The integration will simplify purchases of 19 fiat currencies and 18 digital assets directly from the app using bank cards, Apple Pay and Google Pay.

“Our integration with Mercuryo helps simplify onboarding and the process of acquiring digital assets, including the ability to buy cryptocurrency up to €699 [$743 at the rate at the time of writing] without a complicated identity check,” explained Lorenzo Santos, MetaMask product manager.

Earlier, 1inch concluded a partnership with Mercuryo and opened fiat sales of DeFi assets.

In December 2022, ConsenSys announced integration in MetaMask of the option to buy digital assets via the PayPal electronic payment app.
