TransFi expands European fiat payment methods in partnership with Januar
Today, TransFi and Januar unveiled a partnership aimed at expanding the crypto financial services landscape. TransFi, a leading crypto on-ramp and off-ramp solutions provider, is teaming up with Januar, a renowned financial infrastructure partner for crypto businesses, to deliver enhanced accessibility and compliance within the industry.
TransFi holds vast coverage of native payment methods across 100+ countries and coupled with Januar’s compliant payment services and instant settlement network, this collaboration is set to enhance the standards of crypto financial services. By integrating major payment methods in the Eurozone region, the partnership will enable TransFi to facilitate and expand crypto and Web3 access for users globally.
Januar’s payment institution license from the Danish FSA adds a layer of regulatory credibility to the collaboration. Together, the strengths of both companies will contribute to bridging traditional financial systems with the decentralized crypto world.
“We’re really excited to have this partnership with Januar, which gives us access to the Eurozone market where we’re operating. Their innovative products are really critical in growing our European business and we also deeply appreciate their strong customer support, which is super helpful during critical moments. Overall we’re looking forward to a long term collaboration together”, said Garry Huang, COO of TransFi.
Simon Ousager, Co-CEO & Founder of Januar, emphasised the value of the partnership: “While cryptocurrencies are global in nature, the same can not be said for the fiat payments required to purchase the cryptocurrencies in the first place. We have been very impressed by TransFi’s global approach to solving this problem and we are excited to support their mission by providing modern fiat payment infrastructure right here in the Eurozone.”
