NEW YORK — Moving funds to DeFi is now as easy as a bank transfer. Mass, the rapidly growing self-custodial crypto super app, has partnered with MoonPay to enable instant bank-to-wallet transfers via virtual accounts powered by Iron.

Users in the US and EU will now be able to instantly fund their mass wallets via ACH, wire, or SEPA and receive stablecoins directly on-chain without the need for delays, custodians, or CEX.
This feature gives every user a dedicated virtual bank account linked to their Mass profile, allowing them to seamlessly transfer money to and from crypto directly from their bank.
“We’ve built a magical experience. Money moves directly to your wallet in real-time. No waiting, no middlemen.”
Max von Wallenberg, CEO of Iron (acquired by MoonPay)
What users can do now
Virtual Accounts within Mass allow users to:
Fund your wallet instantly via bank transfer
Stay liquid and ready for any trade
Avoid top-up failures and blocked transfers
Withdraw profits to bank with a tap
Manage everything in one app
This creates a bank-like UX, but with self-custody and on-chain payments.
why is it important
Today, many cryptocurrency users still rely on centralized exchanges and third-party onramps. Virtual accounts remove that friction.
Direct connection to your bank
Real-time payments to stablecoins
No custody of funds
No juggling apps or waiting times
This is the closest Web3 has to native banking rails.
“Our mission is to build the best self-custody mobile app that covers every step of the way for crypto users. Users can now top up, receive payments, and cash out directly on Mass with just one bank transfer.”
Rudy Kadoc, Co-Founder and CEO, Mass
Technology suitability
MoonPay, a cryptocurrency payments and onboarding company with 30 million users and nearly 500 companies, has acquired Iron to bring direct bank connectivity and real-time payments infrastructure to Web3.
Iron’s rails allow you to move funds from your bank to your wallet without being held by an intermediary, and is in line with MoonPay’s global compliance and security stack.
Mass provides these rails within a complete DeFi hub. Already running on Solana, Ethereum, and key Layer 2, Mass allows users to trade purp (up to 40x) on Hyperliquid, buy, sell, lend and borrow stocks in crypto, and earn over 15% yield on stablecoins.
In just three and a half months, Mass processed over $2 billion in transaction volume and quickly became Hyperliquid’s top mobile venue.
Mass + MoonPay + Iron work together to create a single-tap bridge from banks to on-chain finance, powering the next generation of self-custodial user experiences.
