Today marks a significant milestone for us at Metallicus as we proudly announce the launch of Metal Pay across all Australian territories, making it easier than ever for Australians to access and invest in digital assets.

Why Australia?

Our decision to expand into the Australian market was driven by several compelling factors. Australia is not only a tech-savvy nation but also a global leader in crypto adoption, with a vibrant and enthusiastic local tech ecosystem. The country's progressive regulatory framework aligns perfectly with our commitment to compliance and operational excellence, making Australia an ideal environment for Metal Pay's next chapter.

We have always had a special connection with Australia, having supported events like Dogeathon Downunder, the recent Dogecoin Hackathon. We are excited to deepen our engagement and bring our services to the Australian community.

Why Metal Pay?

Metal Pay isn’t just another crypto app. Since 2016, we've been at the forefront of the digital asset revolution. We know digital assets, we know Bitcoin, and we know compliance. 

Here’s why Australians will love using Metal Pay:

1. Buy in Minutes: Purchase cryptocurrencies quickly and easily with your debit or credit card. Metal Pay offers a smooth, user-friendly experience that gets you from cash to crypto in just a few taps.

2. Automate Your Investments: With our automatic buys feature, you can dollar-cost average into your favorite cryptocurrencies over time. Invest in Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, Dogecoin, and more starting from just $15. This feature makes it easy to build your portfolio gradually, minimizing the impact of market volatility.

Dive into DeFi

Once set up with Metal Pay, you can use the fiat on-ramp as a bridge to accessing more advanced tools within the Metal ecosystem. Metal Pay's launch in Australia not only provides a new on-ramp for digital assets but also connects users to the broader Metal ecosystem, including Metal X for exchange and lending protocols. This expansion is a key part of our mission to make decentralized finance (DeFi) accessible to everyone, everywhere.

With Metal X, you can explore a variety of DeFi opportunities, including:

• Lending and Borrowing: Utilize your crypto assets to earn interest or borrow against them.

• Trading: Engage in seamless and secure trading of a wide range of digital assets.

• Yield Farming: Participate in yield farming to earn rewards by providing liquidity.

• Liquidity Pools: Contribute to liquidity pools and earn fees from trading activities.

We’re excited to serve the Australian market and bring the benefits of seamless, secure, and compliant digital asset transactions to another territory.
