Our updates for Q1 2023
As always, we have a lot of exciting features and products in the works. Here are a few updates on what the first quarter of 2023 has to offer for Fluid and our users.
Fluid Cards
We’ve had an extensive testing period with our cards, and we are hoping to take orders by the end of Q1. After fixing some shipping issues, we’re aiming to get Fluid users pre-approved for Fluid Cards to speed up this process.
Traditional Account virtual and physical cards will come from a new provider, and integration for this should be finished by the end of Q1: virtual cards will come first, physical cards will follow in the middle of Q2. These cards will have Google Pay and Apple Pay functionality. This is for EEA and UK users.
Multi-chain access
We are enabling users to connect to Mainnet through Fluid Swap (integrated with ParaSwap). Users will be able to buy and sell on Mainnet directly from our app. The tech integration is ready for this feature. We are hoping this will be live in February.
Identity verification
We’re moving to a new identity verification partner to solve delays and improve the user experience. Tech updates are being finalised for this switch, and should be live by the end of January. Your existing verification status will remain valid: you won’t have to reverify your ID once the switch occurs.
Mobile app
We’ve had a smaller team for several months, and have therefore been working on bug fixes and updates for utility, not product updates. We have hired a new team, and hope to bring some of our web app updates to mobile throughout the year as they work on the app.
Tiers and benefits
Tiers and benefits are in the final stages of development and being tested internally. However, we’re waiting for full capability to buy Fluid tokens in-app, since this enables tier functionality, as well as card capability, another important feature of the benefits offered.
Buy Fluid in-app
This is close to finalised: it should be ready in February.
Digital dollar liquidity
We’ve just introduced our Balancer Savings product, which allows users to deposit DAI or DUSD, earning an APY based on the pool volume. It’s live in a Beta version, where we’re receiving feedback: try it in the web app now. This is just one of many step in process in order to stabilize the peg more reliably.
