Crypto exchange doesn’t just help customers spend, it helps them save

Published at: July 14, 2021

A crypto exchange has launched a new tool that pays interest on dozens of cryptocurrencies.

CoinZoom says it is striving to be more than a crypto exchange for its customers — delivering an environment where they can invest and spend their assets, and watch them grow.

The new feature, which is called CoinZoom Earn, is being rolled out in the coming weeks. No fees are charged when crypto balances are transferred to this tool. Interest is accrued daily and compounds on a monthly basis — with interest payments set to be made regularly.

These returns can either be redeemed, reinvested or spent using CoinZoom’s debit card, which also offers crypto rebates once purchases are made.

CoinZoom’s CEO, Todd Crosland, explained: “Through our platform, users can do so much more than just invest in crypto. We’ve created an opportunity to spend crypto at 53 million merchants worldwide, send crypto overseas to friends and family for free, and now earn interest on their crypto holdings. With CoinZoom, users are getting the full crypto experience on a secure and compliant exchange.”

More than 40 cryptocurrencies are supported through CoinZoom Earn, and interest rates of up to 7.5% are on offer.

Based in the U.S., CoinZoom says that it now has customers in 192 countries.

Beyond its new Earn functionality, a peer-to-peer payments system called ZoomMe allows fiat and crypto to be sent instantly around the world for free — offering a powerful alternative to expensive remittance providers.

CoinZoom has been registered as a money services business with FinCEN in all 50 U.S. states and territories, and subsidiaries have also been established in Ireland and Australia.

As previously reported by Cointelegraph, CoinZoom also offers a fiat on-ramp and fees of just 0.20% for makers and 0.26% for takers, with significant discounts available.

Pioneering hardware wallet brings enhanced staking to cold storage
Twelve months ago, the total value of cryptocurrency locked in staking programs was barely more than $1 billion. Today, there is $58 billion locked in decentralized finance, or DeFi.

Mainstream institutions including MicroStrategy and Tesla have poured billions of dollars into Bitcoin — and some have been buying the dip — while nonfungible tokens have evolved from CryptoKitties and CypherPunks to an artistic medium pulling in millions in bids for a new generation of digital artists …
