Hi, weâre MoonPay. Weâre here to onboard the world to the decentralized economy.
Why?
Because crypto and blockchain arenât just technologiesâtheyâre tools for global financial empowerment. They give people control over their money, their digital assets, and their future, unlocking opportunities that traditional systems have kept out of reach.
What we do
At MoonPay, weâre building the infrastructure that powers this new financial system. We make it easy for anyone, anywhere, to buy, sell, and trade crypto using everyday payment methods like cards, Apple Pay, PayPal, Revolut and Venmo. We provide simple tools to send, receive, and manage stablecoins, so anyone can participate in the crypto economy confidently.
Trusted by nearly 30 million customers and over 500 companies, our secure, enterprise-grade platform is driving mainstream crypto adoption worldwide.
We collaborate with innovative brands and projects to build secure, scalable solutions for a blockchain-powered future. And weâre committed to doing it rightâfully licensed in the U.S. and regulated across the UK, EU, Canada, and Australiaâbecause trust and compliance are non-negotiable.
But weâre just getting started. Weâve launched a consumer app that makes crypto accessible, intuitive, and usable for everyone, and itâs growing fast. Weâre iterating every day to make it the best it can be.
If you believe financial freedom should be for everyoneâif you believe in building a fairer, more open financial systemâwe want you with us. To build systems that benefit all, we need contributions from all, regardless of background.
