By Joy Dumasia

Ramp has partnered with Zilliqa to facilitate fast, secure and frictionless fiat-to-crypto payments of its token, ZIL. Zilliqa, a high-performance, high-security, and low fee layer-1 blockchain protocol, has built a reputation for its secure-by-design network and high scalability, which enable developers to design and develop powerful user-friendly dApps with ease. Zilliqa’s ZIL token is used within an active ecosystem of dApps, allowing P2P commerce and the sale of digital assets and collectables such as NFTs, tokenised goods, or DeFi tools.

Following the Ramp integration, users interested in purchasing ZIL can do so in under five minutes and without the complex wallet mechanics on Ramp. All they need is a credit card, and in just a few clicks, the process is complete! With Ramp’s instant verification, users can instantly enter or exit their ZIL crypto position.

Dr. Ben Livshits, CEO, Zilliqa, said: “Ramp helps people acquire crypto easily and intuitively, without lengthy or complex KYC processes. This is sure to welcome and onboard more people into the world of crypto and turn skeptics into active users. With Zilliqa diving into the world of Web3, this integration is timely. Making ZIL more accessible will play an important role as we take-to-market game-changing metaverse and NFT platforms like Metapolis and Rialto.”
