Wirex

Wirex (formerly E-Coin) was founded in 2014. In 2015, E-Coin successfully received an investment of about $ 200 thousand from 93 investors through the online platform BnkToTheFuture. In March 2017, Wirex raised $ 3 million as part of its Fintech Series A funding cycle, set up by the Japanese financial giant SBI Group. In April 2018, Wirex announced contactless debit cards and became the industry's first major wallet and card provider to add new features to Litecoin, complementing its existing capabilities for bitcoins and traditional currencies, in recognition of the rapidly growing adoption of Litecoin as a payment method.
