The strategic partnership will see the addition of cryptocurrency to the FinMont payment ecosystem allowing merchants to utilise payments from all cryptocurrencies.

The founders of German airline, Hahn Air, launched FinMont to offer the travel industry a unique solution that, unlike other options available, streamlines not only B2C payments but also B2B payments. Combining both payments into a single view will help decision-makers identify and fix inefficiencies in their current payment processes. The firm’s mission is to help travel merchants use payments as a strategic tool to stand out from competitors.

BitPay pioneered blockchain payment processing to enable borderless payments using cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin (BTC), Bitcoin Cash (BCH), ApeCoin (APE), Dogecoin (DOGE), Ethereum (ETH), Litecoin (LTC), Polygon (MATIC), Shiba Inu (SHIB), Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC), XRP (XRP), 7 USD-pegged stable coins (BUSD, DAI, GUSD, PYUSD, USDC, USDP, and USDT) and 1 EURO-pegged stable coin (EUROC) and others. BitPay’s business solutions eliminate transaction fraud, reduce the cost of payment processing, and enable borderless payments in cryptocurrency.

The FinMont platform aims to revolutionise payments by connecting multiple banks and providers through one simple gateway. The partnership with BitPay will allow the global payment platform to incorporate the world’s largest provider of cryptocurrency payment services into its eco-system allowing travel merchants to benefit from the opportunity to offer crypto payments globally.

Suby Valluri, CEO of FinMont, commented, ‘We are delighted to announce this strategic partnership with BitPay and incorporate their leading cryptocurrency payment services into our global ecosystem. This strategic partnership will allow our international client base to offer and facilitate crypto payments globally.”

“Our partnership with FinMont will help realise the potential for crypto to transform the Travel industry, making payments faster, more secure, and less expensive on a global scale,” said Merrick Theobald, Vice President of Marketing at BitPay. “Our goal at BitPay is to make accepting crypto a seamless process and increase adoption as we believe crypto is the future of payments.”
