ConsenSys Teams with PayPal For A New Way To Buy Crypto in MetaMask 

PayPal will seamlessly integrate within the MetaMask wallet, providing customers with a simple and convenient way to buy Ethereum with PayPal. This new functionality is available to select U.S. users starting today and rolling out to all eligible U.S. customers in the coming weeks.

New York, NY, December 14, 2022 — Today, ConsenSys, a market-leading Web3 company announced that U.S. MetaMask users will be able to purchase crypto (ETH) from within the app using PayPal. MetaMask will be the first Web3 wallet to leverage PayPal to drive more successful on-ramp transactions.

Initially available to select PayPal users in the U.S., this integration enables the seamless purchase and transfer of ETH from PayPal to MetaMask.

MetaMask is the world’s leading self-custodial wallet, the U.S. being among the top markets in terms of users. The MetaMask wallet is the primary way millions of users interact with applications that include NFT marketplaces, play and earn games, decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs), decentralized finance (DeFi) applications, and metaverse worlds.

Lorenzo Santos, Product Manager for MetaMask, added, “This 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.” 

The MetaMask and PayPal integration is the latest in a series of announcements that aims to improve and diversify payment options for users within the MetaMask mobile app. 

How to use PayPal within MetaMask  

To add crypto to your MetaMask wallet with PayPal: 

  1. Login into the Mobile MetaMask App. 
  2. Click or tap on the Buy button, then select ‘PayPal’ 
  3. Enter the desired dollar amount worth of ETH to add to your wallet; you will be redirected to PayPal to log in
  4. Buy your crypto via PayPal, or if you have enough ETH to complete the transaction, send it without buying more. 
  5. Done! You have successfully bought crypto directly in MetaMask and can now explore Web3 easily on the go.
