The future of Web3 payment for merchants

Dear Pundians,

Web3 is all about decentralization and it applies the same to payment. We’ve launched XPOS in 2018 while the confirmation of onchain transactions was slow and expensive. Today more blockchain networks are available in the market, offering faster processing time and cheaper network fees. To ensure XPOS a future-proof solution for our merchants, it is also evolving with the advancement of the latest blockchain technology. Hence, by leveraging Function X infrastructure, deXPOS is here to assist the merchants to get ready for the Web3 revolution.

Currently, the deXPOS is under public beta testing and supports Ethereum, BNB Chain, Polygon and Avalanche C-Chain. We’ve already received feedback both publicly from the forum and privately through the one-on-one emails. A big thank you for your feedback! We are fixing the issues we’ve received and heading toward an official launch.

Here is the roadmap we plan to deliver for deXPOS. Please note that not all the features listed below could be delivered in time due to unexpected factors, such as logistic/shipment delay, security or compliance issues but we try our best to achieve.
