History
In 2014, the company expanded its services to Belgium by implementing the payment method, Bancontact, formerly known as Mister Cash. Initially, Anycoin Direct was called Bitplaats (Dutch for Bit[coin]place). However, the name was changed to fit the geographic area served. The company name was also changed from Bitplaats B.V. to Phoenix Payments B.V. for the same reason. The same year, Anycoin Direct further expanded its services to the European Economic Area (EEA) with the addition of Single Euro Payments (SEPA). Additional local payment methods where added: Giropay & Mybank in September , Sofort in October , and Trustpay in March 2015.
