Verrency gives users access to all cards in one wallet and also the ability to trade in cryptocurrencies.

At the end of the year Verrency will open new offices in the San Francisco and in Singapore, with an office in the European Union to be opened in 2018.

The company recently raised $4m in a pre-commercialisation round, and expecting to raise another $15m in a round next year, with Verrency already in discussions with investors.
