VeChain has officially launched a new product, the Marketplace-as-a-Service (MaaS), a no-code platform for digital asset transactions. This platform was released in collaboration with Gresini Racing, a MotoGP championship team, and is supported by ExPlus.
The aim is to encourage broader use of blockchain technology. MaaS is scheduled for a full launch later in the year to provide services to both individual users and businesses.

MaaS is designed to offer a simplified, no-code solution for the sale and transfer of digital assets. It arrives at a time of increasing demand for tools that enable the tokenization of real-world assets (RWAs). Future updates will add Near Field Communication (NFC) capabilities and support for “phygitals,” which are physical assets with a digital counterpart.
Gresini Racing, as the first enterprise client to use MaaS, intends to create a unique collection of digital collectibles for its fan base, thus bringing blockchain technology to a wider audience.

The collaboration with Gresini Racing introduces several user-friendly features to the platform, including social media logins without the need to display crypto wallets, credit card payments for NFT purchases, and the ability to list NFTs in euros.
These features are designed to make the platform accessible to users unfamiliar with cryptocurrency. Additionally, the platform allows for the customization of collections, secondary sales, and collection visibility, alongside an administration dashboard for marketplace management.
Further supporting blockchain adoption, VeChain introduced VORJ in 2023, a separate platform that enables users to create digital assets and smart contracts without coding knowledge or incurring transaction fees.
