Crypto cashback app StormX has secured $9 million in a funding round led by Optimista Capital to support its debit card plans and expand across the U.S. later this year.
- The funding will also be used to make the app interface more user friendly when onboarding the debit card functionality, the firm said.
- StormX said the debit card will launch in the U.S later this year, followed by the rest of the world. The card will offer users in-store rewards in 15,000 locations in partnership with retail and food and beverage firms.
- In June, the company announced the Portland Trail Blazers will feature StormX advertising patches on their jerseys through a sponsorship deal with Oregon’s National Basketball Association team.
