MoonPay Adds Cash App Pay for Crypto Purchases in the US

MoonPay has integrated Cash App Pay as a payment option for cryptocurrency purchases, allowing eligible US customers to fund transactions using their Cash App balances.

The crypto payments company said in an announcement shared with Cointelegraph on Tuesday that Cash App Pay is now available through MoonPay’s own checkout and with select partners, including Trust Wallet, Bitcoin.com, MetaMask, Moonshot, Ledger, BitPay, Uniswap, Tangem, LOBSTR and Edge.

The integration allows customers to use their Cash App balance to buy crypto directly through MoonPay without switching between apps or completing a separate login. For users, that reduces the number of steps between holding a payment balance in one app and purchasing digital assets in another, a detail that matters as crypto firms compete on checkout speed and account familiarity as much as on asset selection.

MoonPay now supports payment integrations with Cash App, PayPal and Venmo. The company added PayPal in 2024 before later expanding to Venmo.

Cash App, the mobile payments service operated by Jack Dorsey’s Block, already allows customers to buy and sell Bitcoin directly through its app. MoonPay’s integration extends that access to a broader range of cryptocurrencies. Cash App reported 59 million active users in June, according to Block’s second-quarter shareholder report, underscoring the potential reach of any payment rail tied to the app.

“Cash App is where tens of millions of Americans already manage their money,” MoonPay co-founder and CEO Ivan Soto-Wright said. “This integration means that those users can access the digital asset ecosystem, funded instantly from an app they already know and trust.”

Expansion beyond crypto onramps

MoonPay is licensed by the New York State Department of Financial Services through a BitLicense and Limited Purpose Trust Charter, and is authorized under the European Union’s Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation in the Netherlands.

The company has spent much of 2026 on an acquisition spree as it expands beyond its traditional fiat-to-crypto onramp business. It acquired Solana trading infrastructure provider DFlow in May, following an April deal for crypto security firm Sodot as part of a broader push into institutional crypto services.

In July, it acquired cross-chain infrastructure startup Glide and launched PayBox, a vault that lets ChatGPT and Claude users authorize crypto transactions while keeping custody of their assets. Those moves show MoonPay broadening the infrastructure around how users access and move digital assets, not just how they first buy them.
