We have made two big changes to our website! You can now:
- Pay using Cryptocurrencies! (Powered by Koinexpert)
- Pay in other Fiat currencies!
Cryptocurrencies:
You can now make payments using any of the following 4 cryptocurrencies:
- Bitcoin (BTC)
- Ethereum (ETH)
- Ripple (XRP)
- Litecoin (LTC)
During the last step of the checkout, you will be given the option to pay the relevant invoice amount using the cryptocurrency of your choice.
If you want to make use of Cryptocurrencies as a method of payment, we highly recommend making use of Ripple (XRP) as it can reach its destination in under 10 seconds.
It might also be noted that due to the price difference in cryptocurrencies in South Africa, the exchange rate we use will more often than not be higher than the actual rates. This means that you will likely pay less when paying in cryptocurrency if you are obtaining cryptocurrencies outside of South Africa.
Other Fiat Currencies:
Fiat money is a government-issued currency that is not backed by a physical commodity, such as gold or silver, but rather by the government that issued it. This includes all major currencies you are likely familiar with, such as US Dollars, Australian Dollars etc. We are working towards supporting all major currencies of the world but for now, we've started by adding support for:
- US Dollars (USD)
- Euros (EUR)
- Australian Dollars (AUD)
You can use the dropdown at the top of any Namhost.com page to switch between currencies:
