Automated bill payment solution Gobbill has partnered with cryptocurrency exchange Cointreee to support bill payments through cryptos.
This partnership will enable users of both platforms to pay their household bills via cryptocurrency tokens which are stored in Cointree’s wallet. Coins supported by Cointree include Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Litecoin, among others.
Gobbill’s platform also enables a user to connect their crypto wallet and pay bills through credit cards, bank transfers or cryptocurrency, regardless if the biller accepts any of the methods.
Through this partnership, Gobbill is hoping to support the growing demand of Australian households and businesses paying bills through cryptos.
Gobbill CEO and co-founder Shendon Ewans said, “Digital currencies are becoming mainstream, and our view at Gobbill is to support customer choice and convenience. We anticipate a surge in the number of customers who would like to pay their bills in crypto in the coming years.
“Our partnership with Cointree will cater to this market and ensure Gobbill continues to remain ahead of the curve when it comes to allowing our users to pay their bills automatically, while knowing they’re protected from fraud and scams.”
Australia-based Gobbill uses AI technology to help automate bill payments for households and small businesses. Users are protected from online scams, avoid late fees, maximise discounts, and protect their credit rating. Businesses can also digitise their invoices, schedule payments and synchronise data with accounting software.
Earlier in the year, Cointree launched a refurbished plaform and is currently looking to expand its services internationally.
Gobbill recently partnered with iSignthis to support the electronic KYC and payment processing of its solution. Prior to this, Gobbill formed a deal with wealth management company myprosperity to launch its services to more users.
The company is currently looking to raise venture funding to support its growth.
