Gobbill's partnership with Cointree
Gobbill payment company and cointree cryptocurrency exchange have announced a partnership that will allow Australians to pay bills using cryptocurrencies.
The announcement, published at the same time as the partnership statement, reads:
The global Alliance [between the two companies] will allow users of both platforms to pay bills using cryptocurrencies stored in the Cointree wallet.
On the website Gobbill stated that the invoices issued by any Australian provider can be paid through the company's system, including utilities, telecommunications, payments for consulting services and insurance services.
A Cointree spokesperson said:
Currently we are working on integration with Gobbill to implement the payment using any of the crypto currencies listed on our exchange. The integration will be completed in about a month, and then users will be able to pay their bills with any cryptocurrency.
Prior to this, the participants of the platform Cointree moths to pay your bills only with the help of bitcoin (BTC).
The companies explained that Gobbill users "can link their crypto-wallet to their account and choose between paying their bills with a Bank card, Bank account, or a specific cryptocurrency, regardless of whether the Bank accepts the desired payment method."
Recalling that the platform has more than 50'000 users, Cointree reports that last year the platform processed payment of bills worth more than $100 million Australian dollars (~ 74 million US dollars). This year, the company said that over the same period of time it has increased the number of payments in cryptocurrency tenfold.
