Igoria Trade is a company traded on the NewConnect exchange run by the Warsaw Stock Exchange. Just a few days ago I wrote that the company was introducing a multicurrency IgoriaCard. The card allows its users to make payments in 150 currencies with low exchange costs and gives them access to a dozen free currency accounts. It turns out that Igoria had more surprises up its sleeve.

The company has published an investors’ report in which it announces the signing of a letter of intent with Billon, a company well known in Poland for providing blockchain-based services. Billon is working on finding a solution to the problem of the so-called durable medium in banking. It is also offering a blockchain-based mobile payment system that allows for transactions with real currencies like złoty or British pounds. Billon is the only Polish company that went through the British regulatory sandbox.
