How does PostFinance do it?
To create an appropriate service for PostFinance customers, we have rethought the concept of staking. Customers have the option to make weekly investments in a staking product using Ethereum (ETH).
The service has a fixed term of twelve weeks, during which staking rewards are credited to the crypto portfolio on a weekly basis. These can be sold, while the initial staking position remains locked until maturity.
At the end of the term, the original staking position becomes available again. The service is available via e-finance and the PostFinance App.
PostFinance is initially offering staking exclusively for Ethereum (ETH). PostFinance handles all technical aspects, while customers benefit from attractive staking rewards while simultaneously contributing to the security of blockchain networks.
The development focused on three main attributes:
- Simplicity: Staking can be technically complex. This is why we have developed a comprehensible product that is orientated towards traditional investment opportunities. Our staking offer has a fixed term during which staking rewards are generated – similar to a fixed-term deposit.
- Security: Security is crucial for crypto-based assets. Our solution offers the same high level of security as the safekeeping of assets at PostFinance.
- Access: Secure staking usually requires a minimum investment, with Ethereum that is 32 Ether (ETH). We make it possible to start with small amounts so that all customers can benefit from this attractive opportunity for returns.
