Portal Pay - Bringing Cross-chain Payments to Gaming

Ezra Strauss, the Head of Partnerships at Portal, has a background in technology and gaming, previously working at Immutable and focusing on partnerships and business development. He joins Andy to discuss Portal, Portal Coin and the new Portal Pay payment solution. Why you should listen Portal Pay, developed by Portal, is a new payment solution aimed at enhancing the blockchain gaming experience, empowering developers, and impacting the broader Web3 ecosystem. It is part of a broader product roadmap with transaction fees used to purchase the token. Portal Pay offers unprecedented interoperability by allowing seamless transactions of any token from any chain within games. This improves asset management and the gaming experience by enabling easy transfers and purchases without leaving the game. Developers benefit from the ability to receive payments in their preferred currency and the support for multiple blockchain networks. This reduces friction and broadens market reach, while also supporting NFT integration and management. Portal Pay promotes interoperability and decentralization, facilitating seamless transactions across different blockchain networks. This contributes to the growth of decentralized applications (dApps) and services. The platform uses smart contracts for secure and private transactions, supporting complex workflows and automated management of digital assets. Portal aims to be the distribution layer for Web3, connecting users with top dApps, especially in gaming, and facilitating a unified ecosystem through innovative solutions and a liquidity layer. Portal has just announced a partnership with Futureverse, one of the most influential players in AI and metaverse technology, to integrate Portal Pay—Portal’s cutting-edge crypto payment solution—across Futureverse’s expansive ecosystem. The first four experiences to benefit from this integration include Reebok Impact, JenMusicAI, The Third Kingdom, and Apes Unleashed, bringing secure and seamless crypto payments to millions of users.
