In a bold move to give merchants and crypto users access to the broader DeFi landscape, DashPay, a cryptocurrency payment application platform, today entered into a strategic integration with Aurora, a layer 2 network that enables cross-chain swaps and unified liquidity for on-chain markets. With the technical integration, DashPay now supports Aurora, giving users on its crypto payments platform a new entry point for DeFi multi-chain activities including swaps, deposits and app flows.
DashPay is a payment application platform built on the Dash blockchain, designed to simplify cryptocurrency transactions for everyday trading. Driven by its own digital currency ($DASH), the Dash network enables everyone worldwide to make fast, easy and low-cost digital payments without the need for centralized platforms.

DashPay expands to Aurora
Due to increased interest in DeFi and the increasing maturity of decentralized applications, DashPay has integrated its crypto payment network with Aurora’s EVM-compatible chains to introduce a bridge that enables DeFi access for both DashPay users and merchants. Aurora is a layer 2 network built on the $NEARBY protocol, which provides low-cost, scalable virtual chains for DApps (decentralized applications). The Ethereum-compatible network and scaling solution allows DApps and assets to be used $NEARBY through full EVM compatibility with significantly lower transaction costs and improved speed (scalability).
With the integration of Aurora’s cross-chain interoperable ecosystem, DashPay aims to enable its users to enjoy decentralized financial freedoms and benefits in the DeFi world. With Aurora, DashPay is building a network for next-gen payments and financial freedom, a technological addition that will benefit the entire DashPay community.
Building a multi-chain user experience
Using the above collaboration, the Dash network integrated its own token ($DASH) on the $NEARBY and Aurora ecosystems. The alliance is intended to promote growth $DASH to new ecosystems on both Aurora and $NEARBY. This means DashPay users can now bridge payments and assets directly to Aurora and other supported chains.
DashPay’s expansion to the Aurora ecosystem demonstrates the importance of a step toward a future for cross-chain exposure, giving users access to the benefits of networks built on $NEARBY and ether.
