Snapcard, the bitcoin payment processor and bitcoin wallet, has partnered with Alpha Payments Cloud to power AlphaHub users to accept Bitcoin payments globally.
Through a single API integration, online merchants have access to the AlphaHub platform and can add Bitcoin functionality as an alternative payment method and gain access to a demographic of more than 7 million active Bitcoin users worldwide.
“The AlphaHub API connects banks and merchants to more than 100 white-label solutions like gateways, alternative payments, ID verification, chargeback management– we’re excited to work with Snapcard to help our clients capture the added-value of accepting global alternative payments like Bitcoin,” said Rónán Gallagher, chief product officer at Alpha Payments Cloud.
The partnership will see Alpha referring interested clients to Snapcard, with joint plans to work closely in educating merchants about Bitcoin and how it works.
“We pride ourselves in customer service and understand that with a new payment method like Bitcoin, it’s important to stay involved in the educational process. Alpha is known for its innovative initiatives in the payment space — with this partnership, we’re looking forward to bringing a beautiful line of Bitcoin products to Alpha’s clients,” noted Michael Dunworth, CEO of Snapcard.
AlphaHub merchants will have the opportunity to accept Bitcoin payments with Snapcard’s pricing of 0.5% per transaction, with no monthly fees or setup fees.
