BitPay Awarded Frost & Sullivan’s Company of the Year

Top Blockchain Payments Provider Distinguished as Company of the Year

ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--BitPay, the world’s largest provider of Bitcoin and cryptocurrency payment services, today announced its acceptance of the Company of the Year Award in alternative payments from leading market research and consulting firm, Frost & Sullivan.

Frost & Sullivan Chairman David Frigstad said, “BitPay is a true industry leader, delivering best practices in growth, innovation, and leadership.” Frigstad cited BitPay’s foresight in recognizing a gap in blockchain payments and seizing first-mover advantage as among the reasons BitPay was chosen.

In its research, Frost & Sullivan determined BitPay to be an innovative low-cost way for merchants to open up to a new customer base. Furthermore, Frost & Sullivan found that BitPay helps merchants avoid having to hold cryptocurrency and multi-vendor integrations required of other transfer options and enables faster cross-border transactions with minimal risk.

In addition to expanding their merchant’s customer base, eliminating chargebacks, and integrating easily, Frost & Sullivan commended BitPay for its leadership in developing the landscape around financial regulations compliance.

BitPay CEO and Co-Founder Stephen Pair said, “It’s an honor to be considered among the world’s top payment companies and to be named Company of the Year. We expect to onboard more new merchants this year than ever before, and we appreciate Frost & Sullivan recognizing the value proposition we bring.”

Frost & Sullivan’s Best Practices Recognition Awards are presented each year to companies predicted to encourage significant growth in their industries, identified emerging trends before they became a marketplace standard, and created advanced technologies that will catalyze and transform industries in the near future.
