According to the official announcement, Elrond has just gained access to around 500,000 new users and 60 million merchants via Swipe. 

Bringing our high throughput, low latency, and inexpensive transactional layer online is an important step for our launch. Convenience, ease of use, and utility for the ERD currency is another. We are thrilled to work with the Swipe team, on an integration which brings us closer to what will be a defining moment for the new internet economy. said Beniamin Mincu, Elrond CEO.

Swipe was recently acquired by Binance which is also planning to create a crypto card in the near future. Swipe is a cryptocurrency banking app and card and has its own utility token called SXP.
