The digital payments industry is undergoing a massive transformation led by quick technological advancements in blockchain and growing consumer demand for instant, cross-border payments. However, driven by changing customer demands, such as a digital nomad lifestyle, safety, and a need to transact in real-time, traditional banks have only just awakened to the possibilities of blockchain and decentralized finance (DeFi).
Moreover, the digital payment market is expected to be worth more than 19 trillion dollars by 2026, with smartphones, QR codes, digital wallets, and a growing number of payment apps enabling this growth. However, the current financial systems still need to provide people worldwide access to fast, frictionless payments, attractive financial services, and passive income opportunities.
Fuse offers a fast, robust plug-and-play mobile-centric crypto payments infrastructure at a low-cost utilizing three components: the Fuse blockchain powered by the native FUSE token. The mobile-centric open-source technology stack. Alongside a set of DeFi products and tools that enable fast development of Web3 apps.
The Fuse tech stack underwent considerable development in 2022 alongside the soft launch of Charge, a plug-and-play API store for Web3 payments, wallets, eCommerce, NFTs, and a solution for builders in the Web3 space. These upgrades position the Fuse network as the go-to consumer-friendly blockchain for Web3 payments.
In 2022, The Fuse team has been aggressive, targeted, and more focused than ever on growing the ecosystem of tooling and integrations available to builders in Web3. At the same time, additional FUSE exchange listings alongside healthy growth in the number of dApps running on Fuse, including several community-centric applications that shake up the traditional payments landscape, put Fuse on the map.
Fuse underwent significant growth throughout 2022. Some key highlights include the following:

Fuse firmly believes new blockchain-based Web3 payment rails can enable faster, more efficient real-time payments, transforming businesses and consumers’ everyday lives. Ultimately, in 2023, we expect banks to take strategic steps towards infrastructure changes to ensure they are flexible enough to cope with next-generation, real-time payment types. That’s where Fuse comes in.
We are already in conversation with leading payment providers and businesses worldwide to find synergies and partnership opportunities to expand the global Web3 payments infrastructure.
