Crypto payments firm MoonPay has introduced a new feature called MoonTags, aimed at simplifying the process of aEURoepeer-to-peeraEUR cryptocurrency transfers.

Upon registration, each MoonPay user is provided with a aEURoecustomisedaEUR default MoonTag.A
To send or request crypto, users need to search for a MoonTag, enter the desired amount, and may add a message before completing the transaction instantly. A

The company boasts nearly 30 million customers and supports the infrastructure of close to 500 companies within the decentralised economy.AA
