Digital Payments Platform Flexa Launches Crypto Point-of-Sale Tool

Flexa has introduced Flexa Components, a tool that simplifies crypto payments for merchants, allowing for what it says are direct, fee-free digital wallet transactions.
Flexa says Components will allow customers to pay for purchases with their preferred crypto wallets. Customers will be able to use their mobile wallet app to scan a QR code or tap a “Pay” button integrated into the merchant’s payment system, similar to existing mobile payments like Google Pay.
“We believe that embedding, accepting, and using digital currencies should be easier than any other form of payment,” CEO and co-founder Daniel McCabe said in a statement. “Flexa Components helps deliver on that promise.”
Components supports a wide range of cryptocurrencies, including USDC, bitcoin (BTC), ether (ETH), sol (SOL) and litecoin (LTC), and Flexa says it has signed up retailers including Chipotle, Mikimoto, Regal Cinemas and 99 Ranch Market.
“Components reflects our continued commitment to build a better bridge between these incredible new financial technologies and the legacy payments infrastructure,” McCabe said. “We’re so excited to launch this new offering to better address today’s challenges head-on for both merchants and consumers.”
