One of the world’s top providers of branded payment technology, Blackhawk Network (BHN), and BitCard® have announced a new partnership. Through this innovative business partnership, BitCard® will distribute its Bitcoin Gift Card at a few U.S. retailers throughout BHN’s extensive network of stores and B2B channels.
Both BitCard® and BHN achieve a significant milestone with this partnership. One of the first Bitcoin products is being introduced to the BHN network by BitCard®, and BHN is increasing BitCard®’s visibility to encourage more access to Bitcoin. Additionally, this business partnership will broaden the range of options available by enabling retailers, card rewards programs, airlines, loyalty businesses, and many more in BHN’s network to buy BitCards® and provide them to their customers as a component of their current goods, benefits, or rewards programs.
Steve Dekker, Managing Director, Americas, Blackhawk Network said: “We’re pleased to partner with BitCard®, offering its gift cards redeemable for cryptocurrency in our portfolio. This marks an exciting step for Blackhawk within the world of crypto, and we’re delighted to offer our vast network a new and innovative gift card option. We look forward to seeing the positive impact this partnership will have on our industry.”
Both businesses are eager to observe how the BitCard® rollout will benefit their customers when it launches in the upcoming days.
Ed Gieske, CEO of Bitcoin Solutions Inc. said: “We are excited to partner with Blackhawk. The BitCard® rollout will provide BHN partners with yet another leading gift card option, while also providing end users easy access to Bitcoin and Crypto —in some cases, for the first time.”
The goal of BitCard®, created by Bitcoin Solutions Inc., is to make it simple for customers to access Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. It wants to be the easiest, most versatile way to buy Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.
