Here at Aliant, our mission is to make cryptocurrency a mainstream form of payment, and change the way people around the world pay for goods and services. We are doing this by simplifying payments for merchants and charities around the world by providing a cryptocurrency payment solution that can be used in everyday environments, and is compliant with all current federal regulations.

Cryptocurrency payments provide an opportunity to move money anywhere in the world faster, cheaper and easier, and they eliminate chargeback fraud and identity theft. Cryptocurrency payments are also a gamechanger because it allows the 1.7 billion people who do not have access to a bank account to finally shop online. With crypto payments, all one needs is a smartphone and an email address!

The ultimate goal is mass adoption, which will take time. With credit card fraud and interchange fees increasing each year, many merchants are already looking elsewhere, but it will take time before they understand and trust blockchain enough to use it for their business.

Education is key when it comes to mass adoption. Big banks put out bad press on crypto because it threatens their position, which has led to a lot of misconceptions. The Aliant team has worked hard to consistently publish helpful, informative content about how crypto payments work on our blog, social media channels, and through press opportunities. Our CEO, Eric Brown, also spoke at several of payment industry conferences last year, and walked the trade show floors to network, spread the word, and answer questions from other industry professionals.

And what better way to educate merchants about crypto processing, than to let them test it out for themselves? In January we began offering crypto processing free-of-charge to qualifying merchants and all registered charities, so they could experience the ease of our CryptoBucks platform, and the value that crypto payments bring their business. We feel that after experiencing such a simple, low-cost, and no-risk payment option, we’re confident they won’t look back.
