  • MoonPay users can now buy crypto directly with Revolut Pay using one-click checkout.
  • The integration covers MoonPay’s network of over 500 crypto platforms and wallets.
  • The deal could reduce payment friction in European markets, boosting crypto transaction volume.

Crypto payments platform MoonPay said it has connected to Revolut Pay, allowing users to buy digital assets with a single click from their accounts at Europe’s most valuable startup.

The option is aimed at streamlining transactions for U.K. and European customers who rely on neobanking apps like for everyday purchases. By allowing Revolut users to confirm crypto purchases with biometric ID or a passcode, it eliminates some of the common friction points faced by crypto buyers, particularly the card declines and identity verification delays that can disrupt transactions.

Revolut Pay, introduced as a direct-from-account payment feature for online checkouts, comes with built-in fraud protection and instant transaction processing. The integration will extend to all of MoonPay’s 500-plus partner platforms, including popular wallets and decentralized apps.

Ivan Soto-Wright, CEO of MoonPay, framed the move as a bridge between traditional finance and crypto. “Integrating Revolut Pay into MoonPay means millions of Revolut users can now buy crypto with the payment method they already trust and use every day,” he said in a statement.

For end users, the update means faster onboarding and smoother repeat transactions. For MoonPay’s partner platforms, the addition of a widely adopted European payment method could help cut drop-off rates at checkout and broaden crypto’s retail base in regulated markets.

The change highlights a growing trend as crypto services tap into mainstream fintech payment infrastructure, aiming to normalize digital asset purchases for everyday consumers.
