“We’ve upgraded the underlying infrastructure and transformed the process-flow to a new gold standard that optimizes cross-border payments”
Traditional payment systems and regional currencies are laden with friction, delays, and high cross-border processing fees when exchanging value in an increasingly connected and global marketplace. With BitGold Business Accounts, BitGold has optimized global commerce by reducing friction of value exchange in cross-border payments and enabling merchants to seamlessly use vaulted-gold bullion as a universal and efficient payment rail.
The new technology includes a suite of payment applications that will include invoicing, payroll, e-commerce and checkout solutions. BitGold Business Accounts makes global business and consumer payments using gold simple and cost-effective. Built on a highly scalable infrastructure, the Canadian-born platform now allows merchants to transact to and from more than 150 countries and 100 currencies globally in gold for one low cost debit-processing fee.
“We want to accelerate business growth by making it easy to request and accept payments, including micropayments, around the world instantly using a secure, closed-loop network,” said BitGold Co-Founder Josh Crumb. “In our view, every business should only have to consider two forms of money when accepting payment for a transaction – a local currency integrated with their local banking system, and gold, the world’s most recognized, stable and best performing international money. BitGold’s global debit network is empowering merchants who might otherwise be limited by their location. This advance reduces the fees and hassle part of ‘foreign’ in foreign exchange.”
BitGold’s digital ledger technology utilizes a ‘hub and spoke’ model for cross-border payment flows, with vaulted-gold enabling low-risk and low-volatility settlement options for all transactions. BitGold’s closed-loop debit network enables instant value-settlement of any transaction into vaulted gold. Businesses can easily settle back to a local currency or bank account, or push supplier payments and payroll out anywhere in the world.
“We’ve upgraded the underlying infrastructure and transformed the process-flow to a new gold standard that optimizes cross-border payments,” said Darrell MacMullin, CEO of BitGold. “We’re obsessed with injecting efficiencies into global commerce, so we created a better way for people and now businesses to take advantage of the benefits of using gold safely and securely using our network.”
The BitGold platform decreases volatility and enables payments in gold, the world’s best performing currency, which won’t be impacted by exchange rates, fees or inflation.
