Utrust is available on the Magento platform.

Utrust, the leading cryptocurrency payment solution offering instant transactions, buyer protection, and immediate crypto-to-cash settlements, has announced a partnership with Magento, the leading e-commerce platform that handled $155 billion in gross merchandise volume in 2018.

Magento is the popular eCommerce solution used by well-known brands such as Ford, Helly Hansen or Nespresso.

Magento was recently acquired by American multinational software company Adobe, which means that their partnership programs will be revamped and expanded. Utrust will have the unique opportunity to integrate the Adobe Exchange Partner Program. As an Innovation Partner, Utrust will also be listed on Magento Marketplace, the next-generation application store, making our plugin available to all Magento users, and providing developers with the tools required to integrate cryptocurrency payment solutions into their business offerings seamlessly and with ease. 

Built on open source technology, Magento powers 12% of worldwide ecommerce offering an array of flexible features in catalogue management, content, search engine optimization, and large scale customisation of functionality. By adding Utrust to their platform, Magento is opening up a whole new billion dollar market for merchants. Any merchant using the Magento platform will now be able to receive digital currency payments seamlessly, and still get paid in fiat if they so choose.

Commenting on the latest high-profile partnership, Utrust CEO, Sanja Kon, said, “Magento’s vast, high calibre portfolio of eCommerce businesses can now integrate Utrust and benefit from lower fees and millions of new users while accepting digital currencies. Recognising the potential of digital currencies as a growing payment method, Magento is not only improving the payment options for their own customers but also contributing to the wider effort of increasing mainstream digital currency adoption.  This remains at the core of our operations and becoming an Innovate Partner of the Adobe Exchange Partner Program allows us to advance in our mission.’’

Now, Magento’s merchant portfolio can opt to accept digital currencies such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, Tether or Utrust’s own UTK, and get paid with fiat, as payment for goods and services. With Utrust, businesses can cut out the middleman and keep more of their profit margin for themselves.
