BRD, the most secure cryptocurrency mobile wallet trusted by over 2 million users in 170 countries, now allows U.S. customers to purchase bitcoin, ether and dai using bank transfers. This new capability for U.S. customers is supported by over 1,700 U.S. banks enabled by a new partnership with Wyre, a leading payments provider for the blockchain industry.
The new partnership will enable BRD to extend its product roadmap to fulfill its long-term vision of being the leading mobile financial services hub for crypto assets.
“With over $6 billion worth in crypto assets under protection with the BRD brand, we’ve proven to be the most trusted service in the industry,” said Adam Traidman, CEO and co-founder of BRD. “We remain singularly focused on integrating the best payment partners with the lowest fees, such as Wyre.”
“BRD is one of the top teams in the space. They prioritize user security and privacy while still adding meaningful value,” said Michael Dunworth, CEO and co-founder of Wyre. “Both BRD and Wyre have a huge amount of experience, and I couldn’t be more excited for what we’ll deliver to the community over time.”
By using BRD for buying BTC, ETH or DAI, U.S. consumers will now have the ability to directly link their bank account in less than five minutes. Besides allowing customers to securely exchange their fiat for cryptocurrency, bank transfers offer the lowest fees when purchasing crypto.
Existing BRD users will be able to avoid traditionally high prices and newcomers looking to enter the space finally have an affordable option.
“We’ve consistently heard from U.S. customers about the frustrations regarding the lack of innovation and simplification from current market leaders, namely Coinbase,” said Aaron Lasher, chief strategy
