Checkout is New Crypto Battleground: Why Web3 Apps are Bringing Fiat On-Ramps In-House

A user can understand a Web3 app, like what it offers, connect a wallet, choose an asset, and still disappear at the moment that matters most: when money has to move. Sometimes a card is declined. The buyer is sometimes redirected to a site they’ve never visited before. Sometimes identity checks restart halfway through the process. On mobile, even one awkward handoff can make the whole thing feel less like a purchase and more like opening a bank account. That has changed the product conversation around crypto. For years, apps competed on token access, yields, trading features, and network support.
