A wrong click or an unsafe smart contract can turn a simple transaction into a painful loss.
To help users feel more confident, MetaMask has introduced Transaction Shield, a new opt-in security feature that adds coverage, priority support, and clearer protection signals directly inside the wallet.
Extra Confidence for Everyday Users
Transaction Shield builds on MetaMask’s existing security system, which already screens transactions through automated checks of contract behavior and safety. The new subscription adds loss protection for any transaction that MetaMask deems safe. Subscribers can receive coverage up to ten thousand dollars each month across one hundred eligible transactions, along with around-the-clock priority support.
The subscription costs $9.9 per month or $99 annually, and users can try it free for fourteen days. MetaMask says the goal is to give people simple, familiar peace of mind while navigating blockchain apps. For example, a beginner swapping tokens through the Uniswap interface would see clear in-app notices showing the transaction is covered before confirming it.

Transaction Shield works today on desktop, with mobile support coming soon. It currently covers many major networks, including Ethereum, Linea, Arbitrum, Avalanche, Optimism, Base, Polygon, BSC, and Sei. Coverage applies at the moment of the transaction itself. It does not cover issues like compromised wallets, stolen recovery phrases, or losses from exploited protocols.
