Bitstamp, Europe’s largest crypto exchange recently ranked the top-rated centralized cryptocurrency exchange (CEX) in the world in CryptoCompare’s latest Exchange Benchmark report, now supports PayPal (NASDAQ: PYPL), Apple Pay and Google Pay wallets as of October 17.
As pranešė by Invezz, Bitstamp previously added support for Shiba Inu (SHIB) for its non-US customers in June this year, and the latest move follows massive demand by US customers as the popular Doge-inspired crypto continues to grow.
Bistamp adds support for PayPal after Google Pay and Apple Pay
PayPal is the latest payment method on the exchange, and one of the key integrations given the payments service provider’s global reach that counts over 325 million accounts.
Apple Pay and Google Pay, which Bitstamp announced support for in late August this year, have more than 500 million and over 150 million users worldwide respectively.
Bitstamp on the other hand has over 4 million users across 100+ countries, meaning that the addition of PayPal, now means that millions more can buy Bitcoin with Apple Pay or any of the supported wallets by quickly funding their accounts. It also means that Bitstamp supports the leading wallet apps as well as bank transfer and credit card.
