Global crypto payments company MoonPay and Trust Wallet, the world’s leading independent wallet, have announced a multi-year strategic partnership that will make it easier for millions of users to navigate between Fiat and Crypto within the Trust Wallet app.
Under this agreement, MoonPay will serve as the main provider of trust wallet “buy” functionality for the next two years, starting in the US. The arrangement is based on a relationship that began in 2020 when Trust Wallet first integrated MoonPay’s on-ramp and expanded it to off-ramp functionality in 2023. The enhanced integration is already live for users.
Makes cryptography simple, secure and accessible
The contract leans towards the strengths that each company brings. Trust MoonPay’s global payment rails and checkout flows, as well as Wallet’s broad user base and independence capabilities. According to the announcement, MoonPay’s infrastructure streamlines in-app checkouts, supports multiple local payment methods and Fiat currencies in over 190 countries, serves as default purchase and sales options within trust wallets, and removes end-user friction.
“This is not just an integration, it’s a strategic alignment between the two key forces of the crypto industry,” said Ivan Soto-Wright, CEO of MoonPay. “Trust Wallet shares our mission to make Crypto simple, secure and accessible to everyone. By becoming the best on-ramp provider and off-ramp provider in the major market, we are taking that mission to the next level.”
“We’ve been working with MoonPay for years and saw firsthand how infrastructure enhances the user experience,” said Eowyn Chen, CEO of Trust Wallet. “This partnership will deepen our collaboration and start in the US, bringing users smoother transactions and more payment options.”
MoonPay establishes itself as Crypto’s one-stop payment gateway, providing tools to enable you to buy, sell and trade using familiar methods such as cards, Apple Pay, PayPal, Venmo, and more, as well as to handle Stablecoins. The company says it serves approximately 30 million customers across its decentralized economy, with approximately 500 infrastructure. It is licensed and regulated across major jurisdictions, including the US, UK, EU, Canada and Australia.
Trust Wallet, on the other hand, is a promotion as a secure self-righteous gateway for Web3, allowing users to store cryptography and NFTs and work with Dapps to store all their private keys without abandoning them. Wallet widespread and user experience have made it a common entry point for users migrating to on-chain finance and NFTS. The company said the refreshed partnership will make these entry points smoother and expand payment options for US and beyond.
Industry observers said the move is a symbol of a broader push to reduce friction between Fiat Rail and crypto ecosystems. By embedding trustworthy Fiat on-ramps and off-ramps directly into popular self-obligation wallets, providers hope to make Web3 on-boarding more technical and consumer-friendly as Crypto services are a critical step to reaching mainstream audiences.
For Trust Wallet users, changes must be practical immediately. A faster, simpler purchase flow and other payment options at checkout. In the case of MoonPay, the partnership deepens its distribution through one of the most widely used non-obligatory wallets, reinforcing the company’s role as the payment backbone for Web3. The expanded partnership is now live. The companies said they will continue to develop integrations in additional markets in the coming months and expand availability.
