Bankex’s MainWallet facilitates transactions in messengers where a publisher can sell articles, subscriptions and additional services to end users with zero integration. For example, in Telegram, a publisher can use MainWallet to “airdrop” trial subscriptions to Telegram users. Upon accepting the airdrop, end users’ MainWallets are automatically activated, and users can seamlessly use them to pay for content with digitized or loyalty currencies.
“With 1World as a partner, we can combine 1World’s bleeding edge mediatech CMS solution with Bankex’s most disruptive fintech technology since credit card introduction,” said Igor Khmel, Bankex Group founder and CEO. “We are looking forward to help hundreds of publishers launch their paywall-enabled messenger-based content feeds.”
