MetaMask Launches the “Buy Crypto” Feature on its Browser Extension

Cryptocurrency wallet MetaMask has launched a “Buy Crypto” feature on the portfolio and via the browser extension. The feature, previously available on the MetaMask mobile app, allows users to purchase cryptocurrencies with fiat money straight from the browser. 

The fiat-to-crypto on-ramp offers users a smooth and fast experience. The process is facilitated as MetaMask takes into account such factors as individuals’ payment methods and their region of residence. Individuals can choose from over ninety tokens across eight networks, including the Layer-2 ones.

Users can now find the Buy Crypto directly on the Portfolio Dapp. To use the application, they must provide their location, choose the payment method, select the token, and specify the amount they wish to purchase. Notably, the feature automatically checks out regulations in the selected country, making it easier for users to discover customized quotes for their purchases. Once swapped, the crypto is deposited in users’ portfolios. 

MetaMask also shared that the feature allows customers to pay in crypto at real-life merchant locations. The app currently supports eight networks and can be used in 189 countries. 

In December 2022, MetaMask also partnered with the payment provider PayPal. The companies have launched a feature facilitating seamless Ethereum-based transfers from PayPal to MetaMask.
