How to buy crypto with Robinhood on MetaMask

Starting today, eligible U.S. users can buy crypto in MetaMask using Robinhood’s low-cost order engine. Existing Robinhood customers can fund their self-custody wallet through debit, bank transfer, or your existing Robinhood account balance. The new integration prioritizes convenience for both MetaMask and Robinhood users, offering a simple way to fund your crypto wallet and get started in web3.

4. Select the token and network you want to purchase on (example: ETH on Ethereum)

5. Enter the amount desired in fiat (example: $100 of ETH)

A 2023 Consensys survey conducted with over 15,000 people identified that a third of respondents see the complexity of web3 technology as a major obstacle to entering the crypto ecosystem. We hope to continue addressing this through secure and self-custodial solutions like MetaMask and the buy crypto feature for easier onboarding.

Robinhood and MetaMask users can now enjoy a frictionless experience and start using their crypto right away. Enjoy!
