Crypto.com and Stripe Partnership Enables Crypto Payments for U.S. Shoppers
Crypto.com and Stripe have partnered to integrate cryptocurrency payments into everyday online shopping in the United States.
- Customers can pay directly with digital assets without converting to cash first.
- The payment option will appear on checkout pages for selected Stripe merchants.
- After selecting crypto, buyers scan a QR code and approve the payment via the Crypto.com app.
- Transactions are completed in seconds using Stripe's existing checkout setup.
- Merchants do not need additional systems to accept crypto payments.
- Funds are settled normally alongside card and wallet payments, reducing risk for sellers.
Growing Interest in Crypto Payments
- Crypto.com aims to simplify crypto spending to the level of phone wallet usage.
- This partnership reflects rising interest in using digital currencies for daily transactions.
- Other companies like Walmart-backed OnePay are also venturing into crypto trading and custody services.
- Rumble, in collaboration with Tether and MoonPay, launched a crypto wallet for digital creators.
Crypto.com and Stripe expect their partnership to expand to more markets as demand for crypto payments grows, marking a shift towards practical use of digital currencies in online retail.
