### 2/5 — Moon pay

*2026-08-30, version 2.0.51*

Not enough support

### 1/5 — Scam

*2026-07-31, version 2.0.48*

This people are using and tricking people

### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2026-07-30, version 2.0.48*

Too many issues would not recommend

### 1/5 — Absolutely dreadful experience

*2026-07-24, version 2.0.48*

I transferred funds to MoonPay, only to have my account suspended without any warning or explanation. There was nothing in the app to tell me what had happened, so I had to contact support just to find out why I could no longer use my account.

I was eventually told they couldn't provide any further information due to compliance requirements. I understand that compliance checks are necessary, but that doesn't excuse the complete lack of communication. Customers should at least be told what's happening and what they can expect next.

The app itself was rubbish. It gave no indication that my account had been suspended or why I couldn't use it, leaving me to chase support for answers.

Customer support was equally poor. Responses were slow, generic and didn't answer my questions.

Having your account suspended after transferring funds, with no warning, no explanation in the app and no meaningful communication, is a terrible customer experience. Based on my experience, even if I could, I won't be using MoonPay again.

### 1/5 — Trash

*2026-07-23, version 2.0.48*

If I could give zero stars I would without a doubt. I’ve had the worst experience with trying to buy and transfer crypto through this app. $150 worth of my hard earned money was in limbo for 3 days as I tried to navigate their abysmal support system. You will not speak with a human representative. You will have to solve your problem with AI. I ended up resolving the issue but I recommend cashapp for your bitcoin transfer needs. I absolutely will never redownload and use this app.

### 5/5 — Great Way to Buy Crypto

*2026-07-19, version 2.0.47*

Great App. Fast and sometimes no fee too.  Never seen anyone else offer no fee to purchase BTC.   Definitely highly recommend Moon Pay.

### 5/5 — Best

*2026-07-18, version 2.0.47*

Best coins app ever

### 5/5 — Bitcoin

*2026-07-16, version 2.0.47*

Having hassle buying bitcoin. The foundation bank and moonpay had made it easy

### 2/5 — What’s with the new interface and restrictions?

*2026-07-16, version 2.0.47*

I’ve had and been using this platform to buy and transfer my crypto to my wallets and multiple investments for years and all of a sudden the new updated version has restrictions to which when I’m trying to verify my identity it’s not going through. I no longer see assets I would buy or check up on(USDT Tron) . MoonPay has never given any problems until now what happened? The old interface was more user friendly and straightforward.

### 2/5 — Poor customer service

*2026-07-04, version 2.0.46*

I only gave 2 stars because the 1st few months went ok. Then my account was restricted for an unknown reason. I requested a review only to be told a violation of ToS!? What does that mean? How can someone violate the ToS when you simply buy BTC and then transfer it to a wallet? I used Exodus. That’s not fraudulent nor uncommon. I would not recommend to anyone to waste their time with Moonpay. From reading the other reviews it is common for them to shut you down without explanation or warning.

### 1/5 — Can’t buy anything

*2026-08-30, version 2.0.51*

Horrible tried several ways can’t purchase anything

### 1/5 — It’s really rubbish

*2026-08-30, version 2.0.51*

They restricted my account without any reason and when I asked the reason they told me we are not able to tell you and you can’t activate it again . I had lots of problems with my buying crypto just for the only time I tried.
It’s really rubbish.

### 1/5 — Scam

*2026-08-29, version 2.0.51*

Moonpay is a scam. They are a 3rd party app that relies on other apps. Soon everyone using it will see this and use stand alone apps.  By doing so you take business from moonpay and it will save you money. No need to bounce between apps.  If you accidentally or unknowingly violate their terms of service, they will permanently deactivate your account and will not tell you what you did wrong. I have already gotten 3 of my friends to stop using moonpay. I will do my best to facilitate this company’s demise

### 1/5 — Transaction failure SCAM

*2026-08-23, version 2.0.49*

I bought solana through there. Didnt arrive its been 3 days now and support center isnt helping with anything. my last resort is emailing them. RECOMMEND NOT BUYING

### 1/5 — Expensive

*2026-08-21, version 2.0.49*

Moon pay fees higher then bitcoin network fees. So your charged twice for one transaction. And it’s awful slow. 25min to touch down in wallet

### 1/5 — Update UI

*2026-08-21*

Die App wird von Update zu Update unübersichtlicher. Keine Ahnung wie man auf die Idee kommen kann, das Interface so aussehen zu lassen. Vorher war alles gut..

**Developer response:** Hey there,

We’re sorry the updated interface feels less clear and harder to navigate than before. We appreciate your honest feedback and encourage you to share more details with our team: https://support.moonpay.com

### 1/5 — Rpasion

*2026-08-20, version 2.0.49*

I got a text that I need to download moonpay from Transak payment in order for me to get the money 9500 that I applied for a loan I don’t remember applying for the loan. Anyway I listen and I did and told me to install my debit card and I did, to my surprise I got tons of charges without my permission and promised for refund after they took all my money. Want me to download PayPal so that they can refund me through PayPal. I said no , if you took out from my bank card you can do refund me through there. I had to close that account. I lost my money It’s a big scam .

### 1/5 — Stay away

*2026-08-13, version 2.0.49*

Trying to sell and receive my money but the app is asking for personal details such as an Id. The funny thing is that when it was for them to get my money they didn’t ask for anything!

### 1/5 — The app is horrible

*2026-08-05, version 2.0.49*

I use Rumble Wallet and this has been a nightmare.  Crypto is a complete scam.  You have to deposit $20 to get paid out, and the app is not user friendly and “support “ is a joke.

### 1/5 — F

*2026-08-03, version 2.0.49*

I wouldn't spend money on this app , as I've got money in there now , struggling to sell , withdraw my money , they amount of time and hours of read still haven't got my money.

### 5/5 — Like Oiled Velvet

*2026-08-27, version 2.0.50*

Like a cat after a freshly waxed moon phase covered in Astroglyde, such a pleasure it’s a treasure

### 5/5 — Best Crypto & BTC

*2026-08-26, version 2.0.50*

Wonderful

### 5/5 — Love it

*2026-08-11, version 2.0.49*

I’ll gladly give a MoonPay 5% instead of allowing the other exchanges to freeze your account for no valid reason. Especially when the end goal is 5000%!!

### 5/5 — $ANSEM

*2026-08-06, version 2.0.49*

The Black Bull

### 5/5 — Best crypto app review. Highly recommend!!

*2026-08-06, version 2.0.49*

My experience with this platform was very disappointing. I lost approximately $62,000 in what turned out to be a crypto scam after my account got hacked into . Thankfully, I got back part of my funds. I encourage anyone considering this platform to do thorough research and exercise extreme caution before investing.

### 5/5 — Reliable

*2026-08-05, version 2.0.49*

MoonPay is very reliable and convenient for all my cryptocurrency transactions and needs!!!

### 5/5 — MOONiNG

*2026-08-03, version 2.0.49*

Secure and quick transactions

### 5/5 — Very good

*2026-07-31, version 2.0.48*

Number 1

### 5/5 — Most exceedingly remarkable and extremely exceptional cryptocurrency recovery technology expertise!!

*2026-07-27, version 2.0.48*

Please read carefully, I lost my money few weeks ago in bitcoin investment.
I lost over £155,065 they denied my withdrawal request and also left it pending. I reached out to them and they never responded back to my emails and calls. They eventually locked me out of my account I had reach out a recovery experts at DsmartGuru @ gMailcom to help me recover all my money back. They're the best when it comes to crypto recovery. Thankfully I have gotten my money back.

### 5/5 — Freedom

*2026-07-24, version 2.0.48*

I totally love the freedom that MoonPay gives you to buy crypto and send anywhere with so many different options on how to buy
