What happened
Some MoonPay users in the US will be able to fund cryptocurrency purchases using their Cash App balance.
Why it matters
Users who have access to the feature gain another way to direct their Cash App balance toward a cryptocurrency purchase via MoonPay.
MoonPay has added Cash App Pay as a payment method for cryptocurrency purchases for certain clients in the US. Eligible users will be able to direct funds from their Cash App balance to such transactions.
For MoonPay, this represents a step beyond its core business of connecting users to cryptocurrency purchases. The practical effect depends on the availability of the feature and the number of clients to whom it is offered.
The information is based on metadata and a brief synopsis of a Cointelegraph publication, rather than the full text of a primary statement. The source contains no data on launch timelines, supported assets, fees, or user reach.
