Curve adds a new functionality for crypto reward transfers

UK-based super app Curve has introduced a new feature that allows users to transfer cryptocurrency rewards to external wallets.

This new feature aims to allow Curve’s customers and the crypto-curious to have more flexibility when it comes to digital assets. Curve enables customers to combine their existing debit, credit and rewards cards into an all-in-one payment card through the company’s app.

When a user earns a reward through the app or the Curve card, they have the option to convert that reward into one of 10 different cryptocurrencies. With this new feature, US and UK customers can transfer these rewards to their own external digital wallets.

Aside from improving usability, the product upgrade also aims to help users get the most out of their investments and prepare for the next wave of crypto adoption.

In the company’s press release, Curve representatives noted that clients expressed the need to increase the purchasing power of their assets at this point in the market, as some of them have invested in various cryptocurrencies. They also talked about the newly added functionality and how it allows people to manage their earned rewards as they see fit, whether they want to trade them on exchanges, use them to make purchases, or hold them for long-term investments.
