Crypto payments just got easier in France \ud83c\uddeb\ud83c\uddf7

We've recently partnered with @ingenico\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/g>\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/clipPath>\r\n <\/defs><\/svg><\/span><\/a>, a global payment solutions provider, to enable users to pay in crypto through #Binance<\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a> Pay.

Another milestone for global crypto adoption \ud83e\udd1d pic.twitter.com\/S8f8Pab7nW<\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a><\/p>— Binance (@binance) February 22, 2023<\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a><\/blockquote>

Utilizing Ingenico's payment terminal, the partnership will initially be tested in two locations: Miss Op\u00e9ra, a women's clothing store in the same city as La Carlie, a well-known cocktail bar in Paris, and La Carlie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the largest networks of payment terminals in the world is maintained by Ingenico, a provider of international payment solutions. It was the ideal partner for Binance to fully establish itself in the European Union<\/a> due to its market dominance in France and most of Europe (EU).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through Ingenico's AXIUM payment terminals, which can accommodate over 50 cryptocurrencies, including bitcoin (BTC) and ether, Binance will enable cryptocurrency payments (ETH).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jonathan Lim, director of Binance Pay, claims that the partnership will enable the exchange to take advantage of Ingenico's market leadership and cutting-edge payment options to quicken its access to European consumers without having to develop its terminals or software.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vendor payments in cryptocurrency will be possible during the partnership's initial phase. Nonetheless, both businesses are developing a crypto-to-fiat payment system to make it possible to pay merchants in fiat money. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the second quarter of 2023, Binance plans to begin beta testing for this technology.Ingenico's payment platform-as-a-service (PPaaS) ecosystem will first host Binance Pay. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Customers' in-store payments can be promptly processed by retailers using the Binance cryptocurrency wallet<\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a> if their payment service providers are integrated with Ingenico's PPaaS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Binance under regulatory scrutiny in the US<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This new alliance is announced while US regulatory authorities are looking into Binance. Due to what appears to be a crackdown by the US Securities and Exchange Commission<\/a>, the cryptocurrency exchange is considering stopping a number of American collaborations and acquisitions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Patrick Hillmann, chief strategy officer of Binance, is worried that stringent crypto regulations may suffocate the industry and significantly increase market volatility. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Recent orders to suspend minting stablecoins by Paxos, the company that issues Binance USD (BUSD), from the SEC and the New York Department of Financial Services (NYDFS), had a substantial impact on Binance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even Changpeng Zhao, the CEO of Binance<\/a>, has hinted that US authorities would focus on Binance due to its significant influence on the digital asset market.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
