MoonPay acquires North Capital in over $60M all-stock deal

MoonPay has agreed to acquire North Capital in an all-stock transaction valued at more than $60 million. The deal brings US broker-dealer, trading, and investment infrastructure into MoonPay's ecosystem as the company expands its operations into tokenized securities.

Operational Infrastructure

The acquisition centers on adding specific regulatory and trading capabilities to MoonPay's existing platform. North Capital provides the broker-dealer framework necessary for handling securities transactions. This infrastructure supports the trading and investment functions that MoonPay is integrating into its current digital asset services. The move positions MoonPay to operate within the US securities market structure while maintaining its focus on tokenized assets.

Deal Structure and Next Steps

The transaction is structured entirely as a stock exchange, with no cash component mentioned in the agreement. The total value is stated to exceed $60 million. No definitive agreement or final filing has been cited as the next milestone in the available information. The integration of North Capital's broker-dealer status will allow MoonPay to offer compliant trading and investment products for tokenized securities. Investors should watch for the formal closing of the all-stock deal and any subsequent regulatory filings that confirm the operational transition of the acquired infrastructure.
