Crypto users will have less friction and more accessibility to assets via MetaMask thanks to the new partnership. Users will be able to “bypass mainstream exchanges” to buy crypto and digital assets using bank cards, Apple Pay and various bank transfer methods directly in MetaMask, according to a PR shared with BSC News.
“Partnering with market leaders like MetaMask is an exciting opportunity for Mercuryo to help more people experience cryptocurrencies in the easiest way,” said Petr Kozyakov, CEO of Mercuryo. “Instead of opening yet another new account on one of the exchanges, users can manage their digital assets on a single platform. We always put customers and their convenience first when we improve business services with our products.”
The new development has some limitations. MetaMask users will only be able to buy up to €699 in crypto and will be integrated with around 20 fiat currencies. Despite the limitations, the move is a big step in eliminating onboarding barriers for new crypto users and boosting Degen trends to veterans.
“Our integration with Mercuryo helps streamline onboarding and the process of acquiring digital assets, including the ability to purchase up to €699 in crypto without complex identity verification,” added Lorenzo Santos, Product Manager for MetaMask. “This enables our users to seamlessly explore the Web3 ecosystem, including NFT marketplaces, play-and-earn games, decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs), decentralized financial applications (DeFi) and metaverse worlds.”
