Bitget Wallet targets cross-border payments with new virtual accounts

Bitget Wallet said Virtual Account adds a way for users to receive money directly into a self-custodial financial account. Bitget Wallet has added traditional banking access to its self-custodial platform with the launch of Virtual Account, a feature that lets users open free USD and EUR virtual accounts through licensed partner Noah. The service is available directly in the wallet without requiring local residency or an in-person bank visit, the company said Tuesday. Users can receive money through ACH, Fedwire, SEPA and SWIFT, with incoming funds automatically converted into USDT or USDC .
