In a strategic move to enhance user accessibility, Pi Network has officially integrated TransFi as its third fiat on-ramp, joining Banxa and Onramp Money. This development comes in response to persistent technical issues and transaction delays plaguing Onramp Money, which recently announced that Pi purchases would remain unavailable until August 2025.
TransFi’s inclusion marks a significant upgrade to Pi Network’s payment infrastructure. Users can now purchase Pi coins directly using popular payment methods such as credit cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and even local apps like GCash in the Philippines. With support for over 250 payment methods across 85+ countries, TransFi brings a global reach that aligns with Pi Network’s mission to democratize access to cryptocurrency.
Previously, Pi Network users often had to navigate complex and risky peer-to-peer trades or rely on limited exchange options. The integration of TransFi simplifies this process, allowing for seamless fiat-to-Pi transactions in a single step. This not only improves user experience but also strengthens the network’s credibility, as TransFi holds certifications like ISO 27001 and AICPA SOC.
The timing of this expansion is critical. Onramp Money’s delayed integration has led to user frustration, with many reporting missing Pi coin transactions and stalled purchases. Pi Network’s swift action to onboard TransFi demonstrates its commitment to resolving these issues and providing reliable alternatives.
As Pi Network continues to grow, the addition of TransFi is a clear signal that the project is prioritizing user trust, security, and global accessibility. With three fiat on-ramps now in place, the platform is better equipped to support its expanding community of Pioneers and drive broader adoption of the Pi coin.
