Payment orchestration platform BlueSnap has announced a new partnership with BitPay, a provider of Bitcoin and cryptocurrency payment services, thus offering crypto payments to its clients.

The product partnership will give businesses the ability to accept and get paid out in 15 different cryptocurrencies and seven fiat currencies globally and supports BlueSnap’s mission to help businesses across the globe increase their revenue and reduce costs.

The partnership will also allow customers to accept crypto and be paid out in fiat currencies including EUR, GBP, USD, PESO, CAD, AUD, NZD.
