XRPayNet

XRPayNet offers a crypto-to-fiat payment solution built on the XRP Ledger. It allows businesses to accept cryptocurrency payments in exchange for goods and services. This solution allows cryptocurrency holders to spend the asset class across selected stores. The nascent asset class is converted immediately into the business’ preferred conventional currency once payment is made due to the high volatility associated with crypto. 

In a statement on its website, XRPayNet claims it is “redefining the industry standard for financial transactions” and will also “facilitate the conversion of consumer crypto payments made to businesses into their preferred conventional currency.” 

Per XRPayNet, it converts cryptocurrency payments to fiat through its bank card and mobile application, thus allowing businesses to continue using their existing payment processing systems. 

In a recent tweet, XRPayNet stated that it is building a bridge between crypto and fiat transactions while indicating plans to “incorporate” a Buy-Now-Pay-Later (BNPL) service.

Growing Crypto Adoption in UAE

XRPayNet’s move to develop a crypto payment system for businesses in the UAE comes as the region is fast becoming a hub for cryptocurrency. According to data from Statista, UAE has the fifth-largest global cryptocurrency adoption rate at 34% this year.

Following the widespread adoption of cryptocurrencies in the UAE, several crypto-related companies, including Kraken and Sygnum, were granted licenses by the UAE government.

Cryptocurrency bank Sygnum said it was granted in-principle approval by the UAE’s Financial Services Regulatory Authority (FSRA) to offer crypto services in the region.
