The simple language of the latest function that will be created allows users to spend using Bitcoin either online or face-to-face. According to the company, by the end of this quarter, it will also start supporting Google Pay and Samsung Pay.
The announcement of BitPay indicates that the acceptance of Bitcoin is increasingly accepted among the community. In the future cryptocurrencies will most likely be integrated. With a function like this, it is much easier and practical for people to use Bitcoin as a payment method.
BitPay Wallet has other functions that allow users to convert cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin into fiat currencies and credited in MasterCard.
