Israel-based Simplex, a Payments solutions provider, announced on Monday the launch of banking services allowing platforms to offer cryptocurrency buying and selling services using fiat.

Dubbed Simplex Banking, the new service can be used by digital currency exchanges, wallets, or any other platforms that are willing to offer fiat-crypto conversions.

Simplex detailed that the new banking service is a ‘mainstream, user-friendly approach’ to the widely used onramp and offramp services. It will offer ‘one-click’ deposit services for large purchase amounts and will generate a personal IBAN for every user.

The company has already soft-launched the banking services and saw millions of euros in deposits for cryptocurrency purchases.
