It lets users spend digital assets on mobile top-ups, gift cards, subscriptions, event tickets, and a wide range of physical and digital goods. Uquid is a digital commerce company that connects cryptocurrency payments with everyday retail. It operates an online shop where users can pay with various digital assets for mobile recharges, gift cards, bill payments, subscriptions, event tickets, and a broad catalog of physical and digital products. The platform is built for cryptocurrency holders who want to use their holdings in ordinary consumer purchases, spanning multiple countries and payment options.
