💸 A taste of 2023

This month we’ve had our heads down working hard to bring new crypto payment features to Spritz. We’re not quite ready to roll them out, but we can give you a little peek at what we’re mixing up behind the bar!

In the coming weeks we’ll be getting ready to launch new products like SMARTPay, which will let you schedule recurring monthly bill payments to any bill when you pay with USDC on the Polygon network.

We’re also working on other special features, like a pre-loaded debit card that you can fund with crypto straight from your wallet, Spritz for Business, and payment support on new blockchain networks that even Satoshi himself would approve of. 😉

This year you can also expect to see Spritz launch in new places! Our international Sprites have been asking, and we’re working hard to bring the Spritz product to new countries as soon as possible. We’re looking at you cool neighbors to the North!

🤔 AMAs with our founder, Chris Sheehan

This month our founder Chris Sheehan spent some extra time in the URLverse answering your burning questions. What’s next for Spritz? How far ahead of time do you need to pay your bills? How does Spritz work? Will Spritz launch a token? How does Spritz handle security?

Check out some of the AMAs that Chris was on this month, including these ones from YaBonks and Zach Humphries, or these walkthroughs of the platform from Austin Clark and Your Friend Andy. This month we’ve been working to build our Spritz community through more outreach, content partnerships, and community building.If you’re a content creator yourself, stay tuned for more details on the upcoming launch of our Spritz Affiliate Program with opportunities to earn exclusive rewards, revenue share, and more!

📱 Spritz on TikTok

Speaking of content creators, are you following Spritz on TikTok? We’re working hard over there to share tips and tricks on how to go bankless, how to use Spritz to pay bills with crypto and off-ramp to your bank account, or what you can do with DeFi today. Check out our TikTok right here and throw us a like!

🐛 Bug fixes & improvements to Spritz!

Unlike a real Spritz, making a web product isn’t as simple as following a recipe. We’re refreshing finance for web3 users, so we’ve got a lot of taste testing to do before the final product is perfect. Thanks so much for being part of our beta community, you’ve helped us fine-tune the details as we make Spritz even better.

This month we’ve worked on quite a few updates that should make Spritz easier and better in the future! Check them out:

• UX changes that guide you through how to make a transaction with a new token for the first time. 
• Fixes to our automatic bill finder that will make it easier to find and add your bills with the click of a button. 
• Updates to our list of supported billing providers—we’ve added dozens of requested US billers this month! 
• Improvements to our customer support system that lets us work with you faster.

Check out the improved Spritz app and let us know what you think!

🌾 Ultimate guide to yield farming

So many of you are earning passive income through yield farming and other staking opportunities in the crypto space. That’s awesome!

Yield farming is a great way to earn in crypto, so let us know whether you’re going to check out all of the opportunities that are out there!
