For more crypto buying choices, ledger teamed with Topper from Uphold
Top hardware wallet supplier for cryptocurrencies, Ledger, has partnered up with Uphold’s Topper to deliver fresh crypto buying tools via its Ledger Live app. The cooperation seeks to enable consumers to immediately purchase cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin, using conventional fiat currency straight through the platform, therefore facilitating their purchase.
By including Topper, Ledger Live becomes more flexible and offers a fresh fiat-to–crypto on-ramp choice. Ledger provides 14 on-ramp services as of right now, which let consumers more freely change money into crypto. Ledger’s Vice President of International Development, Jean-François Rochet, underlined that this alliance gives their customers a wide spectrum of options by balancing local and worldwide payment solutions.
Ledger’s on-ramp choices are expanding, although right now the platform only provides one off-ramp alternative allowing users to sell crypto and convert it back into cash. Ledger is aggressively developing its off-ramp services to provide consumers greater freedom when cashing out their assets, Rochet noted.
Currently supporting around 220 coins and linking with more than 30 networks, Topper, operating since 2023, By the end of 2024, the platform intends to include off-ramp features, thereby facilitating user sale of digital assets back into fiat currency. Robin O’Connell, the CEO of Topper, pointed out that the platform serves customers in 150 countries and is always adding new local payment methods to better serve areas with strong bitcoin acceptance.
Ledger is a self-custody wallet hence ordinary wallet transactions do not call for KYC (Know Your Customer) verification. But KYC checks are required whether you are buying or selling cryptocurrencies via companies like Topper. O’Connell clarified that Topper’s KYC system is simplified, meant to be quick and efficient, thereby guaranteeing high transaction approval rates without too demanding user criteria.
Ledger customers may now safely purchase and keep their crypto assets within the trustworthy Ledger Live ecosystem by means of this connection. The cooperation with Topper emphasizes Ledger’s dedication to increase the availability of cryptocurrencies while preserving their well-known security measures.
