MoonPay has received a Money Transmitter License from the Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions. 
This license allows the company to expand its services in the state, according to a press release shared with crypto.news. This means that Wisconsin residents can now use MoonPay Balance to deposit funds for fee-free purchases, excluding ecosystem and network fees. 
Wisconsin, the 20th most populous U.S. state, has <a href="https://crypto.news/wisconsin-adds-447k-shares-to-blackrock-bitcoin-etf-holdings/" target="_blank">shown increasing interest</a> in crypto. Last year, it became the first state government to buy Bitcoin.&nbsp; 
The addition of Wisconsin brings MoonPay’s total MTL count to 46, reflecting its push for regulatory approvals across the U.S. 
“With this license, we reinforce our commitment to compliance and consumer-first innovation,” said MoonPay co-founder and CEO Ivan Soto-Wright. “This milestone strengthens our position as a fully regulated platform.”
