SWFT Pay @ Berkeley Blockchain Xcelerator
We are thrilled to announce that SWFT Pay is among the 12 blockchain projects selected for Berkeley Blockchain Xcelerator’s first ever batch.
The Berkeley Blockchain Xcelerator, an initiative by Berkeley Engineering’s Sutardja Center, Blockchain at Berkeley, and Berkeley Haas, selected 12 blockchain projects out of hundreds of applicants from Silicon Valley. Among the chosen teams is SWFT Blockchain’s SWFT Pay, a crypto payment platform that “makes sending value across over 30 blockchains and over 140 cryptocurrencies as easy as sending an email.”
Here is why SWFT Pay was selected:
SWFT Pay is also targeting transaction improvements by connecting existing payment services via cross-chain transfer. This exponentially increases payment applications and allows users to transfer across 30 blockchains. Additionally, SWFT Pay’s 0.1% transaction fee makes it extremely competitive among other payment services, some of which can charge fees up to 2%.
