ConsenSys and Mercuryo team up to offer seamless crypto purchases within MetaMask wallet
ConsenSys, a leading Web3 company, and Mercuryo, a top crypto payments firm, have announced their integration within MetaMask. This integration will make it possible for MetaMask users to buy crypto tokens with bank cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and several local payment methods directly in their wallets, eliminating the need for mainstream exchanges. The collaboration aims to simplify the process of purchasing digital assets, offering instant checkouts and easier user onboarding.
Mercuryo’s solution streamlines the crypto purchase process by enabling small immediate purchases and reusing previous ID verification data. The partnership will benefit users with little experience in crypto who are looking for a quick and easy way to restock their portfolio.
According to Petr Kozyakov, CEO of Mercuryo, “Collaborations with market leaders like MetaMask are an exciting opportunity for Mercuryo to help more people experience cryptocurrencies in the easiest way possible. We always put customers and their convenience first when enhancing business services with our products.”
Mercuryo’s product allows MetaMask users to purchase up to €699 in crypto in five easy steps without needing full identity verification. To purchase crypto through MetaMask, users need to log in to the app, tap on “Buy” and select the payment method, input the desired amount and token, review quotes and choose one from Mercuryo, and complete the transaction by following the link to the Mercuryo website.
Since launching in 2016, MetaMask has been on a mission to democratize access to the decentralized web by providing on-ramp functionality with well-established payment providers varying by region. The MetaMask and Mercuryo push is the latest in a series of integrations aiming to improve and diversify user payment options.
This integration will enable MetaMask users to buy popular tokens and coins with two dozen fiat currencies and several cryptocurrencies, including Ethereum (ETH), Basic Attention Token (BAT ERC-20), Tether (USDT ERC-20), OKB (OKB) (ERC-20), and Dai (DAI).
Lorenzo Santos, Product Manager for MetaMask, said, “Our integration with Mercuryo helps streamline onboarding and the process of acquiring digital assets, including the option to purchase up to €699 in crypto without complex identity verification. This enables our users to seamlessly explore the Web3 ecosystem, including NFT marketplaces, play-and-earn games, decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs), decentralized finance (DeFi) applications, and metaverse worlds.”
In conclusion, the partnership between ConsenSys and Mercuryo will simplify the process of buying cryptocurrencies and increase accessibility to the decentralized web. The integration of MetaMask and Mercuryo allows users to buy crypto directly from their wallets and enjoy instant checkouts and easier user onboarding.
