MoonPay launches Labs accelerator to back early-stage Web3 startups

MoonPay launches Labs accelerator to back early-stage Web3 startups

MoonPay has announced the launch of MoonPay Labs, an accelerator designed to support pre-seed and seed-stage Web3 technical teams through capital, product support, and long-term growth strategies.

MoonPay Labs will operate under an evergreen model by selecting up to five high-potential startups annually to receive personalized, ongoing support, according to a press release sent to crypto.news. The program is geared toward technical teams building in high-growth Web3 sectors like stablecoin infrastructure, agentic frameworks, decentralized finance , SocialFi, and Web3 commerce.

“MoonPay’s unique position within the ecosystem allows us to identify and accelerate high-value projects across emerging use cases,”said Abhay M, VP of Corporate Development and Investments at MoonPay. “MoonPay Labs is designed to support these trailblazing builders by providing founder-centric tailored support that offers them a competitive edge in company building,”

MoonGate selected as the first MoonPay Labs participant

Startups in the accelerator will benefit from a structured go-to-market framework that includes UX optimization workshops, token launch and listing advisory, access to MoonPay’s developer tools and product sandbox, and direct feedback from the company’s developer network.

The first team accepted into MoonPay Labs is MoonGate, a project focused on simplifying memecoin purchases by allowing users to buy directly with credit and debit cards. MoonGate aims to make memecoins more accessible to mainstream users.

Alongside early-stage capital, MoonPay Labs may offer follow-up funding as selected teams scale, enabling founders to reduce dilution ahead of a priced Series A.

MoonPay Labs is housed within the company’s Corporate Development group, which also oversees MoonPay Ventures—a venture arm that has invested in over 30 Web3 companies since launching in 2023.
