YIELD App is thrilled to announce our partnership with leading blockchain e-commerce gateway Shopping.io, in a move that will allow holders of our native YLD token to shop with major global online retailers using their tokens.

YLD holders can now spend their tokens on Shopping.io’s e-commerce platform, which enables users to make Amazon (US, UK, CA, DE, FR, IT and ES), eBay, Walmart, and Etsy purchases using their crypto. Through Shopping.io, YLD holders will be able to use their tokens to purchase everyday items including electronics, books, gifts, and more — all with YLD.

In addition, YLD holders will enjoy a 2% discount on every purchase they make on Shopping.io. Those that hold Shopping.io’s native token, SPI, will also get an additional 2% discount for holding SPI inside the platform’s Dynamic, Advanced, and Pro packages, including international shipping.

Commenting on YIELD App’s latest leading crypto partnership, Tim Frost, CEO of YIELD App, says: “We are thrilled that Shopping.io is joining us on our mission to make digital finance accessible to everyone, everywhere.

“This partnership will open up a wealth of new opportunities to our community members and underscores the usability of blockchain technology for everyday financial tasks, such as online shopping. It’s great to see decentralized finance breaking into the mainstream.”

Taking crypto mainstream

Our partnership with Shopping.io is fully aligned with YIELD App’s mission to bring the opportunities available in cryptocurrency and digital assets to a mainstream audience. Through our platform, users have the opportunity to earn passive income of up to 20% APY on crypto’s biggest assets, including USD Tether (USDT), USD Coin (USDC), Ether (ETH), and — most recently — Bitcoin (BTC).

Since our beta launch in December 2020, we are proud to report that our managed assets have grown to more than $172 million as our user base has exceeded 46,000, while our native token — YLD — is listed across major decentralized and centralized exchanges globally.

Shopping.io partners with leaders in the cryptocurrency and blockchain space, seeking out relationships with both established and new projects that align with its own vision for a future in which cryptocurrency and blockchain are as mainstream as the internet has become — particularly for e-commerce.

Shopping.io is the only international crypto onboarding platform that allows its users to spend their cryptocurrencies with popular global e-commerce websites. This partnership is another step forward in Shopping.io’s growth and maturity in the industry.

Founder and CEO of Shopping.io, Arbel Arif, says: “We are very excited to partner with YIELD App to give holders of the YLD token the ability to shop with their crypto on Shopping.io.”

YIELD App and Shopping.io look forward to further collaboration in the coming weeks and months, including more benefits and discounts for our respective user bases as well as events, competitions, and giveaways.
