Wirex is a cryptocurrency platform that provides users with the ability to buy, sell, store and exchange digital assets. It was founded in 2014 by Pavel Matveev and Dmitry Lazarichev and is based in London, United Kingdom.
The platform offers several features for its users. They include:
• The ability to purchase cryptocurrencies with a debit or credit card – Wirex allows you to easily purchase Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Litecoin (LTC) and other popular altcoins using your debit or credit cards from major banks including Visa, Mastercard & American Express.
• An integrated wallet – Users can securely store their coins on the app’s built-in wallet which also supports multiple fiat currencies like USD, GBP & EURO as well as over 20 digital currencies such as Bitcoin Cash (BCH), Ripple (XRP), Dash etc.
• A contactless payment card – With Wirex’s contactless payment card called “the Crypto Card” users can make payments at any online shop that accepts Visa/MasterCard payments regardless of whether they accept crypto or not. This makes it easier for customers who want to pay with their crypto without having to convert them into fiat first.
• Exchange service – With Wirex’s Exchange feature you can trade between supported cryptocurrencies quickly and easily directly from within the app itself making it much easier for new traders who don’t have access to traditional exchanges yet.
Additionally Wirex has recently launched 2FA authentication allowing its user base extra security when logging into their accounts via SMS verification codes sent directly from the server each time they log in . Lastly there are no fees associated with deposits but withdrawal fees may vary depending on what currency you are withdrawing from your account so please refer to their website for more details about this policy before initiating any transactions!
