MetaMask has expanded its fiat off-ramp feature to more than 10 blockchains, with support enabled via its partnership with payments firm Transak.
Self-custodial wallet MetaMask, the leading provider in the Ethereum (ETH) ecosystem, will now allow users to convert tokens into fiat directly on top blockchains such as BNB Chain, Arbitrum, Avalanche, Base and Optimism.
MetaMask users previously had to first swap tokens for ETH before converting these into fiat. The deal was both not cost-effective or efficient.
“By expanding off-ramping capabilities with Transak, MetaMask is removing barriers between crypto and traditional currency, allowing users to convert a broader range of tokens directly to cash,” Lorenzo Santos, senior product manager at Consensys.
The expansion means users across these networks will get access to direct off-ramping with the supported cryptocurrencies. First to go live is ETH on both Ethereum and Optimism, and BNB as well as Polygon (POL).
MetaMask’s growth of the off-ramp feature from the initial support rolled out when it partnered Transak in September 2023 also marks an increase to supported countries.
From initially providing access to users in the United Kingdom and European Union only, Transak’s integration means this network will grow to over 100 countries in coming months. MetaMask also unveiled Transak-enabled on-ramping in 2021.
“MetaMask remains one of the first crypto wallets for most web3 entrants in 2025. Its massive and fast-growing user base requires a simple way to enter and exit the crypto market. The entry point was already served in 2021 with Transak On-Ramp. Now, with Transak Off-Ramp, the circle is complete for the user,” Yeshu Agarwal, co-founder & chief technology officer at Transak, said.
As a top self-custodial wallet, MetaMask is often the cryptocurrency industry’s first experience for new users. Over the years, the wallet has looked to enhance adoption and usability. Part of its focus has been on a user-friendly interface, seen as key to the broader goal of driving web3 adoption.
Partnerships with Transak, others in the space, add to this footprint. It means increased on and off ramping support across many regions, bringing financial inclusion and freedom to the unbanked and underbanked. Such underserved countries include Brazil, Kenya, and Indonesia.
