Flexa, the global leader in pure-digital payments has announced entering into a partnership with Aurus, a unified payments platform, to bring digital currency payments to retailers globally.

By leveraging Flexa, merchants connected to Aurus can now opt in to seamlessly accept any digital currencies supported on the Flexa network, including cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin (BTC), Ether (ETH), Litecoin (LTC), and Dogecoin (DOGE).

Aurus’s robust payments solution will enable the Flexa network across a wide variety of merchant industries, including specialty retail, department stores, health and beauty, grocery, automotive, QSR and fine dining. Additionally, merchants who accept these types of payments via Flexa are guaranteed against fraud or loss from the time of authorization at no extra cost.

“Enabling friction-free omni-commerce and providing efficient access to alternative payment methods is core to AurusPay’s unified payments platform. Our partnership with Flexa provides merchants with usability and reliability for digital currency acceptance, and helps retailers realize the full power and promise of crypto,” said Rahul Mutha, Founder and CEO of Aurus.

Retailers accepting Flexa with AurusPay not only benefit from the reduced overhead but also can expand their reach to access incremental, digitally savvy customers.

Through this strategic collaboration, Flexa and Aurus look to empower global consumers with new utility for their digital currency holdings by unlocking them to be spent in a contactless and fee-free way. The integration between the companies includes both in-store and e-commerce payments and is expected to go live this spring.

“We’re thrilled to launch our partnership with Aurus. Aurus’s comprehensive platform is best-in-class, and now enables turnkey access to digital currency payments for even more buyers and sellers around the world,” said Trevor Filter, co-founder of Flexa.

Founded in 2018, Flexa is making cryptocurrency spendable everywhere by offering a fast, fraud-proof payments network. Its digital network eliminates chargebacks and unexpected reversals enabling users to take payments with confidence.
