The partnership, which follows Zytara’s recent ZUSD stablecoin launch announcement, brings together two financial visionaries whose goal is to build the future of payments.

Zytara’s digital banking platform will offer its customers an array of products and services including a spending account, virtual and physical debit cards and access to investing tools.

“Zytara combines financial services and features in a way that gamers and esports enthusiasts can embrace as their own,” said Al Burgio, Founder and CEO at Zytara. “Our mission is to give them a unique set of tools that deliver financial support, inclusion and literacy. Our partnership with i2c will build on our foundations and help us achieve this on a global scale.”
