One of the biggest issues that merchants and other services companies face in accepting cryptos is the lack of pull payment availability. The way blockchain and its security is designed, it is not possible to use cryptocurrencies for subscription based services. The inherent security does not allow for anyone but the private key holder access to an e-wallet’s funds.

Fiat based monetary and financial services, allow for subscription and repeat payment services to charge their customers (usually credit cards) without the buyers need for intervening or approving the transaction. PumaPay, with its Pull Protocol, allows for subscription services to “pull” funds from their clients’ wallets.
