Binance introduces fiat-to-crypto Buys using Baxna Fiat GatewayOn 7th Jan 2020, Binance launched direct buying service on its platform, in a partnership with Baxna, an Australian fiat gateway, allowing users to use Australian Dollar (AUD), Euro (EUR) and British Pound (GBP) to purchase cryptocurrencies on Binance. Baxna will allow almost instant buys on Binance.com and low GBP fees on bank transfers using the Faster Payment Service (FPS).
The partnership with Baxna will provide users across Australia, some select states in Europe and Great Britain a purchase platform through bank transfers, bill payments, globally acceptable credit, and debit cards and retail payments.

Changpeng Zhao, aka CZ Binance, spoke on the latest fiat gateway saying the world’s largest exchange in volume and users, is targeting a global market in the near future. He said,
“We believe fiat will co-exist with crypto for a long time to come. More than 99.9% of the global money supply is still in fiat and we need to continue building bridges to enable easier flow into crypto. In 2020, we aim to add support for all 180 fiat currencies.”
At the start of January, Binance announced a partnership with crypto exchange, Satang, to allow Thai Baht fiat-to-crypto gateway on the platform.
