The cryptocurrency market, a space with a market cap north of $180 billion, is still chugging along despite the recent subsiding of attention from the public. A lot of recent momentum has been fueled by the continuous investment in and improvement of Blockchain networks, as coins like Ethereum continue to trade north of $200. The value in these technologies lie in their future impact on the economy as they take aim at traditional transaction methods such as contract execution and international settlements. Optimism is particularly strong surrounding the basic idea of Blockchain in and of itself, as the technology has asserted itself as a staying power with notable influence.

The Surge Token is an ERC20 compliant blockchain asset that can have value, be stored in a wallet, used for transactions and can be sent and received, like Bitcoin, Litecoin, Ethereum, or any other digital asset.

"The technology we've developed is soup to nuts, from the issuance of the reward tokens to requests for redemption to transmitting our ERC-20 token to Ethereum." Stated Chief Technology Officer, John Mott.

Tokens will be earned through purchases of Surge products and services or through incentivized activities such as automatic paycheck deposits to the SurgePays Debit Card or paying certain SurgePhone Wireless combo specials. Tokens can be redeemed for rewards and or stored in digital wallets.
