It is expected to help projects, such as decentralised financial applications and tokenized marketplaces, to integrate payment solutions in a matter of few hours.
Wyre said that the developers on Algorand will get access to its Checkout and Card Processing APIs from next month.
This will enable end users to transact in Algorand-supported currencies including native ALGO coin, as well as USDT and USDC on Algorand.
They will be also able to swap other cryptocurrencies into Algorand native currency and to earn yield on their Algorand assets.
