In addition, TRON users can earn up to 5% cashback in MTL tokens on eligible transactions for sending and receiving USD using the Metal Pay app. The partnership between Metal Pay and TRON means TRX will be accessible to US citizens, who now have a way to purchase TRX instantly when paying with Visa. Metal Pay also enables crypto-to-crypto conversions between the 20+ cryptocurrencies it supports. Users can swap in and out of TRX with the Metal Pay app, while gaining exposure to digital assets such as BTC, ETH, and MTL.
“TRON’s addition to Metal Pay provides their community with a bold new DeFi platform,” said Marshall Hayner, Founder and CEO of Metal. “Home to a variety of developers, dApps, and more, the products that Metal is building will accelerate the growth of the cryptocurrency ecosystem. I believe that TRON shows incredible promise for blockchain technology and decentralized systems, and I’m excited about the chance to work with them as we build the future.”
