MoonTags: Sending crypto as easy as sending a text πŸ’Œ

September 12, 2025

We're thrilled to introduce MoonTags, which will vastly improve how you send and receive crypto. Gone are the days of complex wallet addresses and confusing networks. Now you can use a simple and unique username β€” your MoonTag β€” for all your transfers.

You’ll start with a default MoonTag from MoonPay, then personalize it with your own name and profile picture. You have the option to let other users find you via your MoonTag or phone number, giving you full control over your privacy settings.

Our goal is to make moving crypto as intuitive as sending a text message to a friend, unifying all your transactions under one easy-to-remember tag and hiding the technical details.

Grow your MoonTags address book and send any amount of crypto across the world. Send it in seconds, get it in minutes, for cents, without any crypto jargon. No long wallet addresses. No chain confusion. Just a MoonTag.

If you know how to send a text, you know how to send crypto πŸ’Œ

Updates

  • πŸ”’ Smoother authentication: We know captchas can be frustrating, so we're optimizing them for key processes to speed up your login while still preventing malicious activity.
  • πŸ‡©πŸ‡ͺ MoonPay Balance in Germany: Hallo! If you’re in Germany, you can now hold Euros in your MoonPay Balance and enjoy fast, low-cost, and secure access to 60+ cryptos with zero MoonPay fees. Top up with your favorite method (bank transfer, PayPal, Apple Pay or Open Banking), trade tokens instantly, and withdraw to your bank anytime with near-perfect acceptance rates.
  • πŸ’Œ Exchange assets with friends: There’s a new screen to quickly send or request assets. When sending, simply search your friend’s MoonTag, add a short note, and hit send. You can also receive payments (like that dinner with friends) in your favorite token.
