We're excited to announce that LOBSTR has integrated MoonPay Virtual Accounts, powered by Iron, bringing a faster and more reliable way for users to fund their Stellar wallets directly from their bank accounts.
LOBSTR is one of the most trusted wallets on the Stellar network. Available on iOS, Android, and web, it gives users a simple and secure way to manage Stellar-based assets, including stablecoins. Built with an intuitive interface and strong security features, including two-factor authentication and multi-signature support, LOBSTR has become a go-to wallet for both newcomers and experienced Stellar users.
With MoonPay Virtual Accounts (“Top-up via bank transfer” in LOBSTR), every LOBSTR user receives a dedicated named deposit account linked directly to their wallet. This means funding a Stellar wallet is as simple as making a standard bank transfer. Users in supported regions can now simply transfer funds to their named virtual account using their personal banking app, and instantly receive stablecoin in their LOBSTR Wallet; no widget, no additional UI, and no extra steps involved.
This integration removes one of the most common friction points in self-custody: getting fiat in efficiently. LOBSTR users can now top up their wallets through a single, seamless flow built directly into the app.
"Virtual Accounts are a game changer for self-custodial wallets like LOBSTR," said Max von Wallenberg Pachaly, CEO of Iron, a MoonPay company. "By integrating MoonPay Virtual Accounts, users can go from their bank account to a funded Stellar wallet in seconds, with no intermediaries required."
“Bank transfers are a familiar way for people to move money, and this integration brings that simplicity to crypto,” said Gleb Pitsevich, co-founder of LOBSTR. “By integrating MoonPay’s bank transfer flow into LOBSTR, we’re giving users bank details they can use in everyday banking, while the conversion to USDC on their Stellar wallet happens automatically. This is a major step toward making crypto top‑ups feel as straightforward and reliable as traditional finance.”
