TradeStation® Crypto Enables the United Way of Broward County’s Integration for Crypto Donations
TradeStation Crypto’s free integration supports crypto adoption for nonprofits.
Plantation, Fla. (May 5, 2022) – TradeStation Crypto, Inc. (“TradeStation Crypto”), an award-winning,* self-clearing online brokerage for trading cryptocurrencies, is proud to support the United Way of Broward County, FL in accepting crypto donations.
TradeStation Crypto provides a simple integration for the United Way of Broward County’s website to accept crypto donations through their online portal. Donor cryptocurrency assets are added directly into the United Way of Broward County’s TradeStation Crypto account.
“We are thrilled to support the United Way of Broward County, a nonprofit that has been committed to South Florida for more than 80 years,” said James Putra, Vice President, Product Strategy of TradeStation Crypto. “We’ve seen the demand and adoption of crypto accelerate in the past few years and this new service will allow nonprofits to process their donors’ crypto donations. We’re excited to continue being part of this momentum and hope it will be a game changer for the United Way of Broward County.”
TradeStation Crypto offers this service to support nonprofits ready to take on innovation. The technical implementation to integrate into a nonprofit’s donation process is relatively simple and free, and the only fees associated with the program are trade commissions.
“We are incredibly proud of our United Way moving into the digital world by accepting donations made in cryptocurrency with the help and support from the team and TradeStation,” said Kathleen Cannon, President and CEO of United Way of Broward County. “This is a giant philanthropic step for members of our community, and we are so thankful that our very own Broward County Mayor, Michael Udine, is the first to officially make a donation to our cause via Bitcoin.”
“The donation process was seamless, safe, and took only a few minutes,” said Mayor Udine. The mayor added, “I believe in the power and possibilities of Bitcoin. I made this gift to kick off the start of United Way of Broward County’s Mayors’ Gala. Whether in crypto or fiat currency, I encourage everyone to consider donating to United Way of Broward County to help them with their mission in the community.”
