MetaMask and PayPal <\/span>became<\/span><\/a> partners last year to facilitate crypto payments, that is, to provide a simple and convenient way for users to purchase crypto. The crypto wallet infrastructure provider became the first Web3 wallet to leverage PayPal to drive successful on-ramp transactions. From inception, Ethereum was the only token available for purchase on MetaMask.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThis integration with PayPal will allow our U.S. users to not just buy crypto seamlessly through MetaMask, but also to easily explore the Web3 ecosystem,\u201d Lorenzo Santos, Product Manager for MetaMask said.<\/span><\/p>\n

MetaMask On-Ramp Support Live in India<\/strong><\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

Shortly after its partnership with PayPal, MetaMask <\/span>allowed<\/span><\/a> Indian users to complete transactions using their banks.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This brought instant crypto access to India\u2019s user base using the country\u2019s flagship payments technology Unified Payments Interface (UPI). Before that time, the country\u2019s massive crypto trading community were fully reliant on local crypto exchanges that were subject to harsh tax regimes.<\/span><\/p>\n

Apart from the efficient crypto transactions which the MetaMask UPI support brought to India, it also made user experience faster and cheaper. It is also believed that this could go a long way in advancing the Web3.0 infrastructure in the country by introducing a radical shift in the small payments category, pushing the country\u2019s digital infrastructure.<\/span><\/p>\n

The addition of the \u201cSell\u201d feature further underscores MetaMask plan to ease crypto transactions in more of the regions it is operational.<\/span><\/p>\n
