San Francisco, California, September 24, 2024, Chainwire – Uphold’s fiat-to-crypto on-ramp, Topper, integrates with MEW (MyEtherWallet), a household name in the Ethereum (ETH) community with over three million monthly active users.
Topper, a fiat-to-crypto on-ramp from global web3 financial platform Uphold, today announced a partnership with true space veteran MyEtherWallet (MEW), the original Ethereum (ETH) wallet, to enhance ETH blockchain engagement and provide MEW users with a seamless way to transact across a wide range of assets.
This partnership marks a significant milestone for Topper as it integrates with MEW, the highly respected self-custodial ETH wallet. Founded in 2015, MEW serves as a trusted gateway for millions of users to interact with the ETH ecosystem, offering a stable, open-source platform that ensures users have full control over their keys and assets.
By integrating with platforms like MEW, Topper allows users to quickly and securely purchase ETH and ERC-20 tokens, helping to bridge the gap between traditional financial systems and the cryptocurrency ecosystem. Additionally, Topper will improve the accessibility of cryptocurrencies for MEW’s vast user base by optimizing transaction approval processes, improving payment success rates, and driving revenue growth. This improvement in transaction success rates will make it easier for users to purchase cryptocurrencies, further cementing Topper as a trusted on-ramp to fiat currencies in the blockchain industry.
“This collaboration with MyEtherWallet underscores the compelling revolution in financial services,” said Robin O’Connell, CEO of Enterprise at Uphold. “By partnering with a leading name in the Ethereum space, Topper is advancing its efforts to make financial transactions more accessible and user-centric. This partnership is a testament to Topper’s commitment to driving innovation and improving the overall financial experience for users.”
The partnership with MEW is in line with Topper’s mission to simplify and provide greater access to cryptocurrencies through its easy-to-implement Web3 payment solution, offering higher approval rates and support for a wider range of digital assets. As a member of Uphold, which serves over 184 countries and supports over 200 currencies and commodities, Topper draws on Uphold’s extensive experience, which has generated over $4 billion in transactions since 2015.
“Over the years, MyEtherWallet has always been committed to making it easy to self-custody cryptocurrencies,” said Kosala Hemachandra, CEO and Founder of MyEtherWallet. “Offering a good range of reliable, secure and seamless integration solutions directly into the wallet is a big part of that, and with Topper, we are adding one of the best. As an OG in the web3 space, I know we can trust Uphold to provide our users with an excellent integration service.”
