With the sale of cryptonow vouchers in common retail outlets in Switzerland, Värdex Suisse SA enables easy access to cryptocurrencies even for non-experts. The voucher can be obtained like a classic voucher at the checkout in exchange for Swiss francs. It is entirely up to the buyer to decide when to activate the card on their smartphone or computer. Once activated, the value of the voucher card is converted into the respective cryptocurrency at real-time exchange rates - quickly, securely, and easily.
Jury president: Marcus Dauck
A pioneer is someone who introduces new combinations of production factors and thus establishes himself in the market. A pioneer is creative, shows initiative and is assertive. And pioneers they are, the winners of the Highest Digital Quality Awards 2021. We are honoring a company that is breaking new ground for cryptocurrency payments: Värdex Suisse and "cryptonow".
The system sounds simple: Värdex offers cryptonow, a voucher card for cryptocurrency. Anyone can buy this voucher card at a kiosk, give it as a gift or use it as a means of payment online and buy a new pair of jeans or the latest smartphone. The customer does not need to know anything about the currency - which is still complex for many people - and the payment process.
The Värdex team has already succeeded in spanning a large network of providers - so don't be surprised if you can also buy a Cryptonow card in a kiosk in the countryside. Cryptonow has already made the leap into the mainstream, laying a foundation for a promising future. For the jury, the complex execution with the highest quality and security requirements was decisive for the win: Värdex was able to convince the jury that they are not only able to produce the card, but that the payment transactions are also handled securely.
Our winners achieved this with a great team effort: in the team we found everyone from the marketing to the financier to the programmer with the same vision to develop a high quality, innovative product. And what we especially like: Cryptonow is 100% Swiss! From design to server location, development and execution: Everything Made in Switzerland.
A strong overall package - that's what the jury thinks and I am happy to present Värdex Suisse with the award for Highest Digital Quality.
