Product

Q: What​​ is​​ PlutusX?

A: PlutusX’s mission since its inception in 2015 has had one core drive: to reinvent the way investing was perceived. We planned on disrupting the status quo by providing tools that otherwise would have been exclusively reserved to the ultra-wealthy. We have now advanced our mission with the progression of blockchain technology and decentralized tools, that will allow us to take our mission to a global and borderless platform.

Q: How​​ does PlutusX ​​make ​​money?

A: PlutusX has a business model based on commission fees, deposit/withdrawal fees, payment gateway fee, and OpenAPI. For the payment gateway, we receive a profit from every merchant’s (not user) transaction.

Revenue Model

Q: How does PlutusX differ from other cryptobanks?

A:

  1. We focus on wealth management at first. Our trading bot will give clients positive returns on their capital.
  2. We are focused on transactions. Our main goal is to create our own crypto-payment infrastructure based on blockchain technology that will significantly reduce the cost of transactions for merchants. We are confident we will achieve this task, because we have extensive experience in creating viable payment solutions.
  3. We are focused not only on working with the existing crypto community, which now consists of just a few million people, but also with an audience that is still only curious about the crypto-world and is afraid to buy crypto-currencies. We created a system, which will motivate millions of new users to connect with crypto-payments.

Q: How about fiat services? Do you plan to work with fiat? If so, where do you plan to get the license?

A: Yes, In the beginning we plan to operate fiat transactions using money transmitter licenses in each state issued by the USA. As we expand internationally we will follow laws governed by Canada for accepting foreign exchange fiat tender. Regarding the development of our own payment infrastructure, in some countries this service should get permission easily. We have several operational legal units in different countries, including in Canada.
