One of the larger struggles that most crypto-asset holders find themselves having is a way to easily purchase everyday items with their digital currencies. Sure, there are certain merchants that allow for multi-asset deposits like Purse.io (who, by the way, has an integration with the ShapeShift Shifty Button).
Struggle no more! Wirex, a mainstream bitcoin debit card, has not only removed the need for a bank account, but their bitcoin debit card can now be funded with Ethereum, Monero, Dash, Litecoin and dozens of other major digital assets within just a few steps through their app.
Wirex, which is known for offering a suite of personal banking solutions for Bitcoin users, initially released their bitcoin debit card to enable every-day purchases from coffee to groceries or even the withdraw of funds from an ATM. Through its new integration with the ShapeShift API, Wirex customers can now fund their debit card with dozens of leading digital currencies.
“Bitcoin enjoys first-mover advantage and dominates the crypto market. However, as the ecosystem matures, there is also a growing community of users with other digital assets,” says Wirex Co-Founder Pavel Matveev. “One of the most popular customer requests was to make a multi-asset-friendly debit card and with ShapeShift integration we have finally made this possible.”
