Cryptocurrency exchange Changelly has announced that its API has been integrated into Ledger Live interface, allowing Ledger device owners to gain access to secure and instant exchange of around 50 cryptocurrencies.

Launched in 2015, Changelly provides an ecosystem of products and services that enables customers to have a one-stop-shop experience when engaging with crypto. The platform acts as an intermediary between crypto exchanges and users, offering access to more than 160 cryptocurrencies that can be effortlessly swapped within 10 minutes on desktop and on-the-go via Changelly mobile app.

Ledger Live is an all-in-one companion application for Ledger devices. The app allows Ledger Nano S and Ledger Blue users to view their balances by scanning a LiveQR code presented on the Ledger Live desktop version. It also enables Ledger wallet users to check the value of their crypto assets anywhere they go. It currently supports 27 coins and more than 1500 tokens.

The partnership with Changelly allows Ledger Live users to swap their coins without leaving the app. The integration ensures exchange access for owners of Ledger Nano S and Ledger Nano X hardware wallets. Changelly’s API allows users to swap cryptocurrencies at fixed exchange rates. Therefore, the rates that are shown in the Ledger Live app are final and users are not subjected to the risks associated with the high volatility of the crypto markets and protected from unexpected money loss.

“I couldn’t be more excited to announce this collaboration with Ledger,” said Eric Benz, the CEO of Changelly. “From now on, Ledger device owners would be provided with a reliable swapping solution and additionally protected from the market fluctuation with a fixed rate mechanism. No doubt, this option will only strengthen the Ledger’s leading position on the hardware device’s market.”

“The integration with Changelly creates a one-stop shop experience for Ledger users, allowing them to do everything in one app, Ledger Live,” said Pascal Gauthier, CEO of Ledger. “It brings not only the unprecedented level of customer experience when it comes to managing the crypto assets, but also the high level of security that Ledger has been bringing to the market for the past several years.”
