Solana Payments Live: Accept SOL, USDC & USDT Stablecoins on Solana with BitPay
BitPay now supports Solana network payments, unlocking a fast, affordable way to accept crypto from one of the most active blockchain communities. With no additional setup required, all kinds of businesses can immediately start accepting Solana network payments, including SOL tokens and stablecoins USDC and USDT on Solana.
Why Solana?
Solana is one of the fastest-growing blockchain networks, known for its ultra-low fees, lightning-fast transaction speeds, and thriving ecosystem. With a market cap consistently ranking among the top ten cryptocurrencies and a rapidly expanding user base, Solana is becoming a preferred choice for cost-effective crypto payments. Its high throughput means payments are both fast and reliable. Moreover, stablecoins like USDC and USDT are becoming increasingly popular for all types of transactions, including cross-border payments and large order value transactions.
What this means for merchants
For merchants, this translates to a wider network of crypto customers making faster, cheaper transactions. With BitPay, accepting Solana payments is seamless. Existing BitPay merchants can start accepting Solana payments immediately, requiring no additional setup or integrations. This makes it easy to tap into a dynamic, tech-forward community of crypto spenders using one of the most scalable blockchains available today.
Here’s what merchants can expect from accepting Solana payments.
Reach new customers
BitPay merchants now have access to Solana’s vast user base. Many crypto users favor transactions using Solana’s SOL token, as well as stablecoins USDC and USDT, due to its exceptionally low fees and fast transaction times. Some SOL holders may even be making Solana payments to take profits on their gains without having to sell crypto. That means access to customers who wouldn’t necessarily have made a purchase with fiat.
Smooth payment experience
Customers can pay with SOL, USDC, or USDT from any wallet that supports Solana. Transactions are confirmed quickly with minimal network fees, creating a fast, cost-effective checkout experience that benefits both merchants and buyers.
Accept payments anywhere - on website, via email, or in-person
With BitPay, merchants can accept Solana payments online, via email invoices, or in person via a simple checkout link. No technical expertise is required.
Expanded coverage for stablecoin payments
Stablecoin payments are on the rise, and global adoption is accelerating across industries thanks to their price stability and efficiency. Due in large part to its speed and minimal fees, Solana has become a leading network for transactions using stablecoins like USDC and USDT.
BitPay now supports both USDC and USDT on the Solana network, giving merchants even more flexibility when accepting crypto payments. Businesses benefit from near-instant transactions and next-day settlement in fiat, helping to streamline cash flow while reducing volatility risks.
With this expanded support, BitPay merchants can meet growing demand, offer customers more options at checkout, and enjoy the Solana blockchain's performance benefits.
