Nextech3D.AI (CSE:NTAR, OTCQX:NEXCF) has announced that as part of a financial infrastructure upgrade it has introduced support for cryptocurrency payments in USD Coin (USDC) and Tether (USDT), and the rollout of ACH (Automated Clearing House) payments through its MapD event management platform.
The company, which specializes in AI-powered photorealistic 3D modeling and spatial experiences, said that these changes are part of its broader strategy to operate as a fully digital-first platform with improved cost efficiency and global payment flexibility.
"This isn't just about new payment options - it's about building financial agility into our platforms, whether it's crypto or ACH, we're giving customers more control, reducing our costs, and reinforcing our value as a modern technology company and infrastructure provider,” Nextech3D.ai CEO Evan Gappelberg said in a statement.
The crypto payment option will initially launch in stages across Nextech3D.ai’s 3D modeling, hosting, and event technology divisions.
The new system includes wallet support via self-custody or Coinbase Commerce, real-time pricing from CoinGecko, and automated transaction fulfillment through API and webhook integrations.
The company will also implement tax and compliance tracking via services such as Koinly, Bitwave, or Cryptio, and maintain adherence to Know Your Customer and Anti-Money Laundering regulations where applicable.
According to the company, stablecoins such as USDC and USDT offer cost-efficient, rapid international payments while maintaining the value stability of the US dollar.
Nextech3D.ai expects benefits of up to 95% lower processing fees, near-instant cross-border settlements, and expanded flexibility for clients operating in digital and global markets.
Initial crypto payment adoption will begin with enterprise clients using the company’s 3D modeling and MapD platforms, with broader availability planned throughout the second half of 2025.
Additionally, Nextech3D.ai has launched ACH payment support for MapD. Integrated via Stripe, Authorize.net, and QuickBooks, the ACH system is now fully operational, the company said.
ACH payments will offer up to 80% lower transaction fees, improved cash flow, and smoother integration with existing financial systems, according to the company. This is expected to benefit event organizers, venues, and nonprofit clients who rely on MapD.
Nextech3D.ai said that these upgrades align with its long-term strategic goals of expanding gross margins, increasing average revenue per user, and deepening platform utility across both traditional and blockchain-native markets.
