Pi Network Wallet adds TransFi fiat entry! Covers over 85 markets, supporting GCash/Apple Pay to purchase Pi.

To address the ongoing feedback from users regarding Onramp Money payment issues, the Pi Network Wallet has undergone a significant update - the addition of a third-party fiat entry service provider, TransFi. The Lithuanian fintech company TransFi supports users from over 85 markets worldwide to purchase Pi coin in a single step using credit cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and more than 250 other payment methods, significantly simplifying the Pi pioneer coin acquisition process. Users in the Philippines can now purchase Pi directly through the local payment application GCash, while users in Hungary can enjoy more competitive Exchange Rates.

[Pi Network Wallet Integration TransFi fiat Channel] The Pi Network team has officially added the financial technology company TransFi as a new Fiat On-Ramp service provider in the latest wallet update. This means that Pi pioneers can now use fiat to purchase Pi coins through three service providers: Banxa, Onramp Money, and TransFi.

  • Launch Timing: This update is released in response to users' ongoing complaints about payment issues with the Onramp Money platform (particularly the feedback regarding failed purchases of Pi coin).
  • User Discovery: Shortly after Onramp Money confirmed that its Pi purchasing service would be postponed until August 2025, users found a new TransFi option within the Pi Wallet.
  • Core Advantage: The addition of TransFi provides Pi pioneers with a One-Step Purchase convenient experience, allowing users to no longer rely on traditional methods such as complex and risky over-the-counter trading (P2P), exchange transfers, or closed mainnet transfers.

【TransFi: Powerful Global Payment Coverage Capability】 TransFi, based in Vilnius, Lithuania, brings powerful global coverage to the Pi Network payment ecosystem.

  • Coverage: Supports purchasing Pi coin with fiat in over 85 markets (85+ Markets).
  • Payment Methods: Over 250 Payment Methods are available, including credit/debit cards (Visa, Mastercard), Apple Pay, Google Pay, Open Banking, and Real-Time Networks.
  • Regional Convenience: This move significantly enhances the Easy Pi Purchase experience for Pi pioneers in Asia, Europe, and other regions, lowering the operational threshold.
  • Localization Case:
    • Philippine users: You can now directly purchase Pi coin through the local mainstream payment app GCash, greatly enhancing convenience.
    • Hungarian users: Feedback that the Exchange Rates provided by TransFi are more competitive than existing options.

【Update Background: Responding to Onramp Money Service Delays】 The strategic move to integrate TransFi directly stems from the service delay issues of the existing partner Onramp Money.

  • Onramp Money Status: Onramp Money has stated in an update that despite receiving many user inquiries about "Missing Pi Coins", its integration work with Pi Network is still ongoing, and the expected official launch time has been postponed to August 2025.
  • User Advice: Onramp Money urges users to pause transactions (Avoid Transactions) until the system is complete, and promises that all stuck transactions will be resolved once the system is live.
  • Pi Network's Response: During the technical issues with Onramp Money, integrating TransFi ensured that pioneers could continuously purchase Pi coin directly through fiat channels.

[Safety and Compliance Endorsement] It is worth noting that TransFi has official certifications, including ISO 27001 (Information Security Management System) and AICPA SOC (System and Organization Control Report). These certifications provide credibility for the growth of Pi Network and ensure that its compliance and security are the focus.

[Significance: Enhancing the Usability and Coverage of the Pi Ecosystem] The Pi Network's integration with TransFi effectively addresses the issues users face when using existing payment options (especially Onramp Money), and provides pioneers with greater flexibility through Expanded On-Ramp Choices.

  • Milestone Achieved: With the addition of TransFi (along with Banxa), the Pi Network's fiat on-ramp service now covers over 100 countries (100+ Countries).
  • Vision Alignment: This move strongly promotes the core goal of Pi Network "Democratize Crypto Access", enabling more users around the world to easily join the Pi ecosystem.

Conclusion: The integration of TransFi is a timely and important response by Pi Network to the pain points of users purchasing fiat coins. By providing broader geographical coverage, diversified payment methods, and a more convenient operational process (such as direct purchase through GCash in the Philippines), Pi Network significantly enhances the user experience and ecological attractiveness of its payment infrastructure. While waiting for the restoration of Onramp Money services, TransFi provides a stable and reliable channel for purchasing Pi coins for global Pi pioneers, marking a key step in the project's improvement of ecological infrastructure as it progresses towards an open mainnet. Pioneers should pay attention to official channels for the latest status and applicable regional information of various entry service providers.
