FCF Pay: Bridging Crypto and Automotive Worlds
The linchpin of this modern-day commerce model is FCF Pay’s novel service, dubbed FCF Crypto Bills. This service burgeons the mainstream acceptance of Shiba Inu and XRP by facilitating a seamless settlement of bills across an extensive network encompassing over 20,000 US corporations. The recent collaboration with Honda empowers crypto enthusiasts to finance, lease, or outright purchase Honda vehicles using a myriad of cryptocurrencies, with the list boasting over 100 names including stalwarts like Bitcoin and Ethereum, alongside Shiba Inu and XRP.
Presently, this avant-garde service is exclusively accessible to the residents of the United States, reflecting a cautious yet forward-thinking approach. Nevertheless, FCF Pay has articulated its intention to roll out this service to other geographies in the foreseeable future.
The emergence of such a robust crypto-friendly infrastructure is not an isolated event. It’s an extension of FCF Pay’s ongoing efforts to intertwine the crypto realm with traditional sectors. The payment processor’s recent alliances with HSBC, a British universal bank, and Chariot Energy, a solar energy trailblazer, echo a similar sentiment. For instance, HSBC clients now have the prerogative to settle mortgage bills and loans using Shiba Inu and XRP among other cryptocurrencies.
Concurrently, Chariot Energy avails Texas residents the option to cover their solar panel bills with these digital assets via the FCF payment gateway.
The previous endorsement of the Shiba Inu ecosystem’s three tokens (SHIB, BONE, and LEASH) by FCF Pay on July 7, 2022, had marked an initial stride towards broader crypto acceptance. This stride has now evolved into a significant leap with Honda’s embrace of crypto payments, pushing Shiba Inu and XRP further into the mainstream commerce sphere. The proliferating acceptance, exemplified by over 80,000 Jeripay locations in Singapore accepting Shiba Inu and eminent vendors like AMC Theaters, AirBaltic, and Newegg accepting XRP, accentuates the broadening horizons for these digital currencies in daily commerce.
