GoMining, a global Bitcoin ecosystem that helps people around the world unlock the full potential of Bitcoin, has integrated Uphold’s Platform as a Service to fuel future growth and deliver a superior customer experience to its global community of five million users.
GoMining’s flagship digital mining product makes Bitcoin mining accessible to millions of mainstream consumers who can enjoy the benefits of Bitcoin rewards using its platform. Since its launch, GoMining has added more features, including recurring purchases and staking, in an effort to broaden participation in the Bitcoin economy.
To support its long-term vision, GoMining needed to expand the functionality of its platform while ensuring compliance in major international jurisdictions. Rather than developing the required features and acquiring the appropriate licenses itself, which would have taken several years, GoMining chose to integrate the Uphold platform into its mobile and web applications.
Mark Zalan, CEO of GoMining, said: “GoMining has evolved beyond our initial goal of democratizing access to Bitcoin mining to become a platform that supports payments, education, and other Bitcoin ecosystem products in a single, easy-to-use application. Partnering with Uphold’s proven platform allows us to continue our sustainable global growth.”
In addition to speed to market, other key factors in GoMining’s decision to integrate the Uphold platform were: its high approval rates for conventional payment card transactions; its geographic footprint with licenses in the United States and the United Kingdom; and the ability to deploy other innovations as they become available on the Uphold platform.
Under the terms of the agreement, which will initially benefit US users, GoMining will connect via API to Uphold’s platform-as-a-service to implement a comprehensive set of workflows and processes for its customers to create and fund accounts and buy, sell and hold cryptocurrencies. Uphold will provide end-to-end management of operations, including compliance workflows (such as KYC and AML), fraud controls and custody.
GoMining will maintain full control over the customer relationship while Uphold will perform these functions in the background. The integration will be seamless and invisible to GoMining customers who will access these features without leaving the familiar GoMining brand interface.
Uphold integrates with over 30 trading platforms, including centralized and decentralized exchanges, meaning it queries the market for every transaction to optimize prices and provide superior liquidity to GoMining clients.
Robin O’Connell, CEO of Uphold Enterprise, commented: “We are excited to partner with GoMining as they plan the next steps to expand their reach and capabilities. The Uphold service allows our enterprise customers to access a full range of proven workflows and compliant digital asset services while maintaining control of the customer relationship and user experience. Not only that, but as we continue to roll out a series of new services across our retail platform, GoMining has the opportunity to incorporate our latest innovations into its customer offering.”
