Walletbit Reveals Its Latest Commerce Innovation; Responsepay, A Lightweight Mobile Bitcoin Payment Solution, Mobile-First Optimized
Send and receive bitcoin instantly. Whether you're selling in brick-and-mortar stores or online, WalletBit helps you.
Today we have some exciting news to share in regards to mobile and payment processing. We're announcing a couple of products; WalletBit and ResponsePay.
ResponsePay is a lightweight mobile bitcoin payment solution that provides people with a simple yet very effective method of sending bitcoin locally and internationally. ResponsePay can reach almost all mobile phones, and did we mention it is instant? — no more waiting for the blockchain to update!
ResponsePay is built with responsive & adaptive web design so will look simply gorgeous on any device and will scale to fit. Today we are announcing our first steps in making our vision of mobile bitcoins a reality. It's important to realize we are just getting started and this is only the beginning of our path to fruition.
Mobile payments are poised to grow from $170 billion in 2010 to $630 billion by 2014 — Mobile Bitcoin payments will be playing its role in this.
With this new mobile interface for bitcoin we are taking another small step towards making bitcoin worldwide known and accessible for millions of smartphone users. You are able to send bitcoin to just about anyone in the world via email or sms — we cover 712 SMS networks in 212 countries. So even if the recipient has little or no knowledge about bitcoin, they can easily claim with redeem codes. As a consumer you can give your phone permission to know where you are in order to receive offers, discounts and rewards based on your location.
ResponsePay is a web application (or "webapp") and therefore not a native application for iPhone or Android for the sole reason that we wanted to provide people with something that could not; suddenly be removed from any app store.
So how are we going to deliver this vision? As we mentioned earlier we had two announcements, ResponsePay and WalletBit. Let's continue with WalletBit.
