What is Utrust?
Founded in 2017, UTrust powers simplified crypto payments for merchants and vendors in over 180+ countries. The platform supports over 30 currencies worldwide, which is reflective of more than 90% of the world’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP). UTrust revolutionized crypto by enabling merchants to allow customers to pay in one currency, but then allowing merchants to get paid in another currency. Additionally, UTrust’s 1% fee is an industry-low versus traditional payments that charge between 3%-11% and old digital payment systems that charge 3%.
Purpose of Acquisition
As Europe’s first carbon-neutral blockchain with a market cap totaling over $3.8B, Elrond has acquired leading crypto payment provider UTrust with two primary goals in mind:
- Payments: Merchant payments now can be slow and unsafe with massive opportunities for transformation on a global scale. True to the core mission of crypto, Elrond seeks to offer fast, secure payments through this partnership, transforming the way that merchant point of sale systems work.
- Merchant Yield: Merchants are faced with fees like credit card surcharges, or offloading them to their customers. Elrond is turning payment processing from being a cost for merchants into an income stream.

Why Crypto Payments on uTrust are Beneficial
Transactions made using blockchain payment systems can be private and digital-first, which increases settlement speed while also allowing business owners to have a scalable revenue model. This essentially waves an open sign for traditional shop owners who want to advertise to crypto communities and get more involved within the industry.
In Conclusion
Elrond’s acquisition of UTrust makes it easier for businesses like Helios Staking to offer EGLD payment solutions to customers while also getting paid in the currency that we want. This makes it easy for merchants who are eager to offer crypto payment options but want to get paid in their native currency that they have to pay bills in. Additionally, the UTrust integration makes digital payments not only faster and more secure but also a stream of income.
