country.
The company emphasizes that it retains the right to make changes to this offer, clarifying that there is no formal partnership between Crypto.com and the participating brands involved in this promotion.
Last month in May 2023, Crypto.com also announced support for new tokens on the platform.
