BitPay Introduces One Tap Crypto Buys with Apple Pay, Google Pay, Cards, and SEPA Payment Options

BitPay, the world's longest-operating cryptocurrency payments company, today introduced a new one tap crypto buying experience in the BitPay Wallet, allowing eligible users to make more efficient cryptocurrency purchases with Apple Pay, Google Pay, cards, and SEPA for EU users. Powered by MoonPay, the in-app checkout is available on iOS and Android devices in 100+ countries, including the United States and supported countries across the European Union.

Mobile payments have become second nature to the retail sector. With this update, BitPay brings that familiarity to buying crypto, with fewer screens between choosing an asset and confirming a purchase. For first-time and power users alike, buying crypto now follows the same pattern they already use to pay for everything else.

"You can buy pizza in one tap. Now you can buy bitcoin the same way," said Stephen Pair, CEO and co-founder at BitPay. "After 15 years in this industry, we know friction is what stops first-time buyers, whether it be from declined cards, unfamiliar flows, and too many screens, so we are taking those obstacles off the table."
