VeWorld, the self-custody wallet for the VeChainThor blockchain, now supports Apple Pay through an integration with on-ramp provider Transak.
The VeWorld crypto wallet allows users to store and manage their Vechain (VET) as well as other VechainThor-based tokens (VIP180). Users of the self-custody wallet can access features such as fee delegation and Ledger wallet integration.
“Transak’s support for Apple Pay aligns perfectly with our goal of providing the most user-friendly experience possible. This partnership is a significant step towards greater accessibility and convenience for our users,” said Fabio Fabbrucci, product manager at VeWorld
Apple Pay adds to VeWorld’s payment options
Apart from expanding VeWorld’s accessibility, incorporating Transak helps the VeChain Foundation wallet to cater to its growing community of users that prefer Apple Pay to other payment methods. VeWorld already integrates with Coinbase Pay.
“Our collaboration with VeWorld demonstrates Transak’s commitment to providing seamless and secure on-ramp solutions for leading blockchain ecosystems,” Sami Start, the co-founder and CEO of Transak, said in a statement.
With more payment options, VeWorld users can choose their preferred method for purchasing crypto, including traditional payment channels. This partnership is expected to contribute to VeChain’s growth by making it more accessible to the community, according to Start.
Apple Pay provides a global payments option and has over 640 million users. Meanwhile, Transak’s Web3 payments infrastructure currently serves more than 5 million users across and supports over 160 countries.
VeWorld users can access Transak on its iOS app, Android and via desktop browser extensions.
