Popular DeFi DEX aggregator, ParaSwap, integrates Transak to its iOS mobile wallet for users to access the best crypto prices and buy directly into their non-custodial wallets.

In DeFi, accessibility and fluid user experience are paramount. ParaSwap, a notable DeFi middleware and aggregator, unites DEX liquidity and lending protocols, enabling user’s access to the best prices in DeFi. The platform offers an optimized route for exchanging assets in a secure and user-friendly interface.

The common challenge for many users has been the initial transition from fiat to cryptocurrency. This crucial step is where many potential DeFi participants face hurdles. ParaSwap, recognizing the need for a smoother onboarding process, sought to address this challenge by integrating Transak as a fiat-on-ramp solution.

Transak facilitates a smooth transition from fiat to crypto and is well-known for it. ParaSwap and Transak's partnership shows their ongoing work to remove barriers to DeFi access. Users can now purchase cryptocurrency using Transak's infrastructure. The purchased crypto is sent directly to their crypto wallet. From there, they can access the best prices in DeFi through ParaSwap's comprehensive platform.

The mutually beneficial relationship between ParaSwap and Transak is expected to foster an environment where users not only enter the DeFi space but also engage with it efficiently.

Paraswap’s Founder, Mounir Benchemled, reflecting on the integration, said, "Transak contributes to ParaSwap's mission of driving DeFi participation to new heights by helping users seamlessly transition from fiat to cryptocurrencies, eliminating the friction that often comes with the onboarding process."

Transak's simple way to buy crypto is more than just a feature; it's a bridge connecting people to DeFi and supporting ParaSwap's mission. This partnership shows that both platforms are committed to making DeFi easier to use.

“Transak’s partnership with ParaSwap is a significant stride towards achieving a frictionless DeFi experience. As more users find it easier to onboard, the adoption of DeFi is poised to reach new horizons. The combined efforts of ParaSwap and Transak teams are indeed a remarkable step towards a more inclusive and accessible DeFi landscape,” said Yeshu Agarwal, the CTO of Transak.
