January 3, 2019, Weekly Update
Polis x Divi
We are pleased to announce a brand new set of ways to use your Divi! PolisPay is a non-custodial multi-currency wallet that provides several exciting features for the Divi community.
Epay Mastercard
The Epay Mastercard provides users with the ability to load a pre-paid payment card with cryptocurrency for use in the real world. Think of the Epay card, much like you would a Visa or American Express gift card that users can load with up to $100, with no KYC requirement. Users can increase their limits to $4 000 per month by providing KYC information.
If you are in one of the approved countries, you can order the card now.
Germany, Austria, Belgium, Bosnia Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Iceland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Sweden, Switzerland, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, and United Kingdom.
Gift cards
Users can purchase gift cards to many of their favorite stores using cryptocurrency right from the PolisPay application.
Shift exchange
PolisPay enables users to swap cryptocurrencies with their Shift feature. Quickly swap between any of the supported PolisPay currencies right inside the wallet.
Upcoming feature: UnionPay
Polis is working with UnionPay to provide an instant-conversion debit card that allows users to pay in Divi while merchants receive the currency they prefer.
Get started
Users can beta test the PolisPay application now by following this link.
Polis partnership explained
We are firm believers in a diverse cryptocurrency ecosystem. While Polis shares many of the same beliefs, their approach and execution are quite different from Divi. We do not see this partnership nor Polis' business model as competitive to Divi; on the contrary, we see it as complimentary.
Divi will, of course, offer similar services when the 2.0 ecosystem launches, but you'll find very different features and implementations across the board.
We are excited to be working with Polis and look forward to what this partnership will bring to our shared communities.
