Nestcoin’s Onboard joins Bitmama and Bitnob in the growing trend of African crypto companies offering virtual cards.

African users will be rewarded in satoshis when they play games or listen to podcasts on the gaming app. They can convert the rewards to their local currency through Bitnob.

African cryptocurrency company Bitnob has partnered with European exchange CoinCorner to facilitate remittances over the Lightning Network.

Africans can now receive low-cost and fast payments in their local currencies, powered by the Lightning Network. But there are questions on whether the process introduces credit, a feature of the traditional remittance system.
