On Thursday, February 8, 2018 APIS (https://apisplatform.io) held a successful meetup in Seoul, South Korea and announced the partnership with Beluga Pay. APIS has raised over $12M USD in their Private Sale and will start their Pre-Sale on February 20th, 2018.

Both companies will begin co-developing a system for merchant Address Masking to facilitate merchants at accepting crypto payments with privacy and ease-of-use.

APIS has devised Address Masking and Beluga Pay will assist in rolling out this technology with thousands of retail merchants in 2018. APIS is also developing the 1st Masternode Mediation Platform:

Address Masking solves the underlying problem with long complicated addresses and public keys. The solution is to create a shortcut such as “john@cafe” that will allow customers to instantly re-route the correct funds to the merchant’s secure wallet in a trustless method. Senders can easily search for receivers(merchants in this case)’ wallet by using APIS Address Masking system. By searching for “Name” and “Domain”, any wallet address can be searched for with ease.

APIS will assist Beluga Pay to enter the Korean and Japanese market with localization and marketing. Beluga Pay will assist APIS on expanding its userbase and interest in Latin America and South America.
