What is a fiat-to-crypto onramp?

A fiat-to-crypto onramp is a financial gateway that allows users to purchase digital assets using traditional fiat currencies, such as euros (EUR), US dollars (USD), or other supported national currencies. With Sheepy’s onramp solution, users can complete these transactions using familiar payment methods like Visa, Mastercard, and Apple Pay. Once the payment is confirmed, the selected cryptocurrency is delivered to the designated wallet, making the process smooth and immediate.

This feature is particularly valuable for merchants aiming to expand their payment options by offering crypto purchases to customers without prior experience in digital asset handling. It also removes common entry barriers to the crypto ecosystem by enabling real-time conversion directly at checkout. Sheepy’s onramp service is fully integrated into its broader platform, ensuring compliance, security, and ease of use for both end users and merchants.
