Turbo Buy: How MoonPay Integration Onboards the Next Billion Users

Ask anyone who tried to get into crypto in the last cycle what was the hardest part. It's not the wallet setup. It's not the smart contract interactions. It's getting your first dollar into crypto. Exchanges have KYC delays. Bank transfers take days. Regional restrictions block entire countries. Turbo Loop's answer: Turbo Buy.

What Turbo Buy is

Turbo Buy is a fiat-to-crypto gateway, powered by MoonPay, integrated directly into the Turbo Loop app. Users can buy USDT (or BNB for gas) directly with:

• Credit card
• Debit card
• Bank transfer
• Apple Pay / Google Pay
• Many local payment methods across Africa, Asia, South America

The crypto lands in the user's self-custody wallet, ready to deposit into Turbo Loop. No exchange account needed.

Why this matters globally

In many countries, setting up a centralized exchange account is hard — regulatory uncertainty, KYC requirements, long delays. Meanwhile, MoonPay has local payment rails in dozens of countries. This means a user in Nigeria, Indonesia, or Vietnam can be earning Turbo Loop yield within 10 minutes of first hearing about it.

Fees and revenue

MoonPay charges a conversion fee. A portion of that fee flows back to the Turbo Loop ecosystem — one of the three revenue streams that makes sustainable yield possible. So not only does Turbo Buy lower the onboarding barrier, it also contributes to the yield pool that rewards everyone.
