“The xPortal Super App is an instrumental step on our mission to build the backbone for a new digital financial system that spans across the physical and the metaverse world.”

MultiversX Labs has announced the launch of the xPortal Super App to reimagine digital finance, AI avatars, chat, and opening Web3, offering a new perspective on the way we experience the digital world.

The xPortal Super App allows users to easily send and receive money, crypto and NFTs, make payments, use a debit card, track investments, and explore the financial, crypto, and NFTs ecosystems.

In addition, the app developed in Sibiu, Romania provides a secure and private environment for users to create AI avatars and interact with friends.

“From a distant vision of the future, into a reality today”

Beniamin Mincu, Chief Executive Officer at MultiversX Labs, said: “The xPortal Super App is an instrumental step on our mission to build the backbone for a new digital financial system that spans across the physical and the metaverse world. Our ambition is that everyone, no matter where they are or what their background is, should have easy access to secure and efficient financial services that can help them achieve their goals and live their best lives. All this becomes available today”.

Sergiu Biris, Head of Product of MultiversX Labs, said: ”xPortal’s ability to make Web3 and the Metaverse accessible to any smartphone user in the world, shifts the entire conversation around all-accessible digital experiences from a distant vision of the future, into a reality today.”

Goal is to onboard 1 billion users

The app serves as a gateway to a vast array of apps and metaverse experiences, with a digital App Store at a user’s fingertips. xPortal Super App was built on top of its first iteration which gained over 1.1 million users in just over a year.

The mission: to onboard 1 billion users to a new set of fun and useful services, experiences, and applications, making digital finance, Web3, and the Metaverse accessible and easy to use by anyone, anywhere.
