TransFi and Consensys partner up to enable on and off-ramps from local currencies to digital assets directly in MetaMask

We at TransFi are super excited to announce a partnership with MetaMask, the most popular Web3 wallet in the world.

MetaMask is a well-known name in the crypto industry and is the top preferred self custody Web3 browser extension and app based wallet with over 100 million users annually! What started off as an easy to use wallet for the Ethereum ecosystem, MetaMask now supports all major EVM blockchains and has been adding support to other networks as well.

MetaMask is a product of Consensys, a leading blockchain software company. Consensys is based in Fort Worth, Texas (US) and has developed several other popular and sought after Web3 products, including Infura, Linea zkEVM rollup, and Diligence.

Thanks to this integration, people across the globe who prefer transacting with their local currency will be able to buy or sell a wide range of digital assets, while enjoying low fees, flexible payment options, fast verification and best in class security offered by TransFi.

TransFi's widest coverage of local currencies in their native payment methods in addition to credit & debit cards, offering very high conversion rates at the lowest processing fees, has lowered the entry barrier for most users by supporting local languages in our app, local ID for verification purpose and small ticket sizes suitable to the masses, all this with a seamless user experience.

"We're delighted to have this partnership with Consensys, who is a pioneer in Web3 innovation. MetaMask is easily the most popular interface to Web3 for most people out there, and it's applaudable to see them building capabilities as a fiat to crypto aggregator as well. This integration of TransFi on MetaMask will help our ramps and gateways reach users in every corner of the world.”, said Raj Kamal, CEO of TransFi.

"MetaMask has been on a mission to partner with providers worldwide to help onboard anyone, regardless of where they are based — to Web3. Our partnership with TransFi is yet another step in that direction.", said Lorenzo Santos, Senior Product Manager at Consensys.
