We’ll now empower businesses with advanced treasury management and global payment solutions.

MoonPay is thrilled to announce our strategic acquisition of Iron, an API-first stablecoin infrastructure platform. 

The acquisition significantly expands our business offerings, enabling companies to: 

  • manage multi-currency treasuries
  • facilitate instant cross-border payments
  • generate new revenue through yield-bearing assets

Building on the momentum from our recent acquisition of Helio, Solana’s premier payment processor, acquiring Iron further solidifies our position as a leader in the crypto payments space. 

Here’s what our Iron acquisition means for businesses: 

  • Enterprises: Eliminate slow bank transfers, manage multi-currency treasuries, and move funds across borders in seconds.
  • Fintechs & Payment Processors: Integrate stablecoin rails for fast, secure, and compliance-first payments.
  • Marketplaces & Merchants: Accept stablecoins, settle instantly, and avoid the high fees of traditional payment networks.

“This acquisition is a strategic step forward, positioning MoonPay at the forefront of enterprise-grade stablecoin solutions,” said MoonPay’s co-founder and CEO, Ivan Soto-Wright. “With Iron’s technology, we’re putting the power of instant, programmable payments into the hands of enterprises, fintechs, and global merchants.”

This announcement comes at a pivotal moment in the industry’s development as stablecoins, DeFi infrastructure, and regulatory clarity converge.
