We started last week with a major announcement — about being selected by the Indian High Commission for the Access India Programme. And now I’m back with another one: we’ve agreed an exciting new partnership with the e-commerce marketplace innovator Storiqa.

Storiqa is a perfect fit for Nuggets. It’s a great business that shares our mission of making e-commerce work better for retailers and customers alike.

Storiqa was founded in 2017 to help SME retailers and producers ‘set up shop’ in just one hour, minimising financial borders and global transactional fees. Their platform also uses a blockchain-based smart review process to eliminates fake or spam reviews.

Storiqa offers a multi-currency wallet for fast, secure transactions in its own STQ tokens and other major cryptocurrencies, as well as in traditional currencies. This makes payments dramatically faster — often reducing months to just minutes — and minimises transaction fees.

We couldn’t be better aligned. We’re both blockchain startups looking to disrupt the world of ecommerce. And our technologies complement each other perfectly. Through this partnership, we’ll make it easier for retailers to compete, and for consumers to enjoy simpler, more secure, more valuable online purchases.

I’m thrilled to be joining forces with Storiqa, and will keep you up to date all with the latest news on this partnership — as well as the many other exciting things happening at Nuggets. Stay tuned!
