“The recently onboarded merchant client is the largest of the Canada based portfolio that we have added to our platform since acquiring MoltoPay,” said Fredi Nisan, Chief Executive Officer at GreenBox POS. “The MoltoPay acquisition and MSB license provide GreenBox with a great opportunity to expand our footprint by onboarding Canadian businesses from offering secure digital payment transactions in a compliant fashion. Moving forward, we expect to see more Canada based businesses recognize the value of this offering and adopt our blockchain based payment technology.”
