ZipZap Brings Digital Currency
ZipZap Brings Digital Currency Buying Back to 20,000 Retail Locations
Some better news for residents in the United Kingdom who
might be looking to buy bitcoin. ZipZap announced on Tuesday that
they’re bringing their global cash transaction network back to 20,000
retail locations in the UK.
The announcement come following a news item at the end
of March in which we learned that the company would be halting the
processing of digital currency transactions.
The halt directly related to ZipZap’s payment processor, PayPoint, and
its desire to put the processing on hold until the legalities
surrounding there digital currency transactions became clearer.
Now, ZipZap is working with a company called Payzone, one of the leaders in consumer payments in the country.
So what does this mean for you (assuming you live in the UK)? You’ll
be able to purchase digital currency like bitcoin, litecoin, and yes,
even dogecoin through ZipZap’s exchange partners, which include ANX,
Bittylicious, and Buybitcoin.sg.
“Many UK consumers prefer dealing with cash without having to
disclose their banking information,” said Simon Nahnybida, ZipZap’s
Senior Vice President of Business Development. “Our partnership with
Payzone allows customers to easily buy digital currencies online and pay
at convenient locations within a walking distance from their home or
work.”
Here’s what Mark Mellor, Director of Sales and Marketing at Payzone, had to say:
“We are very excited to partner with ZipZap and participate in the
digital currency economy [...] We strive to provide the best products
and services with the utmost convenience and ZipZap’s practices fall in
line with our belief of providing quick and cost-effective payment
services to consumers whilst offering an extra service for our merchants
to add to their Payzone basket of services.”
