👋 Request enthusiasts,
It’s time for another update on what the Request team has been working on diligently in the last few weeks.
More cryptos now available for fiat-denominated invoice
Starting today, there are more crypto options for you to create an invoice that can be denominated in traditional currency and payable in crypto. In other words, you can set the payment amount of the invoice in fiat (ex. USD or EUR) while being able to receive the actual funds in crypto like Aave, GRT, Ocean, or any other ERC-20 tokens that are currently supported in Request Invoicing. Only ERC-20 tokens can be denominated in fiat at the moment.
Previously, users could only issue an invoice in crypto when the invoice itself is also denominated in crypto. The only exception to this is a combination of a few fiat money and stable coins such as the USD with the DAI, since the DAI is pegged to the USD.
Denominating a crypto invoice in fiat was a feature that was highly requested by our users and considered to be very beneficial for their bookkeeping and accounting purposes. You can learn more about a few accounting challenges with blockchain companies and cryptocurrency from this article.
No longer is the case for users to manually input exchange rates for their invoice or payment with this new product feature. Now, currency conversions from fiat to crypto happen automatically on-chain when the invoice is issued.
