Wyre To Enable Simple Payment Solutions And Accelerate DeFi Growth On Algorand

By AIT News Desk On Sep 14, 2021

Wyre, the leading fiat-to-crypto and payment infrastructure company, announced the upcoming availability of simple payment solution integrations for projects across the Algorand ecosystem. Via this partnership, developers building on the Algorand blockchain will be able to quickly and easily deploy any of Wyre’s robust and simple to integrate APIs, allowing projects—like the decentralized financial applications and tokenized marketplaces Algorand was purpose-built for—to integrate payment solutions in hours, instead of months.

Beginning next month, developers on Algorand will have seamless access to Wyre’s Checkout and Card Processing APIs, which allow end users to transact in Algorand-supported currencies (including the native ALGO coin, as well as USDT and USDC on Algorand); Swap API, which enables users to swap other cryptocurrencies into Algorand native currency; and Savings API, which offers users the ability to earn yield on their Algorand assets.
