ANC Pharmacy has over 1,000 pharmacies across Ukraine and runs its own online pharmacy service. Binance Pay payments will be rolled out in pharmacies in Kyiv initially, according to Binance.
The new payment features will be available at ANC pharmacies, along with ANC Pharmacy-operated pharmacy stores like Kopiyka and Shara. Users must download the Binance application and then go to the ANC.ua website in order to proceed with a crypto payment at ANC pharmacies.
After selecting a product to order online, users will have the option to pay using the Binance Pay service and pick up the order at a preferred pharmacy.
