New York - Computop, a payment service provider (PSP), and Bitnet, a bitcoin payments processor, are launching a strategic technology partnership that allows retailers to accept bitcoin as a payment method on Computop Paygate. Bitcoin is a decentralized digital currency that does not depend on any central authority such as a bank to process or validate transactions.
Retailers will be funded by Bitnet in the local currency of their choice, with the standard transaction flow from Computop Paygate.
