How Merit Circle DAO Cuts Costs and Complexity with Bill Import and Crypto-to-Fiat

How Merit Circle, a long-time user of "Bill import" and "Crypto-to-fiat" features, leverages these tools to simplify bill payments using their cryptocurrency treasury.

July 12, 2024

Managing fiat bills can be a daunting task, especially with multiple currencies and international transactions. Request’s “Bill Import” and “Crypto-to-Fiat” solutions reduce complexity, costs, and time spent. 

Understanding Bill Import

The Bill Import feature allows users to effortlessly upload and manage their fiat bills within the Request platform. With the ability to import any bill simply by (auto-)forwarding an email or through bulk upload, users can view, manage, and pay all their bills in one place. 

Understanding Crypto-to-Fiat

The Crypto-to-Fiat feature enables users to settle their fiat payables using cryptocurrency directly. This is especially valuable for companies with significant cryptocurrency holdings, which want to skip the manual off-ramp via an exchange to their bank account and the subsequent bank transfer from said bank account. 

The process is straightforward: select the bill, choose the cryptocurrency you want to pay in, and let Request and its partners handle the conversion and payment to the fiat recipient.

Merit Circle: A Success Story

Merit Circle DAO, a leader in the Web3 gaming space and the organization behind Beam, has utilized Request’s platform to pay and get paid in cryptocurrency and fiat. Vitalij Aleksandrov, the company’s Head of Finance, shares how these features have revolutionized their financial operations.

Simplifying Bill Management with Bill Import

Merit Circle regularly deals with numerous international vendors who want to get paid in various fiat currencies. Using the Bill Import feature, Vitalij can import all of Merit Circle’s fiat bills at once, review them, and mark them ready for payment, thereby significantly reducing administrative workload and the risk of errors that come with managing bills across multiple platforms.

Effortless Payments with Crypto-to-Fiat

Leveraging the Crypto-to-Fiat feature has been a game-changer for Merit Circle. With a substantial portion of their assets in cryptocurrency, the manual off-ramp from cryptocurrency to fiat via an exchange and the setup of bank transfers to pay fiat bills was cumbersome, slow, and costly. 

Now, Vitalij can simply select the bills due for payment, choose to (batch) pay with crypto, and let Request and its partners handle the rest. This not only saves time but also allows them to leverage their cryptocurrency assets more effectively.

Key Benefits

  1. Cut Costs: Eliminate hidden bank fees for international payments by using the Crypto-to-Fiat feature with mid-market rates and transparent fees at just 1%.
  2. Save Time: Avoid the hassle of off-ramping your cryptocurrency assets via an exchange, then transferring to your bank account, and finally making payments. 
  3. Reduce Complexity: Never miss a payment with all your bills in one place on Request, eliminating the need for multiple platforms.

Visualizing the Process

Here’s a quick look at how Merit Circle uses these bill import and crypto-to-fiat together:

  1. Importing Bills: Vitalij automatically imports all fiat bills via email forwarding.
  2. Selecting Bills for Payment: He chooses the bills due for payment.
  3. Paying with Crypto: He selects the preferred cryptocurrency for payment, and Request and its partners handle the conversion and transaction.
