Gelato and Morpho to offer embedded crypto-backed loans for wallets,
brokers, and fintech apps. By Chainwire.
Zug, Switzerland. June 25, 2025. Chainwire. Gelato.
The Web3 developer cloud platform, together with Morpho, the decentralized lending protocol
behind some of the most trusted
lending infrastructure in Ethereum, today announced the launch of embedded crypto-backed loans.
The new partnership enables wallets, brokers, and fintech apps to allow the
arousers to instantly borrow stablecoins, like USDC, using their crypto assets askeleateral.
The borrowing flow has a simple, web-to-like experience that is non-custodial
and fully on-chain. By combining Gelato's smart wallet SDK with Morpho's permissionless
lending markets, the two teams offer a complete borrowing flow that platforms can securely
integrate in days. Crypto-backed loans are fully non-custodial and on-chain, governed
entirely by smart contracts. Users can initiate loans in an on-chain bank account powered by embedded wallet infrastructure,
7,702 powered smart accounts, gasless transactions, and the ability to execute multiple transactions
in a single click.
Morpho, which Coinbase recently partnered with to enable similar BTC-backed loans, brings
proven lending infrastructure with over $6.5 billion
in total value locked. Gelato's smart wallet SDK, used by companies such as Safe, Infinex,
and Gnosispay, handles account abstraction, one-click onboarding, and gas sponsorship,
enabling applications to deliver modern, web-to-style user experiences. Greater than,
we're excited to see more platforms bring crypto-backed loans to users in a greater
than self-custodial way," said Paul Frambot, CEO of Morpho Labs.
Morpho is built greater than to be integrated, and Gelato makes it easy to deliver a seamless
UX on top.
Embedded crypto-backed loans are designed to meet the needs of both consumer and institutional
users,
offering a simple, intuitive interface while preserving
Thenon custodial guarantees that users and platforms increasingly expect.
Key features Borrow USDC in OneClick using crypto assets like BTC as collateral.
Fully non-custodial and on-chain. No credit checks required.
OneClick wallet creation via email, social login, or
PASCIs.
EIP 7702 powered smart wallet account.
Embedded UX with full brand control.
Gasless transactions across plus 50 EVM chains.
Later this year, Gelato will introduce new security and recovery features to extend the
smart wallet stack.
These include PASCI authentication, multi-signer two-factor approvals using regulated custodians,
and on-chain recovery modules tied to email or social logins.
All upgrades are implemented at the smart contract level to maintain full decentralization.
A full demo of the product is available at https://morfo-a.demo.gelato.cloud, showcasing the end-to-end borrowing experience
from wallet creation to BTC collateralization and loan issuance. Embedded crypto-backed loans are
now available in beta on Polygon, Arbitrum, Optimism, and Scroll, with support for Katana coming soon.
Gelato and Morpho are working closely with additional chain teams to expand deployment
in the months ahead.
