Simplex by Nuvei initially launched with XDC Network in July of 2021, enabling XDC to be purchased across its partner network of wallets and exchanges, and providing industry leading security on every transaction. This latest integration with XDC Network’s new browser plugin will streamline the onramp process further, allowing users to buy XDC within the XDCPay wallet, while circumventing lengthy checkouts from external onramp providers and XDC transfers from third-party wallets.
