In a strategic move poised to reshape the landscape of Web3 gaming, Transak and Sequence have announced a groundbreaking partnership. This collaboration aims to enhance the gaming experience by integrating advanced payment solutions and simplifying blockchain interactions for developers and gamers alike.
Sequence, a prominent player in the Web3 development arena, offers an extensive toolkit designed to streamline the incorporation of blockchain elements into gaming. This partnership leverages Transak’s robust Web2-to-Web3 infrastructure, which includes features like Fiat Onramp/Offramp and NFT Checkout, to facilitate effortless in-game payments and smooth onboarding processes.
Sami Start, CEO & Co-founder of Transak, remarked on the collaboration: “Our shared vision of simplifying blockchain interactions for users aligns perfectly, and we look forward to empowering the next generation of gamers and developers.”
As the exclusive on-ramp provider for the Sequence Kit, Transak extends the capability for users to purchase cryptocurrencies directly within the Sequence platform using a variety of local payment methods available across over 160 countries. The integration of Transak’s on-ramp functionality within the Sequence Unity SDK—and soon in the Unreal Engine SDK—allows players to easily fund their Sequence Embedded Wallets with fiat currency, ensuring a frictionless entry into the gaming ecosystem.
The potential of this partnership extends beyond immediate technical integrations. Industry experts, including Jack O’Holleran, CEO of SKALE Labs, foresee a ‘massive breakout’ in Web3 gaming. In a discussion with Cryptonews, O’Holleran highlighted the significant role of major platform partnerships and the integration of casual mobile games in driving mass adoption.
“If you could do that and be in this fun cryptocurrency environment where you’re using Web3 and playing with these assets, it just takes things to a different level,” O’Holleran explained, underscoring the transformative potential of combining traditional gaming models with blockchain technology.
This collaboration between Transak and Sequence is not just a technical enhancement of the gaming experience but a strategic move anticipated to accelerate the widespread acceptance and enjoyment of Web3 gaming technologies.
