Blake Rosenthal is the executive vice president of fintech solutions at Mastercard. Berkley Egenes is the chief marketing officer at Xsolla. The two confirmed that Xsolla and Mastercard will demonstrate the Pay with Points solution at the 2023 Game Developers Conference in San Francisco from March 21-24, 2023.
The company said they hope to “bring its payments network to the world of web3,” making it possible to purchase NFT and other web3 assets with their debit and credit cards. The integration will enable users to purchase NFTs in an “easier and safer” manner by using their cards, to complete the transaction. Now clients can buy the NFTs they want on the marketplace of their choice without having to buy any crypto first.
The company has stated that these integrations are designed to make crypto more accessible to web2 users/generations. Thus helping the NFT ecosystem keep growing, innovating and bringing in more web2 clientele to the web3 space.
