Our new article about Centz and Gift Card Market

Centz — Use all your giftcards like never before
One of Centz’s long term goals is to forge Gold Bucks into a stand-alone cryptocurrency that will be traded as an valuable asset itself while being utilized for all kinds of stored value transfers.

To reach that pivot point, Centz is constructing the most efficient gift card registration and trading platform in the world.
Registering all individual identities and gift card balances on the blockchain eliminates the biggest problems and restrictions for the safe and secure use of gift cards. Concurrently, Centz will disrupt the gift card market leveraging the blockchain to generate revenue in ways that have never been done before.

Blockchain technology allows Centz to deliver cutting edge security to totally eliminate fraud and money laundering. Similar to credit cards, the % of fraudulent activity is on the rise which ruins the shopping experience for all. Our proprietary blockchain solutions will be adopted by the retail industry once breakage is eliminated. Partnering with Centz is the only way that the industry can “make up” for the lost funds of breakage.
Currently the industry pays 4 ½% to both the issuer and seller of gift cards. Centz will provide both of these functions together more efficiently and at lower cost by issuing totally safe egift cards securely locked on to our blockchain.

As the shift to online, storage, sales and delivery of egift cards increases, the Centz wallet will become the only option which combines gift, reward, loyalty and coupon credits in one place, so they are always available for immediate use.

Centz’s vision is one where we see the true potential of gift cards by combining the use of the blockchain, which will enable Centz to revolutionize the payment industry in ways that are unimagined today by this sleepy and forgotten industry.

CENTZ’s much-anticipated ITO will be delayed until further notice, stating that the owners of Centz, in view of the most recent developments, need to double-check the legal arrangements regarding USA citizens participating in the crowdsale. It is commendable that CENTZ has this view and observes the highest professional standards in conducting business.

The future date of the ITO will be announced on OpenLedger newsfeeds, once determined.

Participants in the CENTZ ITO have flexibility in what they wish to do with the tokens they have purchased up to date.

Participants may:

  • Hold on to their tokens until the confirmed, official ITO takes place
  • Convert their tokens to OBITS
  • Have their funds returned to them upon request by emailing Ronny Boesing at ronny@ccedk.com

Ronny Boesing, Founder of OpenLedger, the platform hosting the ITO explained, “This can only be viewed as a positive as CENTZ will be more mature by the time they go public, and this will create less risk for participants.”

Kindest regards,
