by

It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single person in possession of a stablecoin wallet, must be in want of a reliable fiat-to-crypto transfer service. And so, dear reader, we are delighted to announce that Transak, a most esteemed provider of crypto-to-fiat transfers and conversion infrastructure, has formed a most felicitous partnership with MiniPay, Opera’s dollar stablecoin wallet.

Transak’s Fiat Infrastructure Now Live in Opera’s MiniPay App

Transak, a global fiat-to-crypto payments infrastructure vendor of great renown, has entered into a most strategic collaboration with Opera’s MiniPay, a popular end-user USD stablecoin wallet built on the Celo blockchain. This most auspicious partnership promises to bring about a new era of convenience and accessibility in the world of stablecoins.

If you’re new around here: We’re Transak—your bridge to #Web3, connecting fiat to crypto worldwide. 🌐

Welcome Onboard! 🚀

As this most thrilling partnership kicks off, Transak enables operations with Celo Dollar (cUSD), Tether USD (USDT), and USD Coin (USDC), those most mainstream USD-pegged stablecoins. Moreover, it powers on- and off-ramping for cryptocurrency users in 50+ countries and territories across the globe, a truly remarkable feat.

And, dear reader, the pièce de résistance is that on- and off-ramping with zero fees will be available for crypto owners for a limited time, allowing them to engage with stablecoins without the usual barriers of fees and further driving adoption by making cross-border payments more affordable. 🤑

The intention behind this introductory zero-fee campaign, we are told, is to encourage more people to experience stablecoins’ characteristic near-instant cross-border payments and settlements. A most noble pursuit, indeed.

Carlo de Luca Gabrielli, Global Director of Sales at Transak, highlights that the new partnership unlocks amazing opportunities for personalities and firms interested in working with crypto:

We believe financial tools should be accessible to everyone, everywhere. By joining forces with MiniPay, we’re not only making digital finance affordable but also promoting inclusiveness for communities that need it the most. 🌎

MiniPay, we are delighted to note, offers near-instant, low-cost transfers of stablecoins with fees as low as $0.001 per transaction, thanks to the efficiency of the Celo blockchain. A truly remarkable achievement, if we do say so ourselves.

MiniPay Surpasses Five Million Activated Crypto Wallets

With Transak’s product integrated, users can top up their MiniPay wallet by purchasing stablecoins directly with local currencies using various payment methods, including credit/debit cards, Google Pay, and Apple Pay. A most convenient arrangement, indeed.

In addition, users are able to withdraw funds by converting stablecoins into local currencies and transferring them directly to their cards and bank accounts. A most satisfactory state of affairs, if we do say so ourselves.

Jørgen Arnesen, EVP of Mobile at Opera, welcomes the partnership and invites all users of his ecosystem to try fiat-to-crypto operations:

We’re thrilled to collaborate with Transak to offer MiniPay users a wider range of local payment options as we expand our stablecoin wallet to more countries worldwide. By eliminating fees, we’re breaking down financial barriers, making cross-border transactions and remittances more accessible and affordable, and driving the adoption of stablecoins even further. 🚀

Since its launch in September 2023, MiniPay has surpassed five million activated wallets, reflecting strong adoption and demand for low-cost, borderless transactions. The ultralight wallet has also achieved remarkable success in emerging markets. A most impressive feat, indeed.
