“Plaak is building the foundations of a digital ecosystem in which everyone can easily and securely access to manage their digital assets and our digital transactions clear faster than traditional payment methods and any fees levied on merchants for use are less than those of Visa and Mastercard,” Damian Robson said.
$/Market/News
In February, Plaak released a proof of concept card that allows the card user to store their digital assets in a ‘cold storage’ (offline wallet) and the ability to use the card to make payment at a Plaak Pay retail merchant to purchase goods or services. The team at Plaak are finalising the final integration of the card and are keen to launch into the market in the second half of 2019.
