Existing onchain experiences can oftentimes be too complex for non-crypto-native users. For Offramp, building a truly global banking experience on the blockchain meant creating a simple, intuitive and secure experience for its users. The team partnered with ZeroDev to make this happen.
What is Offramp?
Offramp is a self-custodial, global account designed for users to hold, spend and buy stablecoins as easily as they would in their local currency. Once a user creates an account with Offramp, they instantly unlock access to an international Visa card that allows them to spend cryptocurrencies anywhere Visa is accepted.
Beyond the basics such as paying for goods and services, Offramp users are also able to receive international payments as freelancers, send remittances overseas, invest in global assets and hold USD or Euro accounts.
Its mission ultimately comes down to bringing world-class financial infrastructure to emerging economies around the world and breaking down financial barriers that often come with geographical borders.
“With Offramp, users can get paid internationally as freelancers, send remittances back to their home countries, and even gain exposure to assets like U.S. stocks and bonds, all from one self-custodial account,” Luc Loja, CEO of Offramp said.
Integrating with ZeroDev
Part of creating a seamless onchain banking experience is minimizing blockchain complexity to deliver world-class experiences for users. Rather than spending months building its own low-level wallet infrastructure, Offramp turned to ZeroDev.
By integrating with ZeroDev, Offramp achieves a web2-grade user experience onchain. ZeroDev abstracts the blockchain layer, handling complex processes like account abstraction for secure, signature-based transactions and gas sponsorships that remove the need for users to maintain native tokens.
ZeroDev’s Smart Routing Address also allows unified deposits and withdrawals across multiple chains, which means that users can easily fund their accounts or move assets around without ever having to think about what network they are on.
“ZeroDev’s documentation and team support made all the difference. Whenever we hit a roadblock, we got immediate help. It allowed us to move fast and keep our attention on building the product our users love,” said Loja.
What’s Next for Offramp?
Offramp’s mission to simplify global financial access continues: the team is currently expanding its footprint across the world, launching features that will allow access to global money assets in emerging markets.
“Our next wave of product releases will keep pushing that mission forward, expanding utility, usability, and real-world impact across more countries,” Luc Loja said.
