Transak and VeChain have partnered up, integrating Transak's NFT checkout service with VeChain's Marker as a Service (MaaS) platform. This collaboration aims to expand options for adopting and leveraging blockchain technology. Transak is renowned as a leading fiat-to-crypto payment platform, while VeChain provides blockchain infrastructure for chain governance and asset digitization.

The integration of NFT checkout with the MaaS platform enables users to purchase NFTs with fiat currency, starting from as little as $0.01. This move aims to onboard more users into the NFT space and enable companies to tokenize their assets, facilitating global user engagement.

Gresini Racing is poised to be among the first companies to utilize this partnership, leveraging its racing team's marketplace on the VeChain platform. Through Transak's checkout service, enthusiasts can acquire specialized NFTs from Gresini Racing using their preferred currency.

This collaboration underscores the importance of simplifying blockchain tools to drive user and enterprise adoption. VeChain recently introduced MaaS, a no-code NFT marketplace platform catering to both digital and real-world items, facilitating the tokenization of physical assets and easing blockchain adoption for users.

Alessandro Raboni, Transak's Head of Growth, views this partnership as a significant step forward in Web3 innovation, bridging the gap between the motorsports industry and the digital economy. The NFT checkout service enables enthusiasts to purchase NFTs and engage with their favorite teams and clubs.

The partnership introduces the concept of "phygitals" to the sports and racing domain, connecting real-world assets with digital functionalities through NFC technology.

According to Ben Moran, Product Manager at VeChain Foundation, Gresini Racing is just the beginning, with many other entities expected to join in.

Overall, the collaboration signifies broader access to blockchain technology for all stakeholders, paving the way for increased adoption and innovation.
