Apple Pay Now Supports Fiat-to-Crypto Purchases on Coinbase

Apple Pay now supports fiat-to-crypto purchases on Coinbase, enabling users to buy cryptocurrency directly using Apple's payment system. The integration streamlines the process of purchasing crypto for the hundreds of millions of Apple Pay users worldwide.

The feature allows Coinbase customers to use Apple Pay as a funding method for crypto purchases, removing the friction of entering card details or setting up bank transfers. The integration leverages Apple Pay's built-in security features including biometric authentication.

The Apple Pay-Coinbase integration represents another step in the mainstream adoption of cryptocurrency, making it as easy to buy Bitcoin or Ethereum as it is to make any other Apple Pay purchase.
