加拿大vogogo不是一个新公司，做付款处理器已做了大约13年，目前，过去10个月从卡尔加里的总部，处理了7千5百万美元的支付。现在他们已经筹集了850万美元来帮助把加密货币和支付的专业知识带到美国。
vogogo在美国的扩张预计还要持续几个月，他们将进一步扩大到欧盟。Vogogo强大的支付系统到底是什么样子？它基本上是为每一位客户定做的，感谢他们跨行业的能力，可以为大量基于网页的业务很容易地接受比特币，信用卡和其他货币。
虽然vogogo公司的名字在美国不是家喻户晓，但是这些举动可能会新增一个支付玩家进入比特币的神殿。
评论：支付公司进军比特币，国外的利好不断，相信打破跌势的最后一根稻草迟早还是会到来。
 
Vogogo isn’t a new company. The payments processor has been around for about 13 years and is currently processing $75 million in payments in the last 10 months from their Calgary headquarters. Now they’ve raised $8.5 million to help bring their expertise in payments and cryptocurrency to the U.S.
Cormark Securities Inc. led the round which included Salman Partners Inc., Clarus Securities Inc., Beacon Securities Limited and Canaccord Genuity Corp.
Founded by Geoff Gordon and Rodney Thompson, the company has long been Canada’s go-to payments provider. However, as they expanded into Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, they found their skills worked well for Canadian customers. They are now seeing $6 to $10 million in crypto payments a month.
“We had been watching Bitcoin and crypto currencies closely. As a payments company we were very intrigued by the potential of Bitcoin,” said Gordon. “We watched several crypto groups enter the Canadian market, have a lot of success only to then be shut down by their bankers due to payment related fraud and/or no compliance structure. We put the Vogogo platform in front of a few crypto groups to resounding success in Canada. We are now adjusting our platform to scale these services and we will be replicating the service in the US, EU and other target markets.”
The team hopes that the investment will help legitimize bitcoin in the payments space.
“Bitcoin has a huge amount of potential but it needs interoperability with the banks and the banking system to realize that potential,” said Gordon.
The U.S. expansion is expected to go live in a few months and they will further expand into the EU. What does a Vogogo-powered payment systems look like? It’s basically custom-made for each customer and, thanks to their cross-border skills, they can make it easier for large web-based business to accept BTC along with credit cards and other currencies.
While the company isn’t quite a household name in the States, these moves could add one more payment player to the bitcoin pantheon.

好像国外公司很注重付款处理方面的应用，中国就比较少，可能接受的商家比较少！

国外的利好一个接一个，价格什么时候才能涨？最近都在阴跌

还不是因为前一阵中国给比特币下禁令了，我觉得是他们阻碍了比特币在中国的发展！

有钱的金主就是不一样，能找个大牛的好好翻译下吧

只要有金主推广BTC就行

这个不错，国内的币付宝不知道有什么动作
