This Central American-based team debuted on the global stage in 2021 when they powered the high volume of bitcoin payments catalyzed in El Salvador by the government’s $30 BTC airdrop to citizens. Via turnkey API, IBEX offers infrastructure services for the adoption of Lightning-facilitated payments. From POS systems to financial institutions to brick-and-mortar merchants (Starbucks and Pizza Hut are clients), IBEX makes it easy to step into the future of finance or simply to opt out of fees imposed by legacy system intermediaries.
