LONDON, April 6, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Digital payments platform, Wirex, have launched a brand-new offer to double the amount of Cryptoback™ rewards after surpassing 3.5 million customers. Available exclusively throughout April, Wirex customers in certain regions can earn up to 4% rewards back on all purchases made with their Wirex card.*

Since launching in May 2018, Wirex has awarded customers $1.37 million worth of crypto through their popular Cryptoback™ rewards programme. As the first company to develop a crypto rewards scheme, Cryptoback™ automatically rewards customers up to 2% back in WXT, Wirex's native token, for using their crypto-enabled debit card in-store or online, and for the month of April, these rewards are being doubled*.

The leading fintech has celebrated a number of milestones already this year. Last month, Wirex won a High Court trade mark infringement claim for their UK registered trade mark for Cryptoback™, and launched their X-tras rewards programme, offering users enhanced Cryptoback™ rewards and up to 12% in annual Savings Bonus on their WXT balance.**

In the UK and EEA region, over 100,000 customers have already ordered their recently released crypto-enabled multicurrency Mastercard debit card, featuring real-time point-of-sale conversion, exclusive interbank and OTC exchange rates, free international ATM withdrawals, zero monthly fees and free fiat-to-fiat exchanges.

Wirex CEO and Co-founder, Pavel Matveev expressed his excitement about the companies' recent achievements, stating: "Wirex was founded with a mission to help make cryptocurrency accessible for all, and our world-first Cryptoback™ scheme helps to show people the wide range of benefits a digital economy offers. As lockdown restrictions ease and people look to resume their normal spending habits, doubling Cryptoback™ rewards will help everyone from crypto-enthusiasts to savvy-savers to get the most out of their money, whether fiat or crypto."

From today until 30th April, Wirex users in certain regions will automatically have access to increased Cryptoback™ rewards when spending in-store or online with their Wirex card, with the percentage dependant on the X-tras subscription.*

* Double CryptobackTM Rewards Promotion T&Cs apply. Please check T&Cs for eligible regions. Percentage varies depending on customer's X-tras subscription plan.

** up to 12% in annual Savings Bonus under the X-tras rewards programme is available for a limited time only. Please refer to the X-tras Terms and Conditions applicable to your region.
