In spring 2022, the company’s representatives plan to expand the list of supported digital assets to 40.
What does the Nuvei representative say? Nuvei’s CEO of Simplex, Nimrod Lehavi, said Visa's branded cards are specifically designed for the cryptocurrency space and comply with global compliance standards.
“Thanks to Visa, we have created a straightforward and simple program that is tailored to the crypto industry in terms of compliance, risk, time-to-market, and costs.”
