MetaMask now allows iPhone and Apple Pay users to buy crypto using a debit or credit card through its mobile application, eliminating the need to transfer Ethereum from a centralised exchange such as Coinbase into the app.
And in response to popular demand, MetaMask has also introduced the Apple Dark Mode feature, whichĀ will automatically open in the app as long as a userās iPhone operating system has dark mode enabled.
Daily Deposit Limit of 400 USD
Users can now deploy their Visas and Mastercards stored in Apple Pay to buy ETH and deposit a daily maximum of US$400 into their wallets, thanks to the Wyre API (MetaMask uses two payment gateways,Ā Wyre and Transak, to support debit card and credit card transactions).
Gas fees are also said to be lower, and some transactions may even be gasless if done on a private blockchain or if a project pays for the gas on the userās behalf.Ā (When completing an ETH purchase, MetaMask discloses that it does not profit from gas fees.)
Buy Stablecoins and Make Bank Transfers in 60+ Currencies
Via Transak, users have been able to buy stablecoins such as USDT, USDC and DAIĀ on the Ethereum mainnet in MetaMask for some time now, but the latest update also allows them to make bank transfers and use credit/debit cards to buy crypto using more than 60 global currencies.
Exact payment methods and fees vary depending on the location. Earlier this month, OpenSea and Metamask blocked users from countries including Iran and Venezuela after both platforms cited compliance issues. It was later confirmed that Ethereumās Infura cut off users to separatist areas in Ukraine, accidentally blocking Venezuelan users as well.
Just this week, theĀ EU Parliament announced its intention to extend checks to cover privately managed unhosted wallets, including MetaMask,Ā despite fears that such rules could prove unenforceable.
