As web3 continues to evolve, one group consistently stands at the frontlines of innovation: developers. From smart contract engineers to app builders, they’re among the first to interact with crypto, driving new use cases, tools and networks that shape the future of finance and the internet. And for some of them, their first build may also mark the first time they hold crypto — signalling the need for an easy way to convert crypto tokens to fiat currencies for spending and more. That's where UR and HackQuest's recent joint initiative comes in.
We've teamed up with HackQuest, a multichain web3 developer and founder platform that specializes in education, community events, hackathons and accelerators, to bring novice developers coming onboard HackQuest for the first time a seamless way to sign up for UR — kickstarting the quick process of turning their crypto to cash with zero off-ramp fees.
UR for Developers: The Onchain Banking Experience of Tomorrow
UR is a borderless smart money app that unifies your crypto and fiat all in one account, all onchain — no more having to jump through multiple apps and hoops just to convert your stablecoins or Ether (ETH) and more to major fiat currencies to use in your everyday life. Whether you're receiving hackathon prizes and DeFi rewards and need a single bank account to manage your assets, or just want to earn yield or spend stablecoins seamlessly, UR is the app for you.
No more trial and error or trying to do extensive research to figure out the best way and rates to off-ramp. And with direct spending available via UR through its Mastercard debit card, you can save up on any additional withdrawal fees you may typically have to pay with other off-ramp options.
Available in more than 45 countries and currently featuring 7 multicurrency fiat options (USD, HKD, SGD, JPY, CHF, RMB, EUR), UR empowers developers with the freedom to receive crypto, no matter how big or small the amount, and exchange it for actual spending instantly at near-zero fees.
