How to buy crypto using MetaMask

MetaMask has partnered with Transak to offer a seamless way to buy and top up crypto in MetaMask, using a debit card, wire transfer, or Google or Apply Pay. Users in the US and UK will have the option to natively deposit tokens via Transak. This method takes place entirely within MetaMask, and allows you to buy crypto and top-up without leaving the app.

MetaMask continues to offer other providers for buying crypto, supporting other regions and tokens. By selecting your region, you will automatically be presented with the options available to you.

Buy crypto

MetaMask Extension and Portfolio

You can also buy crypto in MetaMask Portfolio by selecting 'Move crypto', and then 'Buy', in the left sidebar. If you use MetaMask Extension, you can find the 'Buy/Sell' button on the left of your MetaMask view, which will redirect you to the MetaMask Portfolio.

You can also buy crypto through your linked centralized exchange (CEX) account directly in MetaMask Portfolio. For more information, see our guide here.

The following guide walks you through the process of buying crypto in MetaMask Mobile, using version 7.61 or later. Your screen may look slightly different based on your region.

1. Open MetaMask Mobile. Select the 'Buy' button under your account balance on the left of the screen.

2. Click 'Buy'.

3. On the next screen, you will select the token you want to buy, and the network you want to buy it on. You can search for a certain token by searching its name or address.

4. Select the account you want to purchase the token to, and verify your region is correct.

5. Enter the amount you want to purchase. You can also change the token from this screen if you want to buy a different token.

7. Select your payment method.

8. When you're ready to continue, click 'Continue' or 'Get quotes'.

9. You will be presented with a quote that is the best option for your purchase. For users in certain regions, including the US, MetaMask has partnered with Transak for a seamless way to buy crypto and top-up without leaving the app. For these users, you'll automatically see Transak's quote, but can see more options by clicking the Settings icon in the top left of the screen. For other users, you can toggle between providers by clicking the arrows next to the provider's name.

10. From there, you'll be taken to the provider's platform to complete your purchase, or you will finish your purchase within MetaMask if you're using Transak.

How do quotes work in MetaMask?

When you see quotes while buying crypto in MetaMask, it's because we're using an aggregator of on-ramp providers to provide you with the best possible options.

Kapag inilagay mo kung gaano ba karami ng isang token ang gusto mong bilhin, biglang lalabas ang mga integration ng MetaMask sa aming mga vetted provider, at kukuhanan ka ng mga quote mula sa bawat isa. These quotes automatically refresh every 10 seconds to account for gas price fluctuations, minimizing the potential for failed transactions (if gas prices rise after submitting the transaction, your quoted total may be too low to cover transaction costs by the time the transaction is picked up by the network).

Dahil inilalagay mo ang iyong rehiyon at currency sa prosesong ito, ang mga quote na ipinepresenta sa iyo ay awtomatikong naka-configure para sa iyong mga kalagayan: kaya hindi kailangang mag-alala tungkol sa kung magagamit mo ba ang mga available na paraan ng pagbabayad sa iyong rehiyon, o kung sinusuportahan ba ng provider na iyon ang iyong rehiyon. Kung lumalabas ito sa listahan ng quote, makakabili ka ayon sa naka-quote. Madali.

Regional availability

While we want to make MetaMask's features accessible to as many people around the world as possible, buying crypto in MetaMask (also referred to as on-ramp) is not available in every country or region.

Ito ay dahil ang mga kumpanyang kasosyo namin ay hindi maaaring mag-operate sa bawat hurisdiksyon, dahil ang kanilang mga operasyon ay apektado ng iba't ibang batas at regulasyon.

When you buy crypto in MetaMask, we will automatically show you your options based on what region or country you are in.

I can't buy crypto in my country/region.

Kung hindi supported ang iyong bansa/rehiyon, maaari ka pa ring makapaglagay ng mga token sa wallet mo sa pamamagitan ng ibang paraan.

1. Halimbawa, maaaring idaan ang pagbili ng mga token sa isang centralized exchange (CEX) at ideposito ang mga ito papunta sa MetaMask. Tingnan ang aming gabay para sa karagdagang impormasyon. Tandaan din na ang rutang ito, tulad ng mga mismong ramp, ay karaniwang nangangailangan ng mga hakbang ng KYC (know your customer), gaya ng pagbibigay ng iyong pagkakakilanlan, at maaari ding mag-iba-iba ang availability ayon sa rehiyon. Ang mga CEX ay naiiba rin sa MetaMask dahil custodial ang mga ito — ibig sabihin, wala kang kontrol sa iyong pribadong key.

2. You could also arrange a P2P (peer-to-peer) deposit into your account by sending simple transactions.

Anuman ang paraan na pipiliin mo, gumawa ng sarili mong pananaliksik bago magbigay ng anumang pera, at siguraduhing ligtas ang platform na ginagamit mo. Palaging ugaliin ang mabubuting gawi sa web3 security.

Pag-troubleshoot ng

What do I do if my transaction fails?

If your transaction fails, we recommend you contact the provider's support team first, since MetaMask does not execute your transaction.

For any issues you encounter with MetaMask itself (such as problems selecting your region or currency, or with the buying process), get in touch with MetaMask Support via the 'Contact Support' button on the Support homepage.

Kung nagkakaproblema ka sa paggamit ng platform ng isang provider, gaya ng mga limitasyon sa pagbabayad, mga paraan ng pagbabayad, o KYC, inirerekomenda namin sa iyong makipag-ugnayan sa kanilang mga team ng suporta nang direkta.

Why is my transaction still pending?

To get your ordered crypto into your wallet, the provider you choose must execute transactions on-chain. This means that, as a minimum, you will need to wait as long as it takes for the transactions to be processed by the network (block time).

Kapag naisumite mo na ang iyong kahilingan, makikita mo ang nakabinbing transaksyon sa iyong aktibidad sa MetaMask.

If your bank account was charged and there are delays in receiving your crypto, we recommend you contact the provider's support team directly. Pending purchases (not yet confirmed on the blockchain) are usually caused by the on-ramp provider's pre-authorization processes.
