Allied Payment Network (Allied) and Finastra have announced Allied Bitcoin Wallet, a new app to be launched on Finastra’s FusionStore.

According to the press release, the service was created by Allied, in partnership with NYDIG. It will enable financial institutions to offer their customers and members the ability to buy, sell and hold Bitcoin via a compliant, secure and turnkey platform.

The wallet, built on Finastra’s open developer platform, FusionFabric.cloud, will consolidate Bitcoin transactions, digital payments and account balances into one location.

The financial institution will not have to hold Bitcoin on balance sheet or transact in bitcoin to offer this service. However, by giving their customers the ability to buy, sell and hold Bitcoin, financial institutions can attract new accountholders, better serve existing ones and create a new source of potential non-interest income.
