KuCoin Expands Crypto Payments to Over 100 Swiss SPAR Stores

KuCoin's payment arm, KuCoin Pay, is now accepted at over 100 SPAR supermarket locations in Switzerland.
The integration is facilitated by DFX.swiss, expanding an existing crypto payment system initially launched in August 2025 with Binance Pay.
Customers can make purchases by scanning an OpenCryptoQR code using the KuCoin app, with zero gas fees and instant fiat settlements for merchants.
The use of stablecoins for transactions addresses price volatility concerns, reflecting a trend towards their real-world application.
Despite competition from TWINT, which dominates the Swiss mobile payment market, Switzerland's favorable regulatory environment supports crypto adoption.
KuCoin aims to increase crypto utility and enhance shopping experiences as part of its global expansion strategy.
This move aligns with KuCoin's efforts to strengthen its international presence and collaborate within regulated frameworks.
