VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Feb. 15, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Netcoins Holdings Inc. (“ NETC ” or the " Company ") ( CSE: NETC ) (OTC: GARLF) (WKN: 1WJ) is pleased to provide updates on the self-serve crypto portal it launched in December, 2018.

Since launch, the portal has seen over 1500 new registered users. The average account funding is over CAD $2300 with a median account funding of CAD $1000 (not including unfunded users). The top coins purchased through the portal thus far are Bitcoin, Ethereum, Apollo, Pareto and STEEM.

The self-serve crypto portal (available at https://netcoins.app/ ) enables 20+ coins for direct fiat purchase 24/7 online, and is integrated with an automated Know-Your-Client (“KYC”) product allowing our customers to create their own Netcoins account, and complete KYC registration for approved trading.

The Netcoins portal remains in open beta, meaning anyone can register and transact, but the experience will continue to be optimized. Netcoins recently added credit card payments as a new feature on the portal.

“Our beta testing has taught us a lot about the average crypto consumer and our customers’ needs. We intend to simplify our onboarding flow, and further streamline the KYC process. We will also be bringing sell side features forth in the near future,” said Netcoins CEO Mark Binns. “We appreciate all the feedback that we have gotten from our beta users, and will continue to enhance the portal experience with ongoing updates.”
