Bitget Wallet adds cryptocurrency purchase support for Apple Pay and Google Pay

According to Bijie.com, Bitget Wallet now supports instant purchase of crypto assets using Apple Pay, Google Pay and credit cards through the Mercuryo payment platform. Users can now purchase cryptocurrencies through various digital payment methods. According to a press release sent to crypto.news, Bitget Wallet has partnered with payment infrastructure platform Mercuryo to allow users to purchase more than 40 crypto assets directly through their wallets using Apple Pay, Google Pay, and more. In addition, users can purchase cryptocurrencies directly through their wallet using Visa or MasterCard, Revolut Pay, SEPA and PIX cards. The collaboration adds 10 additional payment options to expand payment options to bring new users to the platform. In addition to major crypto assets, the collaboration between Bitget Wallet and Mercuryo also emphasizes driving stablecoin adoption. For a limited time, users will be able to purchase 100.00 USDC (USDC) at the market mid-price displayed on Google without any charges. Jamie Elkaleh, CMO of Bitget Wallet, said stablecoins are now an important part of people’s interaction with cryptocurrencies, especially new users who were previously part of web2. That's why the company decided to launch a campaign to attract users through stablecoin products. “This initiative makes it easy for new users to buy their first 100.00 USDC directly in their wallet and start exploring its capabilities. Our partnership with Mercuryo strengthens our mission to make cryptocurrencies practical for everyone,” Elkaleh said. Stablecoins are now trading more than $7 trillion in annual transactions, with some reports even citing figures for the past two years of $27 trillion. The surge can be attributed to the drafting of a framework for governing its use by regulators from the EU to Hong Kong. In addition to Mercuryo, the company has partnered with other payment infrastructures such as Paydify and MoonPay to power purchases of stablecoins directly through digital wallets. These collaborations allow users to pay merchants immediately in stablecoins through their digital wallets. In the past, the platform also launched fiat currency withdrawal function, allowing users to transfer cryptocurrency funds directly into bank accounts through their wallets. The move aims to make digital assets more practical in daily financial transactions while giving users control over their assets.
